Battling the Elements & Bagging Hogs with Guide Hank

At Pig Problem, we know every Hog Hunt is different—some nights are nonstop action, and others test your patience. But no matter what, we adapt, strategize, and make the most of every opportunity. Guide Hank just wrapped up a 2 Night Hog Hunt, and it was a prime example of how Unpredictable Hog Hunting can be.

Night 1:

Deer Everywhere, Pigs Nowhere

The first night started with promise—plenty of deer moving through the fields, but the Pigs were nowhere to be found. As the night went on, the reason became clear. A massive storm was rolling in, bringing heavy wind, rain, and lightning. Right before it hit, the fields went dead silent—no movement, no signs of life. The animals knew what was coming, and so did we. Instead of pushing our luck and getting soaked, we called it early, knowing we’d have another shot the next night.

Night 2:

Success in the Wind

The second night brought its own challenge—strong winds—but we weren’t about to let that stop us. After covering a lot of ground with little to show for it, we finally spotted a couple of Wild Pigs. Using the tree line for cover and staying out of the moonlight, we made a short stalk into range. A couple of well-placed shots later, we had our Hogs for the night.

Even though we checked several more fields without luck, the Wild Hog Hunt was still a success. That’s Hog Hunting for you—some nights are easy, others make you work for it. But with persistence, smart tactics, and a little patience, the payoff always comes.

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.

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

Photo: He Is Not A One Shot Kinda Guy @PigProblem

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.

Wild Hogs On The Move

The Hunt That Almost Broke Clayton

Photo: Hunting Wild Hogs @PigProblem

Guiding Thermal Hog Hunts isn’t always easy. Some nights, everything lines up perfectly - Pigs are out in the open, stalks go smoothly, and Hunters rack up a Pile of Hogs with minimal effort. Other nights… well, they test your patience.

That’s exactly the kind of night Guide Clayton had on a recent Hog Hunt with three determined Hog Hunters. The Wild Pigs were out, but they weren’t exactly cooperating.

“Well well well, I failed four different stalks on pigs. Every time, they just walked back into the woods. It is the most frustrating thing to happen on a field stalk. I wanted to shave my eyebrows off and draw them back on to make me look angry all the time.”

If you’ve ever tried to creep up on a group of pigs in an open field, you know the feeling. One second, they’re feeding in the open, completely unaware. The next, they vanish into the treeline like ghosts.

But Clayton and his hunters weren’t about to give up. They kept pushing through the night, working field after field, waiting for their moment. Finally, at around 5 a.m., they spotted a Sounder. This time, there was no slipping away.

After 60+ rounds fired, the dust settled, and they had their hog.

Sometimes, Mother Nature throws one last curveball just to keep things interesting. As Clayton left the field, the sky opened up, hammering down rain so hard that he had to crawl home at 40 mph on Highway 19.

“I couldn’t see anything, but at least the hunting van is clean now.”

At the end of the day, no Wild Hog Hunt is ever the same, and that’s what makes it so damn fun. Whether it’s perfect stalks or a night full of frustration, every Hunting Trip is a story waiting to be told. And for these three hunters, they got to be part of a Hog Hunt that nearly drove their guide to altering his facial features in rage.

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

Photo: The Final Piggy @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.

Thermal Predator Hunts

From Hogs to Predators

Pig Problem

At Pig Problem, Inc., we know that every Hog Hunt is a different adventure. Sometimes, the Hogs cooperate, and sometimes they seem to disappear into thin air. But no matter what, we make the most of every night in the field.

Guide Hank recently led a 1 Night Thermal Hog Hunt, and while the group didn’t get a chance to put a Wild Hog on the ground, they still had a successful night - because they managed to take down a Coyote instead! When the hogs go into hiding, Predator control becomes the next best target, and we’re always ready to adapt.

The Hunt That Turned Into a Predator Control Mission

Wild Hog Hunting is unpredictable. After the recent snowstorm, the Pigs have been acting strange - maybe the sudden weather shift threw them off their routine. One night they’re everywhere, and the next, they’re ghosts. That’s the challenge of Hunting Wild Hogs: you never know what the night will bring.

But that’s why we love it. Unlike sitting in a stand over a bait pile, our Guided Hunts are all about strategy, movement, and real-time decision-making. With Thermal Optics in hand, we cover ground, Scanning Fields and wood lines for Heat Signatures. On this Thermal Hunt, instead of spotting a Sounder of Hogs, the team locked onto the glowing shape of a Coyote creeping through the night.

