Night 2: Dream Thermal Hog Hunt

Night 2:

Night 2 of this 2-Night Hog Hunt with Pig Problem was the complete opposite of Night 1 — fast-moving, unpredictable, and packed with action from start to finish.

The night opened with a Large Sounder spotted in the corner of a field, prompting a long, patient stalk. The group closed to roughly 300 yards, but the hogs slowly worked their way into the treeline before a safe opportunity presented itself. With no wind or pressure pushing them out, Jordan made the smart call to back off and keep searching.

Later in the night, multiple singles appeared across different areas, but several promising stalks were disrupted by outside movement — including deer unintentionally pushing hogs into cover. That’s Hunting, and every experienced hunter knows those moments are part of the process.

The night truly came alive toward the end.

While scanning a new area, Jordan spotted a single hog, and the setup came together cleanly. The hog was taken, and as the group waited to see if it would move again, the field suddenly erupted with activity.

A sounder began pouring out of the treeline, running directly toward the downed hog. What followed was one of the most chaotic and memorable moments of the entire Hog Hunt. Groups of Hogs — wave after wave — crossed the field, creating multiple opportunities in rapid succession.

After the first wave moved through, another group emerged moments later, allowing the hunters to capitalize once again. In total, more than 30 hogs moved through the field during that final stretch of the night — an incredible sight even for seasoned hunters.

With multiple hogs recovered, photos taken, and the hogs processed, the group wrapped up Night 2 and headed in after an unforgettable finish.

Two nights.
Completely different experiences.
And a perfect example of why Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is never predictable.

Another successful Wild Hog Hunt in the books with Pig Problem and Guide Jordan.

Night 1: Wild Hog Hunting

Night 1 – Blog Post:

Night 1 of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem and Guide Jordan was a perfect example of how patience, persistence, and professionalism come together in real hunting situations.

The night began with several quiet fields, but eventually Jordan picked up a faint thermal signature near a thick brush line. After carefully watching it, the signature revealed itself as a hog slowly working its way toward the open field. The hunters were briefed, and the group moved in quietly, hugging the treeline before cutting into the field.

The first setup came together slowly and deliberately. As the group closed distance and waited for a clear shot opportunity, unexpected outside activity interrupted the stalk and pushed the hog back into cover. After handling the situation professionally and safely, Jordan made the call to move on — a tough decision after a long, patient stalk, but the right one.

Later in the night, persistence paid off.

While scanning another field, Jordan spotted a single hog mixed in with deer activity at the back of the field. The wind was favorable, and the group executed a textbook stalk — moving along the treeline, closing distance, and setting up carefully. After repositioning for a better angle, the hunters were able to connect on the hog.

The hog made it a short distance into the treeline before being located in a safe, accessible area. The recovery went smoothly, and the group wrapped up the moment with photos before processing the hog.

The Hog Hunt closed with one more field check before heading in for the night. Beyond the recovery, what truly stood out were the hunters themselves — positive, patient, and fully engaged throughout every stalk. Their attitude and teamwork made the night especially enjoyable and set the tone for Night 2.

A strong, hard-earned Night 1 in the books with Pig Problem and Guide Jordan — proof that persistence and the right mindset always matter in the field.

Thermal Hog Hunting In Georgia

Night 2 of this Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Clay was simple, clean, and exactly how a good stalk is supposed to feel.

After covering fields throughout the night, Clay and his hunters finally located a single hog moving alone. Lone pigs are some of the most unpredictable animals in the field — they travel differently, react differently, and don’t always hold still like larger sounders do.

Still, the team moved in quietly, using the wind and terrain to their advantage. A steady, patient approach put them right where they needed to be, and before long, the single was successfully taken — a solid ending to a Hog Hunt that required focus and good teamwork.

That’s the beauty of Hog Hunting in Georgia:
Some nights are fast-paced sounders, and some come down to a single animal and a perfectly executed stalk. Both are equally rewarding, and both highlight why Thermal Night Hunting is one of the most thrilling experiences outdoors.

