Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Clayon

At Pig Problem, we’ve seen just about everything on a Hunt. Wild Hogs are unpredictable, the terrain can be challenging. Guide Clayton recently led a Hog Hunt that started with some unexpected challenges and ended with a banger in Wild Hog Hunting.

A Hunt to Remember

The first field of the night gave us a quick opportunity—a Single Pig stepped out, and thankfully, it was just 200 yards from the Hunting Van. Dennis was an incredible guy and his family—positive, determined, and just happy to be out there. And when that Pig presented itself, the group made it count. One shot, one Hog Down. Unfortunately, that was the only Wild Pig we saw all night. After covering multiple Farm Felds and scanning every likely spot, the Wild Hogs just weren’t cooperating.

After a slow first night, the second night had to be better… right?

Wrong. The Pigs had vanished. We hit as many spots we could, scanning with thermal, watching tree lines, and hoping for even a glimpse of movement. But the fields were empty, and the night ended without a single shot fired. Some nights are like that. Hogs are smart—they move constantly, and when they don’t want to be found, they won’t be.

The Hunt Goes On

The Thermal Hog Hunt was an experience to remember. That’s the reality of Wild Hog Hunting—every night is different, and you never know what you’re going to get. Whether it’s a Sounder in the perfect spot or a night of tracking ghosts, it’s always an adventure.Thankfully there was no ghost pigs.

A Night Hunt with Pig Problem

Hog Hunting is always unpredictable, and every Thermal Hunt tells a different story. Some nights, we cover miles scanning field after field, while others, the action starts right away. That was the case on a recent 1 Night Hog Hunt led by Guide Clayton, where the first field we checked turned out to be the only one we needed.

Our group rolled out at sunset, ready for a night of Thermal Hog Hunting. It didn’t take long to find what we were looking for. As we pulled up to the first field, a Lone Hog stepped out about 200 yards from the van—a perfect setup. With pew pews dialed in and everyone in position, the Hunter took his shot. A clean hit Dropped the Hog right where it stood, making for a quick and Ethical Harvest.

Though the night was quiet after that first successful shot, the team was in good spirits. Sometimes, all it takes is one well-placed shot to make the Hunting Trip a success. Another Guided Hog Hunt in the books, another story to tell, and another Wild Hog taken off the land.

At Pig Problem, we know that every Hog Hunter comes with their own story, and we’re here to make sure they leave with a great one. Whether it’s your First Hog or your hundredth, we’re ready to get you on target.

Putting in the Work:

A Two-Night Hunt with Pig Problem

Not every Hunt is a nonstop shootout—but that’s what makes Hog Hunting so rewarding. Some nights, the Pigs are everywhere. Other nights, you have to work for every opportunity. That’s exactly what Guide Hank and his Hunters experienced on a recent 2 Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem.

Night 1:

Hard Work Pays Off

The first night was slow, but that didn’t stop them. With persistence and a lot of walking, they finally got an opportunity—and made it count. One Hog Down, proving that sometimes success in the field comes from sheer determination. Wild Hogs are smart, constantly adapting to Hunting Pressure and changing their routines. When they don’t show up where you expect, you have to put in the miles, and that’s exactly what Hank and his Hog Hunters did.

Night 2:

The Wild Card of Hog Hunting

The second night, the Pigs stayed hidden. No fresh tracks, no movement—just an empty landscape under the Thermal Equipment. It’s easy to wonder why, but the reality is, Hogs don’t always play by the rules.

Wild Hogs are Nocturnal, but they don’t move the same way every night. Their patterns change based on weather, moon phase, food availability, and Hunting pressure. If they’ve been spooked recently, they’ll hole up in thick cover and wait until well past dawn to move. Other times, they’ll feed in a completely different area, miles away from where they were the night before. It’s what makes Thermal Hunting so unpredictable—and so exciting.

Even on slow nights, every Guided Hunt is a learning experience. Whether you’re Tracking Pigs, reading fresh sign, or just soaking in the thrill of the chase, there’s no such thing as a wasted night in the field. That’s why we do this—because every Night Hunt tells a story.

Book Your Hunt

Ready to put in the work and Chase Down Wild Hogs under the stars? Pig Problem offers Guided Thermal Hog Hunts that put you in the action. Whether it’s a high-paced shoot or a night that tests your patience, one thing’s for sure—you’ll leave with an Hunting Adventure to remember.

Hunting The Toughest Animals In America

Two Nights in the Fields:

A Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton

At Pig Problem, every Wild Hog Hunt is different. Some nights, the Pigs seem to be everywhere. Other nights, they give us the slip. But no matter what, there’s always something to take away from the experience. Guide Clayton recently led a 2 Night Hog Hunt, and here’s how it went.

