Night two of this two-night thermal hog hunt in Americus, Georgia brought a steady close to an already productive trip.

Two single hogs were located over the course of the night. The first was detected at a significant distance in open ground. After careful positioning and follow-up, the hog was successfully recovered, even after covering additional ground.

Later in the night, the final field checked produced another opportunity. A single hog was located feeding along the edge of the field, allowing for a controlled setup and a successful recovery.

With both opportunities capitalized on, night two wrapped up efficiently, bringing the hunt to a strong conclusion. Combined with the action from night one, the two-night hunt demonstrated how persistence and coverage continue to produce results during thermal hog hunting in South Georgia.

Night two of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia tested patience early but delivered strong results by the end of the night.

Initial movement was limited, with a single hog located and briefly stalked before moving off into wooded cover. Despite continued effort and extended driving through multiple areas, activity remained quiet for several hours.

As the night stretched on past 4:00 a.m., experience and instinct played a key role. Acting on a hunch, the group committed to checking one last field — even though it meant going out of the way.

That decision paid off.

Upon arrival, a group of six hogs was located, providing the opportunity that had been building all night. Through careful setup and teamwork, the encounter resulted in multiple successful recoveries, closing out the Wild Hog Hunt on a high note.

Night two was a perfect example of why persistence matters in Thermal Hog Hunting across Americus, Georgia — slow nights can turn productive right up until the end.

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia delivered an exciting mix of quick opportunities and extended stalks.

Early in the night, a single hog unexpectedly crossed in front of the vehicle at close range. A fast but controlled setup followed, resulting in a successful recovery.

After regrouping and continuing to scan nearby fields, thermal detection picked up another hog moving in a neighboring area. This encounter required a long stalk of over a mile, with steady movement and careful positioning to close the distance. The effort paid off with another successful recovery.

Even on a single-Night Hunt, patience and persistence proved key. This Guided Hog Hunt highlighted how Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia can shift quickly from fast action to long pursuits, all within the same night.

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.

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia with Pig Problem and Guide Max was a true reminder that Hog Hunting is rarely straightforward — and persistence is often the difference between opportunity and an empty field.

The night began with scattered hog activity. Pigs were located early, but as is common with pressured animals, they stayed on the move and slipped away before a setup could come together. Rather than forcing bad opportunities, Max stayed mobile, continuing to check additional ground and staying ahead of the movement.

As the night went on, hog activity increased across multiple areas. Sounders were spotted in several locations, but shifting positions and timing made clean setups difficult. Still, the effort never stopped. Max continued covering ground, adjusting routes, and staying focused on finding the right opportunity rather than rushing the wrong one.

Late in the night, a large sounder was finally located, creating the best chance of the Wild Hog Hunt. While the setup was challenging and only part of the opportunity could be capitalized on, it was a strong finish after hours of effort and patience.

Nights like this highlight what Thermal Hog Hunting is all about:

  • covering miles

  • adapting to constantly moving animals

  • and staying committed even when conditions don’t line up easily

At Pig Problem Inc, we don’t promise easy nights — we promise honest effort, real hunting, and guides who keep pushing until the last option is checked.

This 1-Night Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia with Pig Problem showcased exactly how productive a Large Group Hog Hunt can be when experienced guides and motivated hunters work together.

With six hunters in the field, Clayton and Jordan coordinated an early plan to bring the entire group together for a full-team stalk on a sounder. The approach was clean, controlled, and efficient — giving everyone the opportunity to be part of the action.

That first encounter resulted in four hogs recovered, setting the tone for the rest of the night.

After the initial success, the hunt split into two teams to continue covering ground. Clayton quickly located another sounder and was able to capitalize, recovering two more hogs. Meanwhile, Jordan found additional hog activity, but those pigs stayed on the move and disappeared into the trees before a safe setup could be made.

That’s the reality of Hog Hunting — sometimes the opportunity comes together, and sometimes the animals dictate the outcome.

Overall, it was a smooth, efficient, and productive night, made even better by having repeat hunters in the group who understood the pace and expectations of Thermal Hog Hunting.

Night 1 of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Pig Problem and Guide Hank started strong and stayed interesting right until the end.

The first encounter came around 11:00 PM, when Wild Hogs were spotted almost immediately after pulling into a field. Under bright moonlight, the pigs noticed the vehicle and moved off quickly — a reminder of how sharp hogs can be when visibility is high.

Instead of rushing on, Hank made the call to wait the area out. That patience paid off. About an hour later, just as it seemed time to move on, a single boar stepped back into the field. The group got set up, stayed composed, and capitalized on the opportunity, resulting in a clean recovery.

The night wasn’t finished yet.

On the final field of the night, Hank spotted a full sounder not far from the van. With no time to waste, the group parked, geared up, and moved into position — only to realize the hogs were walking straight toward them. A quick setup followed, and the encounter turned fast-paced as the hogs scattered into tall winter wheat and nearby cover.

Just as the night seemed ready to close, one last opportunity appeared. A young hog came moving back toward the group, emerging from the tall grass and offering a final chance. The group stayed ready and finished the night strong with another recovery.

From moonlit challenges to late-night patience and close-range encounters, Night 1 delivered exactly what Georgia Thermal Hog Hunting is all about — adapting, staying alert, and making the most of every opportunity.

A strong start to a two-night hunt with Pig Problem Inc, with Night 2 still to come.

Night 1 – Blog Post:

Night 1 of this 2-Night Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia was a true test of patience, communication, and adaptability. With six hunters split between two guides, Hank and Clay, the plan was to maximize opportunity by covering more ground — but the conditions had other ideas.

The night began with an ambitious attempt to split-stalk a sounder, bringing the full group together for one coordinated approach. Unfortunately, swirling wind, dead-silent conditions, and bright moonlight made the stalk extremely unforgiving. Despite careful movement, the hogs picked up on the disturbance and slipped away before an opportunity could fully develop.

After the sounder busted, the decision was made to split up and Hog Hunt separately, giving each guide the chance to adjust tactics and look for new opportunities.

Hank stayed mobile and eventually located a single hog near the edge of a field, positioned close to the road. With the wind working against him, the stalk required a long, patient approach. As if the setup wasn’t challenging enough, two coyotes appeared and pushed the hog toward the treeline, threatening to end the opportunity altogether.

Fortunately, the hog held just inside the edge of the trees. Hank stayed patient, waited for the right moment, and executed a clean setup — resulting in a successful recovery right where the hog stood, with no long drag required.

On the other side of the Wild Hog Hunt, Clay continued working fields and staying persistent but wasn’t able to connect with another hog on Night 1. That’s Hunting — sometimes one side of a split hunt comes together, and sometimes it doesn’t.

Despite the challenges, Night 1 delivered exactly what Thermal Hog Hunting is about:
• adapting to difficult conditions
• staying flexible when plans change
• and capitalizing when the opportunity finally presents itself

With the same group returning for Night 2, spirits stayed high and expectations remained realistic. Night 1 was in the books — and the Boar Hunt was far from over.
