Thermal Hog Hunting — Photo: How Can A First Hunt Get Better Than This? @PigProblem

The pictures say it all. This was a Birthday Hunt and this young man’s First Hunt and we are happy it could be with us at Pig Problem. Not long into the night, they spotted a small Sounder of Pigs. One was re-homed in the field while another made it to the tree-line. You could see he was hooked right away. Buck fever was real.

Later, they moved northwest to avoid the weather and found another Wild Hog, but it got spooked by a car. An hour later, back in the same field, a Big Lone Boar was hanging out. They made the stalk, adrenaline was pumping, and the Young Hunter re-homed the Pig on the run.

It was a night to remember. The family said they’ll definitely be back. In the dad’s words: “You made this night special—thank you.”

Every Hog Hunt is different, and this 2 Night Hunting Trip with Guide Zev was no exception. With a mix of long Hunting Stalks, Predator Control, and First-Time Hunters eager to learn, it was an exciting couple of nights in the fields.

Night 1:

A Strong Start with Hogs and Coyotes

The hunt started off strong, getting a coyote a coyote in the very first field. A promising sign of the action to come.

Later in the night, the group spotted a Single Hog at 850 yards. Rather than rushing in, they took a slow, methodical stalk to close the distance. When they finally got into position, it was perfect, and the Hog Dropped where it stood.

A second opportunity came at a spot near Preston. Another single hog presented itself, and they took the moment , but this one wasn’t as good. The hog escaped into the darkness. It happens, but the thrill of the hunt was still there.

Night 2:

No Pigs, But Plenty of Excitemen

The same group was back for round two, and Zev quickly realized these were some of the easiest Hunters to guide. They were super chill, excited about everything, and willing to listen and learn.

While the Wild Pigs didn’t cooperate, the night still had plenty of action. A Coyote went down, and they even took a moment at a beaver, keeping things interesting. For hunters with almost no experience—barely even handling guns before this Hunting Trip—they followed every instruction perfectly. Zev had nothing but praise for them, saying, “I love these guys.”
