My advice would be to instead of putting all your money in one or the
other, split it up among several players, say equal dollar amounts in
EOG, BEXP, WLL and NOG, perhaps even others like HESS
Try to buy these on days when the crude price is down not up as you
can pay more than you need to on days the crude price is soaring.
I used to think EOG was a buy when its share price dropped below the
futures contract price of a bbl of light sweet crude on CNBC, but its
been a while since shares have been that low.
Be aware that all of these stocks are bets that the price of ND crude
and nat gas will continue to rise, and all of the stocks will get
cheaper if the dollar rises and crude and nat gas prices decline. So
all these stocks are commodity price plays as well as drilling success
plays, so there is both hydrocarbon market risk and drilling risk
built into the share prices. Buy these with your eyes wide open and
recognize that the share price rise we have seen in 2008 is due to a
combination of high crude and nat gas prices as well as recent
drilling success, and that if either falter the shares will not
continue to rise and could drop off pretty quickly as people who
bought them to make a quick buck exit just as rapidly.

I would ask this person who is your knowledgable source if they get
any fees, kickback, or commissions for recommending certain stocks or
companies, or if their fees are strickly rasied from the one time $
300 fee..