Coyotes are another major problem for farmers and landowners, preying on livestock, deer fawns, and even pets. Taking one out is always a win in our book. So while the night didn’t end with a Hog Down, it was still a success.

The Thrill of the Spot-and-Stalk Thermal Hunt

What makes our Wild Hog Hunts so exciting is the way we do them. We don’t just sit in a stand and wait - we get out there and Hunt. Spot-and-stalk Thermal Hunting is an adrenaline rush from start to finish. Every Hunting Trip is different, every encounter is unique, and every Hunter leaves with a great story.

Hogs are tough to hunt, and sometimes, they just don’t show up. But that’s what makes it all the more rewarding when everything lines up, and we move in on a Sounder. That’s the kind of Guided Hog Hunt we’re looking forward to for these guys when they come back - we’re determined to put them on some Pigs!

A Wild Hog Hunting Adventure:

Three Nights Under the Stars with Capt. Clayton

As the temperatures dipped below freezing in South Georgia, a group of four adventurous individuals joined us for an exhilarating 3 Night Wild Hog Hunting experience. Led by our skilled Guide Capt. Clayton, the team came ready to embrace the thrill and challenges that awaited them in the wild.

Night 1: The Hunt Begins

The group, excited for their long-awaited Hunting Adventure—originally planned for October but rescheduled—wasted no time getting into the action. Right off the bat, they showcased their skills and camaraderie, managing to take down 3 Hogs on their first night! It was an exhilarating kickoff that not only set the tone for the rest of the Hog Hunting Trip but also rekindled the spirit of adventure among friends who were thrilled to immerse themselves in the Wild Hog Hunt.

Night 2: The Early Bird Doesn’t Always Get the Worm

“Oh hi there. My name is Clay, and I only see pigs at 4 a.m.” Megan told Clay that he would see Wild Pigs at 2:30. So Guide Clay was upset that she lied to him.

Despite one of the Hunters—who chose to “hold down the fort” in the van—being less inclined to join us on the stalk that night. The Hog Hunters after the Stalk to Wild Hogs set up there tripods and turned on the Thermal. 3,2, Bang! Another one bites the dust. Thermal Hunting is the best.

Night 3: The Search Goes On

Our final night of the Hunting Adventure took us on a quest through the South Georgia Farm Fields, scanning for Hogs as the temperature plunged to what felt like an Arctic chill. The crew remained optimistic, driving around in search of the Elusive Wild Hogs that seem to know how to evade our best efforts. After a long night, we couldn’t find any Pigs, but this didn’t seem to dampen spirits—the thrill of the chase and the joy of the experience outweighed the lack of success in the Hog Hunt.

As we wrapped up the Hunting Trip, it was evident that this group had created lasting Hunting Memories together over these few days of Guided Hog Hunting. Although we didn’t meet all of our goals, the camaraderie shared and experiences gained made it an Unforgettable Hunting outing.

Unforgettable Moments at Pig Problem:

A 2-Night Hog Hunt Experience

Recently at Pig Problem, the excitement was palpable as Guide Hank and Guide Clayton welcomed back a spirited group of Amish Hunters for a thrilling 2 Night Hog Hunt. This dynamic duo brought their unique styles together, crafting an incredible experience filled with laughter, camaraderie, and some Unforgettable Hunting moments.

Night 1:

Guide Clayton's Encounter

On the first night, Guide Capt. Clayton enjoyed the warm company of the Amish Hunting Group, who returned partly due to Clay’s undeniable charm! With everyone eager to hit the fields, they set out on a quest for Wild Hogs. The evening started off with a Solo Hog—a single Dad Boar Hog with his little ones in tow. Despite the team’s best efforts, they could only manage to drop The Father Hog after what seemed like an eternity—eight rounds later, they finally brought him down.

While the first part of the night presented its challenges, fortunes turned with the successful takedown of a Coyote lurking around 200 yards away, ending the evening on a high note.

Night 1:

Guide Hank's Adventure

Meanwhile, Guide Hank embarked on his segment of the Thermal Hog Hunt. After checking a few fields, he spotted a Sounder of Hogs and quickly rallied his group for a strategic stalk. However, a surprise distraction ensued when some leftover New Year’s fireworks sparked excitement in the air, startling the Pigs and sending them into hiding.

