1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt Recap With Guide Hank | Pig Problem

Some nights in South Georgia remind you just how smart and unpredictable Wild Hogs can be — and this 1-Night Hog Hunt with Guide Hank was one of those nights. Even without pigs recovered, it was still a fun, high-energy hunt full of movement, learning moments, and close calls.

A Stalk That Changed in Seconds

Around 1 AM, Hank and the group began a careful stalk on a sounder feeding near the edge of the field. Everything looked perfect — wind checked, approach planned, hunters set.

But just as they settled into position, the hogs shifted direction and moved across the road onto a neighboring property we don’t have access to. It all happened right in front of everyone, and the whole group watched the entire thing play out in real time.

Sometimes timing is everything, and this was one of those moments where the hogs won the chess match.

3 AM Pigs With Tough Wind

Later in the night, around 3 AM, Hank located another group. The drone pilot was up helping scan the fields, and they worked together to get everyone into a good position.

The problem?
The wind was blowing straight toward the hogs.

They still managed to set up quietly and get a clear line on the group, but the wind and angle worked against them. The hogs slipped over the crest of a hill, dropped out of sight, and disappeared into the cress of the hill before the team could make a clean approach.

Wild hogs don’t need much of an advantage — and the wind gave it to them.

Lots of Action, Lots of Movement

Even without a recovery, it was a night Thermal Hog Hunting full of:

• Multiple hog sightings

• A full stalk with the entire group watching it unfold

• Hogs changing direction instantly

• Thermal drone support helping scan multiple fields

• Challenges from wind, terrain, and timing

Real Georgia Hog Hunting isn’t scripted, and this night was a perfect example of how unpredictable these animals are.

A Fun Night With the Group

Hank said it best:
“Good fun — just no pigs down tonight.”

Some nights are about the chase, the movement, the stalks, the close calls, and the teamwork. This group stayed positive, got through the tough moments, and made the best out of every opportunity.

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.

Thermal Hunting With The Northern Lights

It’s not every day you see the Northern Lights in South Georgia, but tonight was one of those unforgettable nights. The sky glowed with colors that most of us never get to witness down here — a rare sight that made the long night even more special.

Guide Clay and his hunters covered plenty of ground before finding a small group of pigs in the second field. They were spread out across the area, which meant taking a careful, steady approach to each one individually — the kind of patience and focus that Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is known for.

After that, the fields went quiet, but nobody minded. The combination of the northern lights, the cool air, and the peaceful stillness of the Georgia night made it one of those Wild Hog Hunts you just don’t forget.

Every Hog Hunt with Pig Problem is different — some are fast-paced and full of action, and others slow down and remind us why we love being out there. It’s not just about the pursuit; it’s about the experience, the atmosphere, and the chance to see the world in a way few people ever do.

Another memorable night in the books with Guide Clay and Pig Problem, under one of the prettiest skies South Georgia has ever seen.

Thermals, Teamwork, and 14 Pigs in One Night

When everything clicks — teamwork, timing, and technology — Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia turns into something unforgettable.

Guide Clay kicked off a wild night that started with a massive sounder of about 20 pigs (plus plenty of little ones). I was there for this one, we had Daniel flying the drone and calling Clay over once we spotted the group out in the field. We geared up, planned our approach, and began a long, careful stalk.

Once we were in range, the thermal lit up the field. Within seconds, we had success with two pigs down and plenty of excitement to kick off the night. As we were taking photos, the Thermal Drone picked up more movement just 20 yards away, so we reset quickly and moved again. That second stalk led to ten more pigs recovered, making it an incredible double run — fast-paced, smooth teamwork, and some amazing footage to come.

After I left, Clay and the hunters continued the night with another stalk, bringing the total to 14 pigs spotted and 12 recovered before sunrise. A perfect example of how much ground and action a good thermal setup can cover in just one night.

Thermal Hog Hunting is the real deal — high-tech, high-energy, and totally unpredictable. Between the heat signatures, drones, and quick field decisions, no two Hog Hunts are ever the same.

That’s what makes Pig Problem special — we combine real field knowledge, advanced thermal gear, and guides who know how to adapt fast. Nights like this show why Georgia Hog Hunting is unlike anywhere else in the country.

Guide Hank led a one-night Thermal Hog Hunt that reminded everyone how quickly things can change in the field.

The night had been quiet until just around midnight, when the team was driving through a wooded stretch and suddenly spotted a Sounder of Pigs about 200 yards out. They stopped fast, geared up, and got ready to make a move.

The wind was shifting along the treeline — never a good sign — and Hank knew that hesitation could send the pigs running. So, in a quick and decisive moment, he adjusted the team’s position and turned a surprise encounter into a successful outcome.

