Some Wild Hog Hunts come easy — and some make you work for it. Last night’s South Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Hank was the kind that tested patience and skill, but ended in a solid win.
The night started with a single Wild Hog spotted across a massive ditch in the first field. With no clean shot, the crew circled around, only to find the hog had slipped out of sight. A little later, Hank spotted two more pigs feeding near the road. He eased past them to avoid spooking the group, looped back around, and pulled into the field — but once again, the hogs had vanished.
That’s when persistence kicked in. The team returned to the first field and finally caught sight of a group of pigs mixed in with a few deer. As the deer bolted, it almost set the pigs off, but Hank moved fast, found an angle, and lined up the shots. In a tense few seconds, both hunters connected, dropping two hogs before the sounder scattered. That’s what Hog Hunting is all about!
It was a long night, but a successful one — and a reminder that the Best Hunts are earned through patience, teamwork, and grit.