Another successful night in the books with Guide Clay and Pig Problem — professional guides, real Thermal Gear, and Wild Hog Hunts that always bring something different.

Hog Hunting In Georgia

Some nights you cover miles before anything happens — and that’s exactly how Night 1 started for our South Georgia thermal hog hunt with Guide Clay.

We hit the first field at 8:44 PM and immediately spotted a familiar face: the same lone boar we stalked two nights earlier. Just like last time, he never stopped to feed, never slowed down, never looked back — he powered across the field like he had somewhere important to be. Before we could make a move, he was gone.

From there, we checked field after field, putting in the miles with nothing to show for it. Then we finally saw a pig… except it was casually strolling on the side of the road — the one place we can’t hunt. Figures, right? We drove past with a sour taste in our mouths and kept moving.

About an hour later, our new guide Jordan was checking fields for us and called with a lead on a place we call Honey Bun. It took about 45 minutes for him to get back to us, and by the time we arrived (around 3:20 AM), he thought the pigs had slipped back into the trees. He could barely make out shapes deep in the back, but wasn’t sure if they were pigs or shadows.

Still, we decided to stalk in — just hoping they were still out there. I was on this hunt too, getting footage, and the entire walk we couldn’t see or hear a thing. No movement, no heat signatures… nothing.

Then we made a sharp turn up onto higher ground — and there they were.
A sounder, right where they were supposed to be.

The hunters from upstate New York set up fast and handled business. Before long, five pigs were successfully rehomed(lol), and we loaded up the meat for the ride back to the Windsor so they could get a few hours of rest before Night 2.

Thermal hog hunting is unpredictable — some nights are quiet, some nights take patience, and some end with a surprise sounder waiting right over the hill.

Let’s see what Night 2 brings…

Hunting Wild Hogs With Thermal

Some nights test your patience, your wind reading, and your ability to adapt — and this was one of those nights. Guide Hank led this 1-Night Hog Hunt, and even with challenging conditions, the group still ended the night with solid success.

A Pig Right Out of the Gate

The Wild Hog Hunt began when the team spotted a hog from the road. As soon as they pulled into the field, the hog slipped into the treeline directly in front of them. That’s how fast things can change in South Georgia farmland — timing and movement matter.

A Sounder on the Opposite Side

Hank turned the group around and checked the opposite side of the field, where a full sounder was already out feeding. The wind wasn’t ideal, and the positioning made the approach tricky.

Even with those challenges, the team made the most of the opportunity and managed to connect with one of the hogs, though it moved off before they could reach it.

Real Hog Hunting isn’t always perfect. It teaches you how tough, aware, and resilient these animals are.

Returning to the First Spot

While searching the fields, the team noticed another hog back on the side where they originally started. They circled back, moved in carefully, and this time everything came together smoothly. The hog stayed in the open long enough for Hank to guide the group into a clean, controlled approach, ending with a successful recovery.

A Challenging but Successful Night

Every Thermal Hog Hunt is different. Nights like this remind you why Georgia Hog Hunting is such a unique experience.

When you book a Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia, you never know what the first field of the night will bring — and this group started their 2-night Hog Hunt with exactly the kind of excitement hunters hope for. Guide Hank led the way for Night 1, and within minutes of rolling into the fields, the action began.

Spotting 5 Hogs in the First Field

The night kicked off strong when the group located five Wild Hogs right away. Because of the wind direction and the slope of the ground, the hogs stayed tucked just out of sight until the team got within roughly 60 yards.

A slow, controlled approach was key. Hank positioned everyone carefully so the group could make their move together once the hogs were fully in view.

A Clean Approach + Solid First Push

When the team finally stepped into position, things came together fast. The hunters connected with three hogs, while the remaining two slipped into the treeline. Had they not been that close to cover, the outcome could’ve been even bigger — but that’s part of real Georgia Hog Hunting. The terrain always keeps you guessing.