Night 1:

The Silent Hunt and the Toughest Pig Around

The highlight of the night was the sheer resilience of one particular Hog. “This pig took like nine rounds and a couple more with a rifle from 10 feet away and was still trying to get up,” Clayton said. “I want to have the same resilience that some of these pigs can have. It is absolutely amazing to see how mentally and physically tough an animal can be when it wants to live. They have a why so they can survive any how.”

Wild Hogs are notorious for their toughness, but every now and then, we come across one that reminds us just how relentless nature can be.

Night 2:

The Pigs Win This Round

As every Hunter knows, success isn’t guaranteed. After the action of the first night, night two was a different story. The Pigs were nowhere to be found. Some nights, they seem to vanish into thin air, slipping through the fields undetected. That’s part of what makes Hog Hunting a tough hunting sport —you never know what the night will bring.

Even when the Wild Pigs get the upper hand, there’s always something to take away from the Thermal Hunt. Whether it’s a quiet moment under the stars, the thrill of a tough fight, or just time spent outdoors, every Hog Hunt tells a story.

A One-Night Hog Hunt with Clayton

At Pig Problem, every Wild Hog Hunt is unique. Some nights are fast-paced, with Pigs on the Move and Hunters working hard to get into position. Other nights, everything falls into place, making for a smooth and Efficient Hunt. This was one of those nights.

Guide Clayton led the Hog Hunt, but the real credit went to Zev for scouting ahead and finding the Hogs. With the right setup, all that was left was to move in. The Hog Hunters stayed focused, took their shots, and successfully brought down a Wild Hog.

After a long night in the field, exhaustion set in, but the results spoke for themselves. Another Successful Hunt, another Great Hunting Experience for the hunters. Nights like these remind us that preparation, teamwork, and patience always pay off. If you’re ready for your own Thermal Hog Hunting adventure, Pig Problem is the place to be. The Wild Pigs are out there—you just have to go after them.

Late-Night Success:

A Two-Night Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton

Hog Hunting is always an adventure, but some Hog Hunts stand out as particularly memorable. That was the case for Glenn and Erik, two Returning Hunters who joined Guide Clayton for another action-packed Two-Night Thermal Hunt with Pig Problem. Having Hunted with Clayton the previous year, they knew they were in for a good time—and the results did not disappoint.

Night One:

Off to a Strong Start

From the start, it was clear that Glenn and Erik were excited to be back in the fields, ready to take down some Hogs. Their first night out, the trio worked together to track a group of pigs in the fields, using their Thermal Equipment to scan the landscape. With a well-placed shot, they put a solid Wild Boar on the ground, kicking off the Boar Hunt on a high note.

For these guys, it wasn’t just about the Hunt—it was about the experience. Wild Hog Hunting alongside a guide they already knew and trusted made the night feel less like a Guided Hunting Trip and more like a hunt with old friends.

Night Two:

A Hunt to Remember

The second night turned into an endurance test, pushing well into the early morning hours. In a now-familiar pattern, the Wild Hog Hunt stretched all the way to 5 AM, proving once again that patience and persistence pay off in Thermal Hog Hunting.

The wind was not in their favor, blowing directly toward the Pigs from the van. Knowing they had to adjust their strategy, Clayton and the Hunters made a quick decision—they booked it across the field in a last-ditch effort to get into a better position. Clayton climbed onto a pivot to get a better vantage point, hoping the Wild Pigs hadn’t moved. Miraculously, they were still right where they had been, offering the perfect opportunity for a clean shot.

But this Thermal Hunt wasn’t just about strategy and skill—it also came with some unexpected humor. As the team settled into position, the silence of the night was suddenly interrupted. One of the Hunters, unintentionally lightened the mood, causing a brief but hilarious pause in the action. Holding in their laughter was almost as difficult as the stalk itself, but once they regained composure, they got back to business and successfully dropped two Wild Hogs before the night was over.

The Thrill of the Hunt

For Glenn and Erik, we hope this Hunting Trip was more than just another Pig Hunt—it was a chance to return to the fields, enjoy the challenge, and create new memories. For Clayton, it was another reminder of why he loves Guiding Hunts. He might joke that luck plays a big role in his success, but his ability to adapt, make quick decisions, and keep the hunt fun and engaging is what keeps Hog Hunters coming back year after year.

These two hunters have already made it clear—they’ll be back next year for another Unforgettable Hunt. Until then, the Farm Fields of Georgia will keep calling, and the hogs will keep running. But not for long.

