This past week, Guide Capt Max and our newest team member, Caleb, headed out for a Two-Night Hog Hunt with a great Group of Hunters. Caleb is currently training under Max’s wing, and this Hunting Trip was a perfect opportunity to gain some solid experience in the field. Here’s how it went down.

Night 1:

Weather Delays, But Worth the Wait

The first night started off slow. The usual signs of activity just weren’t there early on, and before long, the skies opened up with rain and thunder rolling through the area. It looked like we might have to pack it in, but after a bit of patience, the storm passed—and so did our luck.

Not long after the skies cleared, movement picked up. A Single Hog made its way into the Farm Field, and our Hunters were ready. Let’s just say they made the most of the opportunity. That one moment turned the whole night around.

Night 2:

Slow Action, Great Company

Night two was quieter. Wild Hog movement was minimal with only a few coyotes and the occasional deer sighting. Sometimes the Pigs just don’t want to play the game, but that’s part of what makes each Hog Hunt unique.

What the night lacked in action, it made up for in laughs and good company. These Hog Hunters were a great group—stories were shared, jokes were flying, and memories were made. That’s what it’s all about.

Caleb’s doing an awesome job getting up to speed under Max’s guidance, and we’re excited for the future as he becomes part of the regular guide team.

Until next time—stay ready, stay sharp, and we’ll see you in the fields for Thermal Hog Hunting.

Two Nights of Chaos, Calm, and Connection

A Memorable Hunt with Capt. Clayton

Not every Hog Hunt is about filling the cooler. For some folks, it’s about the full experience—the thrill of the stalk, the stillness of the night, the laughter, the challenges, and the stories that come out of it all. That’s exactly what this 2-Night Hog Hunt with Peanut Protector Capt. Clayton was about.

Night One:

Quiet Fields and Missed Chances

The first night was all about patience and persistence. We moved through the darkness with high hopes, but despite three stalks and plenty of effort, the Pigs managed to stay just out of reach. No opportunities, no close encounters—just quiet fields, long walks, and a chance to soak in the calm side of the Wild Hog Hunt.

While the action was slow, the energy of the group never faded. These hunters were out there for more than just results—they were soaking in every moment, taking in the sights, the sounds, and the full experience of Hunting Wild Hogs at Night.

Night Two:

A Little Chaos and a Lot of Fun

The second night brought a shift in momentum. We had two exciting stalks that brought us in close, and the team was ready. The first opportunity came out of nowhere—sparked by a moment of confusion over changed names in the OnX app—and just like that, the night turned around.

It was a night full of action, laughs, and the kind of adrenaline that keeps you coming back for more. As Capt. Clayton put it, “I love chaos just as much as I love calmness.” That balance—the extreme highs and lows—is what makes Hunting so real and rewarding.

It’s About More Than Just the Hunt

This Hunting Trip was a reminder that success in the field isn’t measured by numbers alone. It’s about the people, the moments, and the memories made along the way. And with this group, every mile walked and every minute spent under the stars was worth it.

Persistence Pays Off:

A Two-Night Hog Hunt with Capt. Clayton


Some Hog Hunts are fast-paced, and some require patience—but every Wild Hog Hunt is an adventure. Peanut Protector Guide Capt. Clayton recently led a determined group on a 2 Night Hog Hunt, pushing through long hours and late nights to make it happen.


Night 1:

The Waiting Game

The first night was all about persistence. Hours passed without a single sighting, and just when it seemed like the Hogs had disappeared for the night, movement finally caught our attention at 4:30 a.m. A long stalk followed, testing both endurance and strategy, but in the end, the effort paid off. From a distance of around 150-200 yards, the team made it count, wrapping up the night with a well-earned success.



Night 2:

A Quick Start, Then the Quiet

The second night started off promising, with a Wild Hog spotted early at 9 p.m. The excitement was high, but after that, the night took a quiet turn. Despite covering plenty of ground, no more Pigs showed up, making for a long trek back home around sunrise.



These two nights were a testament to the Unpredictable Nature of Hog Hunting—some nights are packed with action, while others test patience and determination. But no matter what, the experience, the challenge, and the adventure always make it worth it.

Guide Capt Max led the way on the first night, covering plenty of ground in search of Wild Hogs. The conditions were just right, and the night started off strong with a couple of Coyotes spotted and a Solid Boar added to the tally. Mario and Harry know the drill, making for an efficient and enjoyable Hog Hunt.



Night 2 with Zev

Zev took over on the second night, and the streak continued with two more Hogs found. He had nothing but good things to say about Mario and Harry, calling them “cool dudes” who made the experience a great one. The night had an unexpected twist, though—on the way back, a flat tire slowed things down, and a loose brake caliper made for a bit more work than planned. But no worries, just another Hunting Adventure on the road!



