Two Nights, Two Different Hunts

A Wild Chase with Pig Problem

No two nights of Hog Hunting are ever the same, and this Hunting Trip was proof of that. Guide Hank led a 2-Night Hog Hunt that started as a grind but ended with a Pile of Pigs and plenty of fresh pork to take home.

Night One:

The Long Chase and a Foggy Finish

The Pigs were coming out late, but that didn’t mean we were going to give up on them. After a long 1,000-yard walk, we set up on a Sounder of 20 Pigs, got some shots off, and dropped two.

The rest of the night turned into a wild chase—driving from field to field like madmen, scanning through Thermal Equipment, and covering as much ground as possible to find more Hogs. By the time we were walking back to the van, the sun was up, and a thick morning fog had settled over the field, making for a unique and eerie photo to mark the end of the Wild Hog Hunt.

Night Two:

A Complete Turnaround

What a difference a night makes. After spending most of the first night waiting and chasing, the second night was all action. The first field we hit was full of Wild Pigs, and the Hunters wasted no time. They took down 6 Hogs in a fast-paced stalk, making every shot count.

The next couple of hours were all about putting in the work—stalking, shooting, dragging, and butchering. Since the group needed to head home, we wrapped things up with a great haul of meat and got them on the road at a decent time.

The Reality of Hog Hunting:

A Night with Capt Max

Photo: Coyote Down @PigProblem

At Pig Problem Inc, every Thermal Hunt is different—sometimes it’s fast action, sometimes it’s a grind, and sometimes, it’s a mix of both. On this 1 Night Thermal Hunt, Guide Capt Max and his Hunters got a little bit of everything: a first-time predator kill, close encounters with Wild Hogs, and a reminder that all of Hunting is never a guarantee.

The night started strong when Harry dropped his First Coyote. It was a textbook setup—Calling a Coyote in to about 50-60 yards before sealing the deal. A great way to kick things off.

Next up: Wild Pigs. They got on a Sounder early, but despite solid effort, nothing hit the ground. Then came two more opportunities—one pair and one single. But when the wind shifted, the pair caught their scent and vanished. The single? Pulled a Houdini and disappeared into the night.

“Hunting is 100% Present Opportunity,” Capt Max said. “Skill, luck, time all have some play. But mainly, going outside is the biggest part.” That’s the truth of it—showing up, putting in the time, and being ready when the moment comes.

And speaking of putting in the time—Max has spent the past four nights sleeping in the van, getting home at 8-9 a.m. This isn’t just a job; it’s a lifestyle. “Everyone wants to be a Hog Hunter for the glory,” he joked. But the reality? It’s long nights, hard-earned kills, and doing whatever it takes to Solve The Pig Problem.

Hunting Before The Storm

Two Nights of Thermal Hog Hunting with Guide Clayton

Guide Clayton recently led a 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Hunters Ron and Doug, and the experience was nothing short of unforgettable.

Night 1:

A Strong Start

The first night got off to a promising start. As soon as the group pulled onto the very first field, a Lone Hog presented itself. Ron and Doug wasted no time, making a clean shot and dropping the Wild Pig right where it stood. The rest of the night, however, was quiet. Despite the stillness of the fields, the energy remained high. The Hog Hunters spent the hours swapping stories, sharing laughs, and enjoying the kind of camaraderie that makes nights in the field truly memorable.

Night 2:

Hunting Through the Storm

The second night brought more action—and a battle with the weather. Thunder and lightning loomed in the distance, but that didn’t slow the Wild Hog Hunt. Three separate Hunting Stalks put the hunters in position, and on one approach, a Hog was still standing when Clayton and Zev moved in. Without hesitation, they lined up side by side and finished the job with precision shots.

Even as the storm rolled in, the night was filled with music, stories, and nonstop conversation. Ron and Doug proved to be not only Skilled Hunters but also great company, making for an Unforgettable Hunt. Nights like these are what keep guides coming back year after year—Chasing Hogs under the cover of darkness, making memories with good people, and living for the next Hog Hunt.

Never Give Up:

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

Photo: Boar Down @PigProblem

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

Photo: HUGE HOG @PigProblem

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.

Photo: JUST KIDDING… just a baby @PigProblem

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.

Experience the Best in Thermal Hog Hunting with Pig Problem

At Pig Problem, we specialize in Guided Thermal Hog Hunts in Americus, Georgia, offering Hunters an Unforgettable Hunting Experience while helping local farmers protect their land. Wild Hogs are one of the most destructive invasive species in the country, tearing up farm fields, ruining crops, and causing millions of dollars in damage. Our Wild Hog Hunts give you the chance to put your skills to the test while making a real difference.

The Challenge of Hunting Wild Hogs

HogHogs are smart, fast, and unpredictable, making them a tough animal to hunt. They are mostly nocturnal, moving and feeding under the cover of darkness. That’s where Thermal Equipment come into play—our High-End Thermal allow Hog Hunters to detect Heat Signatures, giving them an edge in Spotting Hogs that would otherwise be invisible in the night.

One of the biggest challenges of Hog Hunting is dealing with a Sounder—a Group of Pigs traveling together. When shots ring out, the entire group scatters, turning a well-placed first shot into a chaotic, fast-moving target challenge. These Wild Pigs can hit full sprint in seconds, making follow-up shots a true test of skill. It’s an adrenaline rush like no other.