Mothers Hunt Too

Putting in the Work for a Wild Hog

At Pig Problem, we love taking kids out and introducing them to the excitement of Hunting. There’s something special about watching a Young Hunter learn, grow, and experience Hog Hunting. Recently, Guide Clayton led a 1 Night Thermal Hog Hunt for a mother and son hunting trip - an adventure that proved just how rewarding the Hunt can be.

The Hunt:

Hard Work Pays Off

Hunting isn’t easy, and this Hog Hunt was no exception. The night was long, and the Hogs weren’t making it simple. But Clayton put in the work, covering ground, scanning fields, and adjusting tactics to get them on Pigs.

Finally, after hours of persistence, at 6 AM, their patience paid off - they took down a Wild Hog. That’s the thrill of the Wild Hunt. It’s not supposed to be easy. That’s what makes it worth it.

Why Getting Kids into Hunting Matters

Testing the Waters with Pig Problem:

A Four-Night Thermal Hog Hunt Recap

Guided by Clayton, three Seasoned Hog Hunters joined Pig Problem for a 4-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in South Georgia. These guys were no strangers to Night Hunting - they had been Hog Hunting with another Hunting Outfitter for years, but with their usual guide retiring, they decided to give Pig Problem a shot. They were used to putting down double-digit numbers of Hogs each night, which is a rare feat, not because of a lack of Pigs, but because most Hunters don’t capitalize on the opportunities when a field is full of them.

Night 1:

A Sounder and a Start

Photo: Guess What’s Better Than 0? ….1 @PigProblem

The Hog Hunt kicked off with high expectations. The group encountered a Sounder of Hogs early on, taking shots and managing to drop one Wild Pig. It wasn’t the massive numbers they were used to, but it was a start. The guys were getting a feel for the setup, Clayton’s guiding style, and the way Pig Problem Hunts.

Night 2:

A Mechanical Mishap and Midnight Repairs

Photo: Guess What Is Better Than 1? …..2 @PigProblem

Things got interesting on the second night, and not just because of the Wild Hog Hunting. Earlier that day, the Hunting Van had a tire rotation, but whoever worked on it forgot to tighten the lug nuts properly. By 2:30 AM, Clayton realized the van was wobbling badly, making it unsafe to drive. Luckily, Megan, our go-to assistant/manager/problem-solver, came to the rescue. She rolled in with a jack and all the tools needed to tighten everything up, saving Clayton from a roadside disaster.

After the unexpected pit stop, the guys got back to Thermal Hog Hunting around 3:30 AM and managed to take down two more Piggies before sunrise.

Night 3:

Precision Stalks Pay Off

Photo: Guess What’s… JUST KIDDING. Oh Yeah. Oh Yeah. Oh Yeah. @PigProblem

The third night was all about stealth and accuracy. They went on two separate stalks, each time finding a Single Hog, and each time dropping it clean. Some nights aren’t about chasing massive sounders it’s about making every shot count. Two pigs down, zero wasted opportunities.

Night 4:

The Fog Takes Over

The final night was a test of patience, but not because of the pigs. Thick fog rolled in, making Thermal Equipment nearly useless. Clayton said he couldn’t see more than 50 yards in front of him - even the Hog Hunting Van, parked just 100 yards away, disappeared in the haze. At 1:30 AM, with visibility still next to nothing, they called it a night.

Final Thoughts:

Did They Like Pig Problem?

Despite a slow first night and a fogged-out final night, the hunters got 5 Wild Hogs Down in three nights, dealt with a wild van situation, and got a full taste of what Hunting with Pig Problem is all about. It’s never just about numbers - it’s about adapting, making the most of every opportunity, and having a damn good time doing it.

So, did these guys like Pig Problem Inc enough to make it their new go-to Hog Hunting Outfitter? We sure hope so. But as always, the pigs will be here, the fields will be ready, and Clayton will be out there waiting for the next crew to take on the challenge.

A Two-Night Hunt with a Crew That Came to Kill

Some Hog Hunts stand out not just for the number of Hogs taken but for the way they go down. When Guide Zev took four Hunters out for a 2 Night Hunt run, he knew pretty quick - these guys were locked in.

That’s about as high a compliment as you’ll get from him. And it was well-earned.

Over two nights, the team dropped five Wild Hogs. The wind was a problem, shifting when it wasn’t supposed to, costing them some opportunities. But that’s Hog Hunting - adapt or go home. These guys stayed on point, made their shots count, and got it done.

If you want to see what a real Thermal Hog Hunt looks like, book your Hunting Trip with Pig Problem. Bring your A-game, and maybe - just maybe - you’ll get Zev’s seal of approval too.
