These guys were able to get 4 Wild Hogs on this Thermal Hog Hunt. They got 3 pigs out of a sounder after a long night of checking fields in Americus, Ga. Then they waited in a field and found a Wild Boar in the swamp. They were able to drop him from a distance, and the video is going to be epic! We hope these guys had a great time Hog Hunting with us at Pig Problem!

Operation: Single Night Tactical Session
Location: South Georgia
When you are looking for Hog Hunting in Georgia, it often comes down to one perfect moment. Guide Hank’s recent session was a masterclass in patience and precision—proving that even on a quiet night, our thermal gear and expert guiding ensure that when the opportunity arrives, we make it count.
After scouting several properties, Hank’s thermal located a single traveler deep in the field. The team didn't hesitate. They executed a stealthy approach, walking right up to the target's position without being detected.
The result was a textbook harvest. With a single, well-placed chance, the hog was re-homed right where it stood. It’s one of the most rewarding sights in Thermal Hog Hunting: seeing the animal sink to its feet instantly, a testament to the effectiveness of our equipment and the composure of our guests.
Following the success of the first field, Hank and the group spent several hours covering additional acreage. While the sounders stayed in the thick cover for the remainder of the night, the team utilized the time to scan the "hot zones" and monitor field activity.
In Wild Hog Hunting, "success" isn't just measured by the number of animals; it's about the quality of the stalk and placement. One clean, professional harvest is a win any night of the week.
The Advantage At Pig Problem, we pride ourselves on providing the best equipment for the job. Our Thermal Hunting gear allows guests to see exactly where a target is, even in total darkness, ensuring that the first chance is the only chance needed.
A Professional Outdoor Experience Whether you are out for five hours or the whole night, we treat every Hog Hunt as an opportunity to master the terrain. This dedication to the "scout" is why we are the top-rated destination for Night Hog Hunts in the region.

Guide: Clayton
Hunting: Night Thermal Hog Hunting
Location: South Georgia Agriculture Belt
One of the best parts of offering the Best Hog Hunting in Georgia is the people we meet in the field. This recent session with Clayton featured a paramedic from Albany and a psychologist from Jacksonville—two high-pressure professionals who came out to the South Georgia dirt to unplug and experience a Premier Night Hog Hunt.
Between stalks, the night was filled with great conversation. Clayton and the group spent hours discussing everything from cinematography to literature, proving that a Hog Hunting Trip with Pig Problem is as much about the experience and the people as it is about the harvest. When you spend all night scanning the horizon with thermal, you have plenty of time to swap stories.
The evening started with a challenge. In the first field of the night, Clayton’s thermal gear picked up a small group. However, these animals were incredibly skittish, likely sensing the pressure of the season. They slipped back into the timber before a stalk could even begin.
In Wild Hog Hunting, you have to take what the land gives you. If the big groups are playing it safe in the trees, our guides pivot to find the high-activity individuals moving across the open ground.
The strategy shifted to newly planted fields—prime real estate for lone travelers looking for an easy meal.
The First Single: On a fresh planting, Clayton led the group on a stealthy approach, resulting in a successful collection.
The Second Single: Later in the night on a different property, the team located another single traveler. The group moved with precision and, once again, did exactly what needed to be done to secure the harvest.
By the end of the night, the coolers were heavier, and the group had experienced the reality of Thermal Hog Hunting.
The Professional Choice We frequently host first responders and professionals who appreciate our disciplined, tactical approach to Wild Boar Hunting. We provide an environment where you can focus on the task at hand while enjoying the best outdoor hospitality in Georgia.
Tactical Field Mastery Whether we are tracking a massive sounder or a lone single on a newly planted field, our guides utilize the best thermal imaging technology in the industry. We don't just find the animals; we understand their behavior, allowing us to adjust our stalks based on how skittish the group is acting.

When it comes to Hog Hunting, success often comes down to the ability to adapt in real-time. Our latest Thermal Hog Hunting trip in the Americus, Georgia area started off slow, with the group covering significant ground and checking several South Georgia fields before the activity picked up.
While working toward the back of a sprawling field, we initially located a single hog. However, as our team began to reposition, Pig Problem guide Hank identified a sounder of hogs moving along a distant tree line. We immediately adjusted our strategy for these Night Hog Hunts to take advantage of the better opportunity.
After a careful, tactical approach, our hunters moved into position just as the hogs began to shift. This is where the precision of Wild Boar Hunting with thermal really shines. Despite the limited window for a setup, a quick and controlled sequence followed, resulting in three hogs successfully recovered.
The remainder of the night was spent patrolling the surrounding acreage. While no additional activity was found, the night was a perfect example of why our Hog Hunts are the most effective in the state. We turned a slow start into a multiple-recovery success through expert scouting and the best Thermal Hog Hunt equipment in the business."

Night two of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia delivered steady action and clean results.
Early in the night, two hogs were located at long distance, split across open ground. Based on wind direction and positioning, the decision was made to focus on the higher-percentage opportunity. A long stalk followed, resulting in a successful recovery after a controlled setup.
Moving on to the next field, two additional single hogs were located near the back edge of the property. While approaching from the tree line, movement in the woods revealed a small group of hogs, but unfavorable wind conditions limited the opportunity. Rather than force the setup, attention shifted back to the single hog.
That decision paid off. A clean setup followed, resulting in another successful recovery, bringing the night’s total to two hogs recovered.
Night two reinforced what Guided Hog Hunting with Pig Problem is about — reading conditions, making smart calls, and capitalizing on opportunities that make sense. Combined with night one, the 2-Night Thermal Hunt closed out with strong results across multiple fields in South Georgia.
This 1-Night Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia delivered fast-paced action and strong results from start to finish.
The night began as a coordinated hunt alongside another guide, where a sounder was located early. With the full group working together, a careful stalk and strategic setup led to multiple successful recoveries in the first encounter.
After splitting up to continue covering ground, additional hog activity was quickly located. A single Wild Hog was recovered in the next field, followed later by a small sounder that produced further recoveries.

Night two of this Pig Problem Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia brought a mix of opportunity and challenge.
Early in the night, hogs were encountered at close range across a ditch, resulting in three successful recoveries. The terrain allowed for a controlled setup and efficient outcome despite limited visibility.
Later, another sounder presented an opportunity, but shifting wind conditions and restricted access created a difficult situation. With only one viable approach and unfavorable wind, the hogs detected movement before a setup could be completed.
Even with those challenges, the two-night hunt concluded with nine total hogs recovered, marking a strong and effective Hog Hunt.
Conditions don’t always cooperate, but adaptability and experience continue to make the difference.

Night two of this four-night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia required patience and persistence.
Several fields were checked throughout the night with little activity early on. Conditions looked promising, but movement stayed limited for hours. As is often the case with Nighttime Hog Control, success came late rather than fast.
Around 2:00 a.m., thermal detection finally picked up activity in one of the fields. Two hogs entered the area and were successfully recovered after careful shot placement and confirmation.
While the night didn’t produce a large group, it was a productive outcome after extended scouting and steady effort. With two nights remaining, the focus stays on locating consistent movement and continuing effective hog control for local farmland.
Every hunt is different, and nights like this highlight why experience, timing, and persistence matter in Wild Hog Hunting across South Georgia.
