1-Night Hog Hunts can unfold fast — and this one with Guide Jordan delivered action, challenges, and nonstop learning from start to finish.
After checking several fields early with no activity, Jordan made a call to try new ground. That decision paid off immediately. As soon as the group arrived, they spotted a Sounder of 10+ Wild Hogs feeding on the far side of the field.
The stalk came together perfectly.
The wind was steady, movement was quiet, and the hogs positioned themselves in a low area that naturally funneled them closer. When the first encounter connected, something rare happened — instead of running away, the sounder pushed toward the hunters, creating fast, close-range opportunities.
During the chaos, one hunter experienced a temporary equipment malfunction. Jordan reacted instantly, stepped in, and worked through the issue while the other hunter stayed focused and kept the pressure on the sounder. Clear communication and teamwork paid off, resulting in two hogs recovered from that encounter.
As the team moved in to gather the hogs, another pig unexpectedly broke from the treeline nearby. Jordan quickly set the hunters back up for a follow-up opportunity, but that hog slipped away into cover.
After photos and processing, the Wild Hog Hunt continued. Later in the night, the group encountered a single hog, but a sudden interruption caused it to vanish before a setup could come together — another reminder of how unpredictable Wild Hog Hunting can be.
The final opportunity of the night came when Jordan spotted two more hogs in a different area. The stalk was smooth, the wind was right, and the hunters closed the distance to under 100 yards. Shots were taken, but both hogs made it into thick cover and couldn’t be recovered safely.
Even without additional recoveries, the night showcased exactly what Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is all about:
• adapting on the fly
• managing fast-moving sounders
• handling equipment issues calmly
• making smart, safe decisions in the field
Jordan led with confidence, communication, and patience — and the hunters stayed engaged and positive through every encounter.
Two hogs recovered, multiple stalks executed, and a full night of action under the stars — a solid one-night Hog Hunting Trip with Pig Problem.