That’s what Hog Hunting in Georgia is all about — patience, timing, and adapting to whatever the night throws your way.

At Pig Problem, we don’t sit and wait. We move, stalk, and strategize to give our hunters the most exciting and ethical Thermal Hog Hunting experience in Georgia. Every night brings something new — new challenges, new lessons, and new memories made under the stars.

Another great night in the books with Guide Hank and his hunters. 🌙

Wild Boar Hunting In Georgia

Another exciting night of Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia with Pig Problem and Guide Hank (a.k.a. Luke)!

The night started like many of our Wild Hog Hunts do — cruising the backroads and scanning fields for heat signatures. After checking a few spots with nothing moving, the team finally pulled into a field and saw pigs scrambling at the far end. The wind was swirling, so the stalk had to be slow and careful.

They crept closer, staying just downwind until they got in range. Once the thermals lit up, the hunters got set and the chance happened — four hogs re-homed, with one more that managed to make it into the woods.

That’s the kind of night that keeps us hooked on Hog Hunting — every stalk is different, every chance counts, and every Boar Hunt tells a new story.

At Pig Problem, we specialize in Guided Night Hunts across South Georgia, chasing wild hogs that tear up farmland and crop fields. We don’t bait or sit in stands — we hunt, stalk, and go, giving you a true, hands-on Hunting Experience.

Whether you’re chasing your first pig or adding to your tally, Pig Problem delivers the thrill of Thermal Boar Hunting in Georgia — real guides, real pigs, and real fun.

Night two of this Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton brought a mix of challenge, excitement, and a good dose of laughter to finish things off.

The night started slow, with just a single pig spotted around 1 a.m. The crew tried to stalk in close, but the wind shifted and the pig bolted back into the trees — a reminder that in Hog Hunting, every detail matters.

A few hours later, around 3 a.m., the luck turned. The team came across a group of six pigs feeding in the field. The hunters quickly got into position and dropped two in the open field, while a few others were hit but managed to make it back into the trees before recovery. Still, a solid success and an exciting end to the night.

And to top it all off, the photo just above the van had everyone laughing — Clayton said it looks like Gandalf and Bilbo Baggins side by side, with the dad towering over his son.

That’s what makes Hog Hunting in Georgia so great — you never know what’s going to happen. Some nights test your patience, others surprise you with fast action, but every Wild Hog Hunt with Pig Problem brings new memories, new stories, and plenty of laughs along the way.

Every Hog Hunt tells a story, and this one with Guide Hank was all about good company, patience, and perfect timing.

The night started like most South Georgia Hog Hunts — checking field after field under the cover of darkness with nothing to show for it early on. But around 2 a.m., things changed. That’s earlier than Hank’s recent average for pig sightings, and this time, it paid off.

The group spotted a Lone Boar wandering through a patch of corn, and the stalk was on. Moving quietly through the stalks, they closed the distance and made it happen — a clean, successful shot and a solid Boar on the ground. Two hunters, one pig, and plenty of good laughs to end the night.

This crew also wanted to keep the memory alive with a European mount boar’s skull — a great way to showcase the trophy and remember the Boar Hunt forever. At Pig Problem, we offer professional European mounts with nationwide shipping, so no matter where you’re from, your mount can be delivered straight to your door safely and securely.

From start to finish, this was another great night of Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia. Whether you’re chasing a single boar or a sounder of ten, Pig Problem offers the full experience — Guided Night Hunts, thermal, and memories that last a lifetime.

Night two of this two-night South Georgia Hog Hunt with Pig Problem was one for the books.

Guide Clayton and his Hunters were locked in from the start — moving with precision and patience that made it look like they’d done this a thousand times before. The result? Three Wild Hogs down under the South Georgia night sky.

They almost had a fourth, but that last pig managed to slip into chest-high grass and earned himself a bit of peace for the night. Still, the team couldn’t have asked for a better ending to their Guided Thermal Hog Hunt.

Clayton shared a cool insight after the Wild Hog Hunt: for the last two days, he’s been eating only meat, salt, and water — living like hunters did long ago. “I wanted to feel what it was like to be human before everything got easy,” he said. “And I feel amazing.”

That mindset sums up what Pig Problem is all about — reconnecting with the primal side of Hunting, using modern Thermal Technology and equipment to do what humans have done for centuries: hunt, adapt, and thrive. Just in a 20th century way.

If you’re ready to experience Guided Hog Hunts in Georgia, Pig Problem delivers the real thing — Thermal Hog Hunting, Wild Boar action, and stories you’ll remember for life.
