The farmer\ranchers do assume liability of you, as a stranger, walking armed on their land and that could be more destructive than the hogs so there is a reason for the charges. Find a family or friend with land and they do exist but it's not easy hunting on land that hasn't been scouted or hogs that aren't used to visiting a certain place at a certain time.
Not free but really cheap. Look on Craigslist. The average price is between $100-$200. Of course it gos way up. I saw an add in the thrifty nickel that hog hunts around Waco for $50. Look at it this way. Hog hunting is THOUSANDS cheaper then Disney land...and funner.
This is just an example off craigslist. You can find way cheaper hunts then this(I have lots of hunts saved in email for $150 all you can kill, but there mine, dog eat dog world):
