Summer Hunting In Georgia

Guide Kaleb recently led an unforgettable two-night Thermal Hog Hunt filled with action, laughs, and surprises.

Night 1 started slow, but things quickly picked up. The group spotted a Group of Six Pigs that never paused long enough for a clean setup. Not long after, a Massive Bobcat wandered through the field—followed by a surprise visit from a curious Coyote. The team made a long, patient stalk and took a chance at over 200 yards. As the night wound down, the skies lit up with what Kaleb described as the biggest comet he’s ever seen. Wild stories and laughter wrapped up the night.

Night 2 brought results. Kaleb called this pair of Hunters some of the best he’s guided—nonstop jokes and good energy. After checking a few empty fields, they moved to a large peanut field where Kaleb, spotting from above, saw a Lone Pig—then, moments later, a whole Sounder in the distance. The team opted to go for the group and made a stalk of over 1,000 yards. Their patience paid off, landing two Wild Hogs and a third hit that got away. After plenty of photos and laughs, they packed out nearly all the meat themselves. The rest of the night was quiet, aside from some deer and coyotes chasing mice.

This Wild Hog Hunt was full of everything that makes Hog Hunting what it is—strategy, surprises, and great company. And according to the guys, they’ll definitely be back.

Hunting Isn’t Guaranteed

Guide Wes recently led a 2 Night Hog Hunt with a great crew. The first night brought in a Coyote, but the second night didn’t turn up any Wild Pigs. And while we’d love to find Hogs every time we roll up to a field, the truth is: Hunting is NEVER Guaranteed—and it never will be.

If it were easy, it might not be as rewarding. Finding Pigs comes down to being in the right field at the right time. These animals are smart. They adapt. And they know they’re being hunted. In Georgia, Wild Hogs are the most targeted species out there—every Farmer either has a Hog Problem or knows someone who does.

When pigs feel the pressure, they shift their patterns to survive. But we know they’re still out there. They may not move through the same fields every night, but they almost always bed in the same places. One sow can have 10 to 30 piglets each year. That’s a fast-growing population—one that’s always on the move.

At Pig Problem, we know it takes more than luck. It takes patience, timing, and strategy. We’ll be ready when they come back through.

Thermal Hog Hunting

Guide Kaleb knew it was going to be a good Hog Hunt from the start — the group brought great energy, and it didn’t take long for things to get exciting. Around midnight, they spotted a Sounder of Hogs tucked into the tall cotton. Visibility was tough, but the crew worked together and locked in on the biggest one of the group.

As the night went on, things slowed down, but the memories didn’t. The crew swapped Hunting stories, shared laughs, and made the kind of connections that remind us why we do this.

It was the perfect example of what Pig Problem Hunts are all about — good people, great moments, and nights you won’t forget.

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.

Crop Protection

When there’s no client Hog Hunt booked, we’re still out there. Crop Protection is a big part of what we do — and it’s our responsibility to Help Local Farmers Protect Farm Fields from Hog Damage.

The night started off slow with plenty of deer moving through, but around 2 a.m., a couple Wild Hogs finally showed up. One was recovered, and another made it to cover after being engaged.

It’s not always fast and furious, but every night in the field counts. Whether it’s a Guided Hog Hunt or a Farm Crop Protection run, we’re always working to keep the pressure on.

Tough Hunting

This Hog Hunt had its challenges. A few issues early on, a whole lot of deer in the fields, and by 2:30, the crew called it. No Pigs on the ground.

That’s Hunting, though. We don’t bait. We don’t guarantee. We scout, stalk, and give it everything we’ve got — but sometimes the Hogs win.

First Hog Hunt

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.”

Night 2 Recap

Night two of the Hog Hunt with Guide Kaleb brought smoother action and a bit of early excitement.

After heading into the second Farm Field of the night, the team quickly spotted a Sounder moving through the area. With conditions just right, the group had a clean setup and made the most of the opportunity. Two Wild Hogs were successfully recovered and to new homes, with signs that a few others had moved off after the initial engagement.

The rest of the night settled down, with the only movement coming from curious deer crossing through the fields. Even with things going quiet after that first encounter, it was a solid night of Thermal Hog Hunting and a good reminder that anything can happen out here—sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

Stay tuned for more updates from the field as Kaleb and the crew continue Tracking Hogs through the South Georgia Farmland under the cover of night.

Night Hunt Recap

Night 1 with Guide Kaleb

Our latest Wild Hog Hunt kicked off with Guide Kaleb leading the way on a 2-Night Hog Hunt—and night one was anything but dull.

Things started out a little rocky. They had a bit of a hiccup right out of the gate after bumping the first hog of the night. But with persistence and patience, the crew pushed forward and quickly turned the night around.

Soon after, they spotted a Lone Hog just 20 feet from the van—an up-close encounter that got everyone’s adrenaline pumping. With the Thermal locked in and the team moving quietly, the stalk was on.

The action didn’t stop there. A little while later, we moved in on a small group of three Wild Hogs. The setup was perfect, and two were successfully recovered by the end of the push.

Despite the early challenge, night one ended on a high note with plenty of excitement and great teamwork. Kaleb kept the group locked in and focused, making sure every move counted.

Stay tuned for the recap of night two—it only gets better from here.

Night 2:

Patience Pays Off

Night 2 of Thermal Hog Hunting brought a bit of a challenge. Luke and Clay split up to cover more Hunting Ground, but overall movement was slow thanks to a storm that had just rolled through. Still, Hank managed to spot some Pigs out in a field and gave Clay a call to bring his group over to my location.

We geared up and set out on a stalk toward the last place I’d seen the Wild Pigs, but when we got there, they were gone. Hank climbed up on a pivot for a better vantage point and finally spotted them again—this time tucked deep into some tall grass. It was too thick for a chance, so they decided to wait it out.

Over an hour passed with no clear opportunity, but patience paid off. Eventually, the Hogs moved out of the grass just enough to give us our window. We took our chance and rehomed three Wild Hogs before the night was over. Farmland protetion completed.

It wasn’t an easy Hog Hunt, but it was a rewarding one. Sometimes, the key is simply staying ready and waiting for that perfect moment.
