A Night for the History Books

Some nights, the stars align and the Wild Hogs are moving across every field in Americus, GA. Last night was one of those nights. Guide Noah set a new personal record for himself, leading his group to a staggering 17 harvests in a single night of Guided Hog Hunting. Also this is only night 1 of there 2 night hog hunt!

The Reality of the Hunt: Marksmanship Matters

While 17 pigs in a night is an incredible milestone, it’s important to remember that Wild Boar Hunting is a true challenge. We can put a group in front of a sounder of 20+ hogs, but at the end of the day, it comes down to the hunter's marksmanship and composure. Hunting Wild Hogs is different—it isn’t easy, and it isn’t a "given."

A night like this is rare and speaks to the skill of the hunters we had out with us. Whether it was the first 4 pigs on Wise Road or the 7 pigs in a single go-around at Wilmar, these guys were locked in. We’ve seen groups face massive sounders and only secure one or two, so seeing a team execute this well is truly awesome.

Protecting the Farmland

During the night, we even ran into Wes, a local farmer whose fields we protect. He personally thanked the Hog SWAT team for our work in mitigating crop damage. To wrap up the night, the team located one final sounder near "Rats Nest" just before 4:00 AM and secured 5 more pigs to bring the total to 17.

This was easily the Best Hog Hunting we’ve seen in a long time. We are beyond grateful to these hunters for their incredible effort and for their precision in the field.

Night 2 they got 1 Wild Hog!
