April Hunt Recap from Pig Problem

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

Photo: Hog Hunting @PigProblem

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.

Birthday Memories & Family Traditions:

There’s something special about spending time in The Outdoors with Family — especially when it’s centered around tradition, adventure, and good memories. This past week, Capt. Max had the pleasure of guiding a 2-Night Hunt for Easton and his family, and it was one for the books.

Easton’s birthday celebration was more than just a Hog Hunt — it was a Family Hunt. Surrounded by relatives who share a love for the outdoors, Easton got to celebrate his big day with a Hog Hunting Trip he’ll never forget. The group brought great energy, positive attitudes, and a shared appreciation for responsible Hunting. It’s always refreshing to guide folks who not only understand the importance of land and wildlife management, but who also take time to pass those values down to the next generation.

Family Hog Hunts like this remind us why we do what we do. Seeing Young Hunters out in the field, learning the ropes and building memories with parents, uncles, and grandparents — that’s what it’s all about. It’s more than just time outside. It’s about connection, mentorship, and setting the stage for a lifelong respect for the outdoors.

Over the course of two nights, the group did a great job of re-homing Wild Pigs and helping support local farmers. Everyone played a part, and Easton handled the challenge like a seasoned pro. Watching him step up and take in every part of the experience with maturity and excitement made this Birthday Hunting Trip one that’ll be talked about for years.

At Pig Problem, we love seeing families come together in the field. These moments build bonds, teach responsibility, and ensure that the next generation keeps the tradition alive — the right way.

Happy birthday, Easton! We’re proud to have been a part of your celebration, and we hope to see you and your crew back again soon.

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.

Ready for Your Own Adventure?

Whether you're finding Hogs across the fields or just soaking in the quiet beauty of a South Georgia night, a Hunt with Pig Problem is more than just a Hog Hunt—it’s an experience. Book your spot today and see what your story will be.

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

Photo: Wild Hog Hunts @PigProblem

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

Photo: Sleepy Piggy @PigProblem

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.

Two Nights of Action:

Mario & Harry’s Hog Hunt with Pig Problem

At Pig Problem, we love seeing familiar faces return for another round of Night Hunting action. Longtime Hunters Mario and Harry recently joining us again for a 2 Night Hog Hunt, guided by Capt. Max on the first night and Zev on the second.

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!

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

Photo: 2 Down @PigProblem

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.

Photo:

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

Photo: What A Night @PigProblem

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.

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

Photo: Momma Down @PigProblem

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.

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 there to be success. One Hog, 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 moment, getting a lovely surprise 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

Photo: Pro Hog Hunter @PigProblem

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

Wild Hogs 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 everything rings out, the entire group scatters, turning a well-placed first aim 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, getting 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.

Guided Thermal Hog Hunting is the best way to Hunt—come see for yourself! Book your Hunt with Pig Problem today.

Navigating the Night:

A Tactical Hog Hunt with Guide Hank

Photo: Thermal Hog Hunting @PigProblem

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 success and a great chance on a Solid Pig.

Later in the night, around 2 a.m., another target appeared—a Coyote. One of our hunters took the chance, 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 relocated 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 chance just as it started to run, having success 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 chance and relocate it to a new home 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.
