Some nights are worth every mile — and this 1-Night Hog Hunt with Guide Max was exactly that.
The group covered a lot of ground early, checking fields across South Georgia before eventually circling back toward Americus, Ga. Sometimes that’s how Hog Hunting goes: long drives, empty fields, and then suddenly everything comes together in one place.
Once the action started, it didn’t slow down. The crew first encountered a Single Hog, setting the tone for the night. Not long after, they found what every Hog Hunter hopes for — a Large Sounder working a field together.
With solid coordination and steady setups, three hogs were successfully recovered, with additional hits during the encounter. Nights like this show how fast things can escalate when you finally get on the right pigs in the right spot.
To top it off, the group also encountered a Coyote later in the night, adding another memorable moment to an already eventful Predator Hunt.
What made the night even better was the group itself. Easygoing, enthusiastic, and fun to hunt with — the kind of people guides love having in the field. Those are the nights that remind us why we love doing what we do.
Another successful Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt in the books with Pig Problem and Guide Max — full of movement, surprises, and plenty of action from start to finish.
