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.
