While we strive for high-volume harvests every night, Hog Hunting in Georgia sometimes requires a heavy grind. The second night of our recent multi-day trip in Americus presented much slower hog movement than the opener, but it still provided a massive win for the group.

Hog activity was limited throughout the evening, with only one single hog located. Despite our guides covering significant ground and checking multiple South Georgia properties, the hogs remained elusive. However, this is exactly why Thermal Hog Hunting is so effective—it allows us to pivot to predator control when the hogs aren't moving.

While the hogs were scarce, the group was able to capitalize on a long-time goal during our Night Hog Hunts. We successfully located and recovered a Coyote, marking a milestone that several hunters in the group had been chasing for years. It turned a slow night into a highly rewarding experience.

Even nights with limited movement are a vital part of Wild Boar Hunting. Staying patient, adapting to the weather, and continuing to scout sets the stage for success on the final night of a multi-day Hog Hunt. At Pig Problem Inc., we are committed to the Thermal Hunt, whether we are tracking sounders or managing predators across Georgia farmland.

The Reality of Hog Hunting:

A Night with Capt Max

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.
