Pig Problem
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.
