Night 1 of this two-night hunt with Guide Jordan was a perfect example of how quickly Thermal Hog Hunting can change — and how preparation and communication make all the difference.

The evening began with a thorough range session, where the hunters asked great questions and took time to understand the process. That foundation paid off later in the field, as clear communication and calm decision-making were key throughout the night.

After checking several fields with little activity, the Hog Hunt came alive when Jordan encountered a sounder of hogs feeding in a corn field alongside a large group of deer. Situations like this require extra patience and precision. Jordan walked the hunters through the plan step by step, explaining how hogs and deer often share the same ground — and how to approach the pigs without pushing deer into their path.

Using a narrow opening along the treeline, the group made a quiet, controlled stalk. Once in position, what initially appeared to be just a few hogs revealed itself as a larger sounder bundled together, creating a single, intense thermal signature.

When the opportunity came, the field erupted with movement. The sounder split in multiple directions, and Jordan maintained constant verbal control, calling pauses when needed to ensure everyone’s safety — especially as deer moved through the area. Once the field cleared, the hunters were able to continue safely and effectively.

By the end of the encounter, two hogs were successfully recovered. As the group approached, Jordan even spotted additional hogs still lingering deeper in the field, creating another opportunity — though no further recoveries were made.

Photos were taken, the hogs were processed, and the hunters requested to keep one of the heads as well — a great way to remember a successful first night.

Beyond the action, what stood out most was the hunters themselves. They listened closely, followed commands perfectly, and handled the entire night with confidence — especially impressive for those new to this style of Hog Hunting.

A strong start to a two-night hunt, full of action, learning, and excitement — and a great Night 1 with Guide Jordan in South Georgia.

Some Hog Hunts stand out not just for the pigs you find, but for the people you Hunt with — and this night with Darrell was easily one of Clay’s favorites of the season. From the moment they met, the two hit it off, talking and laughing through nearly the entire Thermal Hog Hunt. It felt less like guiding and more like chasing hogs with an old friend.

The night couldn’t have started better.
The very first field Clay pulled into held a Big Georgia Boar, standing broadside in the open. Darrell set up calmly, took one clean chance, and the Wild Boar never took another step. A picture-perfect start to the Boar Hunt.

Later in the night, the crew came across a sounder of around 20 hogs. The stalk came together quickly, but the fast-moving group slipped into the treeline before a recovery could be made. Clay searched the edge of the woods thoroughly but wasn’t able to locate any hogs inside the cover — a reminder of how unpredictable and fast wild hogs can be, even under thermal.

Even so, the night remained a great experience. Good company, a Big Boar on the ground, and plenty of stories to take home. Hunts like this are exactly why we love what we do.

We hope Darrell comes back soon — he’s the kind of hunter that makes every mile, every scan, and every stalk worth it.

Wild Boars Are The Toughest Animals!!

Some Hog Hunts keep you humble — and this was one of them.

Guide Clayton led a two-night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia, and while the first night was quiet, night two brought some long-awaited action. Around 2 a.m., the team finally spotted a Big Boar with the wind perfectly in their favor. Everything lined up just right… until it didn’t.

It took several well-placed rounds before the hog took off for the trees without showing much reaction. Wild hogs are unbelievably tough animals — with thick skin, dense muscle, and layers of tough cartilage that can make even a clean hit look like nothing happened. It’s no wonder they’re one of the hardest mammals in North America to drop clean.

Their hides evolved to protect them from predators and, more importantly, from each other. Boars use their tusks — razor-sharp and dangerous — to fight for dominance, and that thick skin is their armor. It’s part of what makes Boar Hunting in Georgia so challenging and so impressive.

Even though this Boar disappeared into the trees, the Hog Hunt was far from a loss. The hunters were laid-back, great company, and full of stories — one of them even owns a tackle shop in Anchorage and happens to be best friends with Big Dan from Homer, Alaska. Small world moments like that make every hunt special.

That’s the thing about Hog Hunting — it’s unpredictable, real, and never guaranteed. But every night in the field brings new stories, new friendships, and a deeper appreciation for just how incredible these animals really are.

At Pig Problem, we live for these moments — the challenge, the chase, and the chance to experience the wild side of Georgia Boar Hunting.

Night 1

Last night kicked off a two-night Boar Hunt with Pig Problem, and Guide Kaleb led the way. The night began quietly with coyotes and deer moving through the fields, but patience always pays off in Hog Hunting. Before long, the group spotted Wild Hogs and set up for a careful stalk.

The pigs slipped into the tree line, and for a while it seemed like they might have disappeared for good. But with persistence and steady movement, the hunters found themselves back in position. The hard work paid off, and the team successfully put one hog on the ground while another slipped back into the woods.

It was the kind of Guided Hunt that reminds us why we love Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia—the challenge, the strategy, and the reward of being in the right place at the right time. The group shared laughs, swapped hunting stories, and ended the night with excitement for what’s to come.

The crew is already geared up and ready for Night 2 of this Guided Hog Hunt in Americus, GA, and we’re looking forward to another round of adventure under the stars.

