Two Nights of Hog Hunting with Guide Hank

At Pig Problem, persistence pays off. Hunting Wild Hogs at night is never predictable—some nights, the Pigs are everywhere, and others, they seem to disappear into thin air. But one thing is always true: if you keep at it, the opportunity will come.

Guide Hank recently led a Two-Night Thermal Hunt that tested patience, but in the end, determination won out.

Night 1:

Never Give Up

The night started slow. Field after field, the Thermal Scanners came up empty. At times, it looked like the night might end without a single shot fired. But if there’s one thing about Hog Hunting, it’s that things can change in an instant.

On the very last field of the night, a Wild Pig finally stepped out. The team moved into position, but just as they were setting up, a group of deer spooked and bolted. For a second, it looked like the opportunity might slip away—but luck was on their side. The deer ran off in the opposite direction, and the Pig stayed put just long enough for a clean shot. One Hog Down, and what looked like a lost cause turned into a Successful Hunt.

Night 2:

Right Place, Right Time

The second night started off much like the first. The first field checked was empty, but instead of moving on immediately, the team decided to wait. Sometimes, patience is key.

Just as they were about to leave, movement flickered on the Thermal. Hogs had finally moved in. The Hunters got set up and took their shot, dropping one as the rest of the Sounder scattered into the night. Another great success.

The Thrill of the Hunt

Thermal Hog Hunting is unpredictable, but that’s what makes it so exciting. Every night brings a different challenge, and every Hog Hunt is a reminder that persistence pays off. Whether it’s chasing Wild Hogs across multiple fields or waiting them out in the right spot, the reward is always worth it.