Not to be outdone, Guide Hank recalibrated his approach, returning to the same field where he had initially spotted the Sounder. Patience paid off when he spotted two Wild Pigs at the back. With teamwork and precision, they managed to drop both Hogs—a moment of pure triumph echoing through the group.

Night 2:

A Unified Group Experience

For the second night, Guides Hank and Clayton made the brilliant decision to merge their groups, allowing everyone to Hog Hunt together as one cohesive family unit. No matter what anyone says about the Amish or the Mennonites, Guide Peanut Protector Capt Clayton has a special admiration for these resilient individuals.

His heartfelt reflections on the Amish reveal a deeper connection. These folks exude warmth, laughter, and a zest for life that is truly infectious. They embody the philosophy that relationships with those around us hold more value than material possessions. Their unwavering positivity and sense of humor provided a backdrop of joy that made every moment special.

“I may not say it or show it, but I would die and kill for any of you guys without hesitation. Best job I ever had,” said Clayton, encapsulating the camaraderie shared among the group.

Wild Hog Hunting

A Long Night Leads to Success

Photo: The Three Lil Piggies @PigProblem

Sometimes, patience and perseverance pay off in a big way, and that’s exactly what happened on a recent Hog Hunt led by our very own Guide Hank.

Hank took a group of three Hunters on a thrilling 1 Night Hog Hunt. The night started off quiet—really quiet. For hours, the team scoured the fields with no sign of Wild Hogs. But in true Hunting fashion, the tide turned in the early hours of the morning.

At 2:40 a.m., the moment they’d been waiting for finally arrived—a Sounder of Hogs appeared in the field. The adrenaline kicked in as Hank helped the group set up quickly and efficiently. Once in position, they opened fire, putting multiple rounds into several Pigs. The teamwork and quick action paid off, as they managed to bring down three Hogs before calling it a night.

It was a long Wild Hog Hunt, but the reward made it all worthwhile. We hope this group had as much fun as we did guiding them through the South Georgia fields, and we can’t wait to see them back for more Thermal Hunting Adventures!

The Comet Tail Hog Hunt

Weekend Recap:

This past weekend at Pig Problem, we had the pleasure of hosting an exhilarating hog hunt in Americus, Georgia, guided by none other than the owner, Max. A.C. and his crew of six adventurous guys made the most of their guys’ trip with an unforgettable One-Night Hog Hunt that combined Thrilling Hunting experiences with fun and laughter.

A Night to Remember

With the night sky casting its serene glow over the fields, the group was excited to embark on their Thermal Hog Hunt. Under the expert guidance of Max, these six hunters quickly got into the groove, working as a team to track and take down wild hogs in the area. Their efforts paid off, with the group successfully taking down three Wild Hogs—a commendable achievement that had everyone excited.

The fun didn’t stop there! This weekend also presented a rare celestial wonder, as the group was treated to the sight of a Comet Tail that hasn’t been visible in over 80,000 years. Max and the crew snapped some amazing photos of this breathtaking phenomenon, adding an extra layer of excitement to their already action-packed night.

Harvest Season in South Georgia

This time of year marks the Harvest Season for Farmers in South Georgia, and the landscape reflects the hard work of the Agricultural Community. Farmers are currently Flipping Peanuts over to dry out before harvesting, creating an inviting feast for the Wild Hogs in the area. As the local Hog Population sees this as a prime opportunity, it adds another layer of urgency to our missions at Pig Problem Inc.

Our responsibility is clear: help Farmers mitigate the risk of Hogs Destroying Their Crops during this crucial season. With efforts like those of A.C. and his gang, we’re able to make a significant impact on protecting these harvests.

Conclusion: Come Back for More!

We hope A.C. and his friends had a blast on their Thermal Hog Hunting Trip! Their enthusiastic spirit and teamwork led to an Unforgettable Hunting Experience, one that combines the thrill of the Hunt with the beauty of nature and the wonders of the universe.

At Pig Problem, we are always ready to welcome back Hunters who seek adventure and a chance to protect our local farmlands. The Wild Hogs will continue to pose challenges during this Peanut Harvest Season, and there's always room for more friends to join us in the fight against them. Here’s to more exciting Hunting Trips in the future—until next time, happy hunting!