Thermal Boar Hunting

Night 1

The Hog Hunt began under light rain with little movement in sight. As the weather cleared, deer began to appear, but still no sign of Wild Hogs. Spirits started to dip, but just after 4 AM, the guide spotted a Lone Boar rooting along the field’s edge. With wind in their favor and clouds covering the moon, it was the perfect setup for a silent approach. The group got into position, and the Wild Boar got a picture. Excitement was high, and the Hog Hunters were thrilled to finally have their moment.

Night 2

The second night was calm and clear, with a bright moon lighting up the fields. Deer were everywhere once again, and while no Pigs showed, a curious Coyote made things interesting. The guide attempted to call it in, but the coyote circled and caught their scent before disappearing. Even without a harvest, the night was full of stories, laughs, and memories under the stars. The hunters were a fantastic group to share this Thermal Hog Hunt with, and both nights of Hog Hunting will be ones to remember.

Some nights just feel promising from the start — especially when you’re welcoming back repeat clients you’ve built a bond with. Guide Kaleb knew it was going to be a good one.

After getting word from Max that a nearby field was seeing fresh Wild Hog activity, the group made the hour-long ride to check it out. Things started off slow with only a few deer moving through, but around 1 a.m., they spotted their first Hog — a Lone Boar working through the field. The setup was easy, just steps from the van, and the team handled it quickly.

Back on the Hog Hunt shortly after, they located a group of three more Pigs not far off. A brief 50-yard approach was all it took, and the team moved efficiently to secure two of them while the third made it to the tree line.

With the clock pushing 4 a.m., Kaleb was ready to wrap things up and began Field Butchering. But just as they approached the drop-off site, one more Big Boar appeared. The crew didn’t miss a beat — a final short stalk sealed the night.

Kaleb finished Butchering just before sunrise, ending a long but rewarding night. “These are truly some of the best guys I’ve had,” he said. “Can’t wait to have them back.”

The photos from the Wild Hog Hunt say it all — memories made, fields checked, and another successful night in the books with Pig Problem.

Two Nights of Hog Hunting with Peanut Protector, Guide Capt. Clayton

At Pig Problem, the team embraces the wild, unpredictable, and downright hilarious adventures that come with Hog Hunting. Recently, Guide Capt. Clayton, affectionately known as the Peanut Protector, had the pleasure of leading a fantastic group on a 2 Night Hog Hunting excursion, filled with unforgettable stories and plenty of laughter.

Night 1: Old Friends and New Adventures

Reuniting with familiar faces is always a treat in the Hunting world. On this trip, Andy and John returned after successfully Wild Hog Hunting with Pig Problem Inc two years ago. With excitement in the air, the Hog Hunt began.

Early in the night, the group spotted a small hog lounging in a peanut field, surrounded by a curious gathering of deer. The evening appeared to be brimming with potential!

As they carefully moved through the flipped peanut field, Andy and John found a good vantage point. After taking aim, they took two shots, successfully dropping the Hog. However, the excitement didn’t end there; as the group approached the Wild Hog, they realized it was still alive. In a great show of teamwork, Andy handed over his SIG P322 pistol, equipped with a suppressor and TLR8, to Capt. Clayton for the final dispatch, turning a tense moment into a shared experience.

Although the rest of the night was quieter—only spotting a few deer—the camaraderie on the Hunt kept spirits high. One particularly amusing instance was Andy’s unique countdown method whenever he prepared to take a shot. While our guides count down “3, 2, BANG,” Andy preferred “3, 2, Big Titties.” Capt. Clayton couldn’t help but chuckle at Andy's seriousness whenever he expressed this countdown style on the range.

Night 2: A Little Bit of Chaos

If Night 1 was memorable, Night 2 was nothing short of exhilarating. The group kicked off the night with the excitement of taking down 2 Wild Hogs and a Coyote .

Capt. Clayton quickly spotted a single Pig early in the night, but as they began their stalk, a deer started snorting loudly, spooking the Wild Pig back into the safety of the trees. Capt. Clayton humorously reflected on the situation, imagining himself choking out a deer right on the spot—a testament to his frustration with deer as the second least favorite animal to encounter at night. Number one on that list? Birds—Capt. Clayton had no love for birds either.

After a long stretch of quiet, the nighttime adventure picked up again around 2 AM, and the team had a solid opportunity to take aim at (another) coyote, resulting in a successful shot.

A Memorable Experience

While the first night had its challenges, the laughter and camaraderie made everything worthwhile. Each Wild Hog Hunt brings unique obstacles and surprises, and it’s often the unexpected moments—like deer creating chaos—that create the Best Hunting Memories.

As the Two-Night Hunting Adventure came to a close, the team expressed gratitude for the opportunity to share their passion for Nighttime Hunting with a group excited to embrace the wild experiences that come with it. Every adventure brings everyone closer together, creating unforgettable stories to cherish.

Thanks to Andy and John who joined Capt. Clayton on this Two-Night Hunting Trip. The crew at Pig Problem Inc is already looking forward to their next round in the field. For those interested in embarking on their own Thermal Hog Hunting adventure, reaching out to Pig Problem is a must—who knows what memories may lie ahead!