These two nights were a great reminder of why we do what we do. The right company, solid Hunting Guides, and the thrill of Thermal Hunting always make for a memorable experience. Looking forward to seeing Mario and Harry back out Wild Hog Hunting again soon!

Late-Night Success:

A Hunt with Guide Clayton

At Pig Problem, we’re no strangers to long nights in the field, but some Hog Hunts test patience more than others. Guide Clayton recently led a group on a 1 Night Thermal Hog Hunt, and while the Pigs didn’t make it easy, persistence paid off in a big way.


A Slow Start, A Big Finish


Clayton and his Hunters covered miles of farmland under the cover of darkness, Scanning Fields and tree lines for any sign of Wild Hogs. But despite hours of effort, the night remained frustratingly quiet. Not a Single Pig showed up—until 5 in the morning.


But when the Wild Pigs finally did appear, they came in numbers. A Sounder of 30+ Hogs spread out across the field, feeding and moving cautiously. With daylight fast approaching, the Hog Hunters had only one chance at getting the job done.


Long Shots and Big Drops


The setup wasn’t perfect—tough terrain and less-than-ideal angles forced the group to take longer shots than usual. But with steady hands and the right gear, they made their moment count, Dropping 2 Hogs before the rest of the Sounder scattered.


The Grind Pays Off


Some nights, the Feral Hogs come easy. Other nights, they keep you waiting until the last possible moment. But that’s part of what makes Thermal Hog Hunting such a thrill—you never know what the night will bring.


Big thanks to Clayton and his hunters for sticking it out and making the most of the opportunity. At Pig Problem Inc, we Hunt hard, no matter how long it takes. Want to test your skills on a Night Hunt of your own? Book your Wild Hog Hunt today!

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, 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 take downs, and doing whatever it takes to Solve The Pig Problem.

Late-Night Action:

A One-Night Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton


At Pig Problem, we see all kinds of Hog Hunts—some quick and easy, others that turn into an all-night pursuit. On a recent 1 Night Thermal Hog Hunt, Guide Clayton led a group of Hunters who were eager, ready, and, most importantly, willing to listen. That combination usually leads to success, and this Wild Hog Hunt was no exception.



The Night of Hunting started with two go-arounds. The first encounter was a Single Hog, a good warm-up for the group to get dialed in with their pew pews and Thermal. They executed perfectly, making a clean shot and getting their first Hog Down.




But the real excitement came later. At around 2 a.m., Clayton spotted a Sounder of Pigs moving through the fields. This was the moment the group had been waiting for. With precision and patience, they followed Clayton’s guidance, setting up for a well-coordinated shot. When the green light was given, chaos erupted as Multiple Hogs Dropped in the field.




Clayton had nothing but good things to say about this group. “Guys were super easy and listened to everything I said,” he noted. That attention to detail paid off, as they walked away with a successful night of Hog Control and an Unforgettable Hunting Experience.




Another night, another Pig Problem Solved. If you’re ready for a High-Energy Hunt/ Adrenaline-Pumping Hog Hunt, Pig Problem Inc is the place to be. Book your Hunt now and experience the thrill for yourself!

Three Nights of Hog Hunting with Guide Clayton


Hog Hunting is never predictable, and no nights in the field are ever the same. Recently, Guide Clayton led a 3-Night Hog Hunt that proved just how unpredictable—and exciting—Chasing Wild Hogs can be.


Night 1:

A Momma and Her Piglets

The first night started off with some action. A Lone Sow and her litter of Piglets made the mistake of stepping into the Hunters’ sights. The team quickly got the mother, but the Piglets, small and fast, scattered into the brush. Shots were fired, but those little ones proved tough. The night was far from uneventful.



Night 2:

Dropping a Sounder

The second night delivered exactly what every Hog Hunter hopes for—a Sounder moving through the fields. The hunters wasted no time and managed to get 3 Wild Pigs, adding to the success of the Hunting Trip. CJ and Noah, feeling the adrenaline, decided to get up close for a more personal picture with their harvest. Excitement was high, and the night was a solid win for the team.



Night 3:

The Silent Fields



Thermal Hog Hunting isn’t always action-packed, and the third night was a reminder of that. Despite covering miles of ground, checking every hot spot, and staying out as long as possible, not a single Hog showed itself. Some nights, the Pigs just don’t cooperate, and this was one of those times. But as every Seasoned Hunter knows, persistence is key—because the next night could bring a Field Full of Hogs.



Three nights, three very different experiences, and another Unforgettable Hunt in the books. Whether the pigs are running or hiding, the thrill of the chase never gets old.

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 moment happen and getting the Wild Pig. 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.



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.