Covering Ground Across Multiple Fields

After the initial excitement, Hank and the crew continued moving across several more fields. Deer were active throughout the night, and the group stayed on the lookout for more hogs as they worked through the property.

Even without additional hog encounters, the night closed out strong. Three hogs on Night 1 is a solid start to any 2 Night Hog Hunt with a group of five.

Why Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia Is So Successful

Pig Problem specializes in Thermal Hog Hunts that take place on active farmland, where hogs are always on the move and causing damage. That’s why nights like this — locating hogs quickly, adjusting for wind, reading the terrain — are part of what makes Thermal Hunting here so unique. Every field offers a new opportunity.

Wrapping Up Night 1 — On to Night 2

Night 1 was a successful kickoff to this group’s 2-night Thermal Boar Hunt with Hank. With three hogs recovered and plenty of wildlife movement, the stage is set for a big Night 2.

Stay tuned for the full recap.

Hunting Wild Boars

Some nights out Hunting in Georgia turn quiet — and then suddenly everything happens at once.

Guide Clayton led a father-and-son duo on a Thermal Hog Hunt that started off with great stories and easy conversation. They covered field after field, scanning through the night with their Thermal, but the pigs weren’t showing themselves early on.

Then, around 2 a.m., everything changed. The group spotted a Big Single Boar about 150 yards out in the open. They got set up, took their shots, and dropped the pig clean. Just two seconds later, a Coyote came prancing out and stopped right in front of them — the son didn’t hesitate and dropped it with one perfect shot.

Two animals, one incredible moment. Both the hog and coyote dropped less than 20 feet apart, ending the night with an unforgettable story and plenty of laughs.

At Pig Problem, we love guiding hunts like this — real Thermal Hog Hunting where you never know what the night will bring. We don’t sit in stands or hunt over bait. We move, stalk, and work for every opportunity. That’s what makes it exciting and why hunters travel from all over the country to experience Georgia Hog Hunting with us.

Bachelor Party Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia

When most people think of a bachelor party, they picture Las Vegas or the beach. But these young guys had a different idea: they wanted a real adventure and came down to Americus, Georgia for a Guided Hog Hunt with Pig Problem.

The night started off quiet, with no hogs in sight for hours. But just before sunrise, around 5 a.m., guide Clayton spotted a Sounder of Hogs across the field. The group made a careful stalk through cut corn — a tricky and noisy terrain that can make it tough to stay undetected. Despite the challenge, they managed to close the distance and set up for a shot.

The hard work paid off. The hunters were able to Protect Local Farmland from Destructive Wild Hogs while making Unforgettable Bachelor Party Hunting memories. Nights like this are exactly why so many groups are choosing Georgia Hog Hunting Trips over traditional bachelor party destinations.

Wild Hog Hunting

This Wild Hog Hunt started off slow, but once the deer started moving heavy, the action picked up. Not long after 1am, they spotted a small sounder of pigs. They made the stalk, got in range, and they got big sow. Guide Kaleb scanned for others that might’ve been hit, but nothing turned up.

Later in the night, they found another Wild Hog, but it kept moving and slipped onto another property before we could get on it.

Great group of guys to have out — good laughs and a solid Thermal Hog Hunt.

2 Nights Of Hog Hunting

Night 1:

The first night kicked off strong. Deer were everywhere, and the energy with this group of hunters was electric. While stalking a Single Hog near the treeline, three more stepped out just 50 yards in front of us—and the guys did exactly what they came here to do. All three Pigs went down. The night was filled with jokes, laughter, and stories we won’t forget.

Night 2:

The second night was quieter. We only spotted one Wild Hog, but it stayed on the move and never gave us a clean shot. Even so, there was no shortage of action—we had deer moving all around us, a bobcat came in close, and even a coyote almost gave us a chance before slipping into the trees.

At the end of the day, it wasn’t just about Hunting Hogs—it was about the memories. Two nights in the field with plenty of laughs, good company, and unforgettable moments.