Just ask Jeff, a longtime customer who knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s one of the best shots we’ve ever had, taking down 10 pigs in a single night by himself. That’s the kind of excitement and skill that makes Thermal Hog Hunting so addictive.

Helping Local Farmers, One Hunt at a Time

At Pig Problem Inc, we’re not just about the Thrill of the Hunt—we’re here to help farmers reclaim their land. Wild Hogs destroy crops, root up pastures, and even damage irrigation systems. By targeting these invasive pests, we help reduce the destruction they cause and keep local farms in business. Every Guided Hog Hunt is another step toward controlling the growing hog population.

Come See for Yourself

Whether you’re an Experienced Hunter or trying Thermal Hunting for the first time, Pig Problem delivers an unmatched Hunting Experience. Our Hunting Guides are experts at stopping for nothing to find Wild Hogs, setting up successful shots, and making sure you have a night to remember.

A Tactical Hog Hunt with Guide Hank

At Pig Problem, every Hog Hunt presents new challenges, and our latest 2 Night Hunting Trip was no exception. Guide Hank led a group of five Hunters into the fields, ready for action. While the first night started off slow, patience and strategy paid off in the end.

Photo: Hog Down @PigProblem

One of the biggest hurdles of the night came when we found ourselves surrounded—not by Hogs, but by a large group of deer. Maneuvering through them without spooking the Wild Hog we were after took some careful planning, but our Hog Hunters pulled it off like pros. The reward? A well-earned kill and a great shot placement on a Solid Pig.

Later in the night, around 2 a.m., another target appeared—a Coyote. One of our hunters took the shot, but the tricky Predator managed to escape, leaving no photo evidence behind. Still, the night was a success, and the team is fired up for round two.

Night 2:

Swirling Winds and Quick Shots

Hank’s second Night of Hunting proved to be another success, with two Pigs Down despite challenging wind conditions.

The night started with a visit to the second field, where shifting winds threatened to give us away. As we scanned the area, a Wild Hog caught our scent and began to move off. With quick reaction time, we got a shot off just as it started to run, dropping it before it could escape.

Later in the night, we checked one of the last fields on our route and spotted another Pig. Unfortunately, this one winded us and disappeared into the darkness. Not willing to leave empty-handed, we gave the field another look and found a Small Single Hog lingering behind. This time, the wind worked in our favor, allowing us to take the shot and put it down cleanly.

Despite tricky conditions, the night ended on a high note with two Wild Pigs on the ground—another productive Wild Hog Hunt with Hank leading the way.

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

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.

At Pig Problem, we know bigger groups mean bigger opportunities. That’s why we can take up to 15-20 Hunters per night, splitting into smaller groups with our Expert Hunting Guides to maximize the action. On this Guided Hog Hunt, Guides Capt Max and Hank each took five Hunters for a 2 Night Thermal Hog Hunt.

Night One:

Tough Hunting, Strong Finish

The first night started with promise as Hank’s group dropped a hog in the first field. But from there, the Pigs weren’t giving up their positions easily. The group searched all night, covering ground without another solid opportunity—until the very last run of the night. That’s when Max called Hank’s group in on a final stalk, leading to another Hog Down. In total, the combined groups took 3 Hogs and a Coyote for the night.

Night Two:

Beavers, Bunnies, and a Sounder

Photo: Head Shot @PigProblem

The second night had its fair share of action—just not all from Wild Pigs. Max got a couple of beavers down, and Hank’s crew even got a shot at a rabbit. But when it came time for Hogs, both groups worked together on a split stalk, bringing down one last Piggy to wrap up the Thermal Hunt.

The Hunt

With patience and strategy, they spotted a Single Boar and moved in carefully. Using the tree canopy as a natural backdrop, they executed a mild stalk, closing the distance for the perfect shot. When the moment was right, they took the Wild Boar down - an exciting and rewarding experience for the young hunter.

A Father-Son Hunt to Remember:

The Highs and Lows of Thermal Hog Hunting

Hog Hunting is unpredictable. That’s what makes it a challenge - and what makes it so rewarding. Guide Clayton recently took a father and son out for a two-night Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem, and let’s just say, it was a rollercoaster from start to finish.

Night One:

The Waiting Game

The first night? Brutal. Not a single Pig in sight. They covered miles of farmland, scanning fields and checking hot spots, but the hogs weren’t moving. This sudden weather shift - from 70-degree days to freezing nights - had the Pigs acting strange. It was a tough pill to swallow, but that’s part of the Hog Hunt. If it were easy, it wouldn’t be Hunting.

Night Two:

A Test of Patience and Grit

With nothing to show for their first night, the group pushed even harder on night two. Hour after hour, field after field - still nothing. The frustration was real, but so was the determination.

By 5 AM, after nearly 22 hours of Wild Hog Hunting over two nights, they hit their last field. And finally — Wild Pigs!

The moment they had been grinding for finally arrived. The father and son lined up their shots, and when the time was right, they dropped a Massive Hog. After a long, Grueling Hunt, they got their reward.

The Name of the Game

Clayton, who had been running on fumes, could finally sleep like a baby. That’s the reality of Pig Hunting - sometimes it’s fast and furious, other times it’s a battle of endurance. The Wild Hogs don’t make it easy, especially when the weather throws them off. But that’s why we do it.

At Pig Problem Inc, we don’t just chase hogs - we hunt them. And when it all comes together, there’s nothing like it.
