When you book a Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia, you never know what the first field of the night will bring — and this group started their 2-night Hog Hunt with exactly the kind of excitement hunters hope for. Guide Hank led the way for Night 1, and within minutes of rolling into the fields, the action began.

Spotting 5 Hogs in the First Field

The night kicked off strong when the group located five Wild Hogs right away. Because of the wind direction and the slope of the ground, the hogs stayed tucked just out of sight until the team got within roughly 60 yards.

A slow, controlled approach was key. Hank positioned everyone carefully so the group could make their move together once the hogs were fully in view.

A Clean Approach + Solid First Push

When the team finally stepped into position, things came together fast. The hunters connected with three hogs, while the remaining two slipped into the treeline. Had they not been that close to cover, the outcome could’ve been even bigger — but that’s part of real Georgia Hog Hunting. The terrain always keeps you guessing.

Covering Ground Across Multiple Fields

After the initial excitement, Hank and the crew continued moving across several more fields. Deer were active throughout the night, and the group stayed on the lookout for more hogs as they worked through the property.

Even without additional hog encounters, the night closed out strong. Three hogs on Night 1 is a solid start to any 2 Night Hog Hunt with a group of five.

Why Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia Is So Successful

Pig Problem specializes in Thermal Hog Hunts that take place on active farmland, where hogs are always on the move and causing damage. That’s why nights like this — locating hogs quickly, adjusting for wind, reading the terrain — are part of what makes Thermal Hunting here so unique. Every field offers a new opportunity.

Wrapping Up Night 1 — On to Night 2

Night 1 was a successful kickoff to this group’s 2-night Thermal Boar Hunt with Hank. With three hogs recovered and plenty of wildlife movement, the stage is set for a big Night 2.

Stay tuned for the full recap.

Northern Lights In South Georgia

It’s not every day you see the Northern Lights in South Georgia, but tonight was one of those unforgettable nights. The sky glowed with colors that most of us never get to witness down here — a rare sight that made the long night even more special.

Guide Clay and his hunters covered plenty of ground before finding a small group of pigs in the second field. They were spread out across the area, which meant taking a careful, steady approach to each one individually — the kind of patience and focus that Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is known for.

After that, the fields went quiet, but nobody minded. The combination of the northern lights, the cool air, and the peaceful stillness of the Georgia night made it one of those Wild Hog Hunts you just don’t forget.

Every Hog Hunt with Pig Problem is different — some are fast-paced and full of action, and others slow down and remind us why we love being out there. It’s not just about the pursuit; it’s about the experience, the atmosphere, and the chance to see the world in a way few people ever do.

Another memorable night in the books with Guide Clay and Pig Problem, under one of the prettiest skies South Georgia has ever seen.

Boar Hunting In Georgia

Guide Kaleb recently had the pleasure of welcoming back Nick and his son Gary for a redo Hog Hunt — and this time, the night delivered.

Things kicked off with a field full of coyotes, but the focus was on finding Wild Hogs, so the crew stayed patient. As the night rolled on, they saw plenty of deer and a few more coyotes, but still no Pigs. After a couple of setups with no luck, they loaded back into the van and moved on to a new field.

At first, it looked like just one lone deer in the distance — until it bolted. That’s when Kaleb spotted what they’d been waiting for: a Big Boar moving through the moonlit field.

With the full moon shining bright, the group made a quiet 500-yard stalk to get into range. As the Hog began moving toward them, everything lined up. The crew stayed steady, and when the moment came, they landed a clean success.

The energy was high, and the excitement was real — especially after their previous Thermal Hog Hunt turned up empty. Nick and Gary were all smiles and already talking about coming back again. It was a night full of hard work, patience, and unforgettable Hunting Memories.

Wild Hog Hunting in Americus, Georgia. Kaleb was able to get these guys on a sounder pretty early in the night and then it slowed down. The hunters checked other fields that were taking damage, but were only able to recover these 3 hogs.
