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 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.
South Georgia Crop Protection
Spring is here in South Georgia, and with it comes the hustle and bustle of planting season. Peanuts, Cotton, and Corn are going into the ground right now—and that makes our farmers’ fields tempting targets for one of the region’s Most Destructive Pests: Wild Hogs. Last week, Guide Hank and his dad teamed up on a Crop‑Protection mission—and together they rehomed four hungry hogs before they could wreak havoc on those freshly planted rows.
Why Wild Hogs Threaten Your Spring Planting
Wild Pigs are more than just a nuisance. A single Sounder can gouge hundreds of square feet of soil in a single night as they root for bulbs, tubers, and newly sprouted seedlings. That means:
Seed Loss & Poor Germination. As hogs dig up seedbeds, precious peanuts and corn kernels never get the chance to sprout.
Soil Compaction & Erosion. Their heavy bodies and constant trampling can compact the soil, making it harder for roots to penetrate and for water to absorb.
Increased Disease Risk. Disturbed soil can kick up spores and pathogens, raising the chance of fungal infections and rot for vulnerable seedlings.
When you’re investing time and money in planting, every row matters. A few torn‑up patches today can turn into a significant hit on yields come harvest.
A Family Affair:
Hank and His Dad in Action
On a recent Wild Hog Hunt, our own Guide Hank brought his dad along for some hands‑on Field Protection. Using our advanced Thermal Gear, they pinpointed four hogs sneaking into Farmland. Within minutes, they’d dispatched the threat—no crop damage, no early‑season losses, and, most importantly, peace of mind for the farmer.

Hunting In April

Two Nights in the Field with Max and Caleb
April Hunt Recap from Pig Problem
This past week, Guide Capt Max and our newest team member, Caleb, headed out for a Two-Night Hog Hunt with a great Group of Hunters. Caleb is currently training under Max’s wing, and this Hunting Trip was a perfect opportunity to gain some solid experience in the field. Here’s how it went down.
Night 1:
Weather Delays, But Worth the Wait
The first night started off slow. The usual signs of activity just weren’t there early on, and before long, the skies opened up with rain and thunder rolling through the area. It looked like we might have to pack it in, but after a bit of patience, the storm passed—and so did our luck.
Not long after the skies cleared, movement picked up. A Single Hog made its way into the Farm Field, and our Hunters were ready. Let’s just say they made the most of the opportunity. That one moment turned the whole night around.
Night 2:
Slow Action, Great Company
Night two was quieter. Wild Hog movement was minimal with only a few coyotes and the occasional deer sighting. Sometimes the Pigs just don’t want to play the game, but that’s part of what makes each Hog Hunt unique.
What the night lacked in action, it made up for in laughs and good company. These Hog Hunters were a great group—stories were shared, jokes were flying, and memories were made. That’s what it’s all about.
Caleb’s doing an awesome job getting up to speed under Max’s guidance, and we’re excited for the future as he becomes part of the regular guide team.
Until next time—stay ready, stay sharp, and we’ll see you in the fields for Thermal Hog Hunting.
Birthday Hunting Trip

Birthday Memories & Family Traditions:
Easton’s Hog Hunt with Capt. Max
There’s something special about spending time in The Outdoors with Family — especially when it’s centered around tradition, adventure, and good memories. This past week, Capt. Max had the pleasure of guiding a 2-Night Hunt for Easton and his family, and it was one for the books.
Easton’s birthday celebration was more than just a Hog Hunt — it was a Family Hunt. Surrounded by relatives who share a love for the outdoors, Easton got to celebrate his big day with a Hog Hunting Trip he’ll never forget. The group brought great energy, positive attitudes, and a shared appreciation for responsible Hunting. It’s always refreshing to guide folks who not only understand the importance of land and wildlife management, but who also take time to pass those values down to the next generation.
Family Hog Hunts like this remind us why we do what we do. Seeing Young Hunters out in the field, learning the ropes and building memories with parents, uncles, and grandparents — that’s what it’s all about. It’s more than just time outside. It’s about connection, mentorship, and setting the stage for a lifelong respect for the outdoors.
Over the course of two nights, the group did a great job of re-homing Wild Pigs and helping support local farmers. Everyone played a part, and Easton handled the challenge like a seasoned pro. Watching him step up and take in every part of the experience with maturity and excitement made this Birthday Hunting Trip one that’ll be talked about for years.
At Pig Problem, we love seeing families come together in the field. These moments build bonds, teach responsibility, and ensure that the next generation keeps the tradition alive — the right way.
Happy birthday, Easton! We’re proud to have been a part of your celebration, and we hope to see you and your crew back again soon.
2 Night Hog Hunting

Two Nights of Action:
Mario & Harry’s Hog Hunt with Pig Problem
At Pig Problem, we love seeing familiar faces return for another round of Night Hunting action. Longtime Hunters Mario and Harry recently joining us again for a 2 Night Hog Hunt, guided by Capt. Max on the first night and Zev on the second.
Night 1 with Capt. Max
Guide Capt Max led the way on the first night, covering plenty of ground in search of Wild Hogs. The conditions were just right, and the night started off strong with a couple of Coyotes spotted and a Solid Boar added to the tally. Mario and Harry know the drill, making for an efficient and enjoyable Hog Hunt.
Night 2 with Zev
Zev took over on the second night, and the streak continued with two more Hogs found. He had nothing but good things to say about Mario and Harry, calling them “cool dudes” who made the experience a great one. The night had an unexpected twist, though—on the way back, a flat tire slowed things down, and a loose brake caliper made for a bit more work than planned. But no worries, just another Hunting Adventure on the road!
These two nights were a great reminder of why we do what we do. The right company, solid Hunting Guides, and the thrill of Thermal Hunting always make for a memorable experience. Looking forward to seeing Mario and Harry back out Wild Hog Hunting again soon!

Late-Night Action:
A One-Night Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton
At Pig Problem, we see all kinds of Hog Hunts—some quick and easy, others that turn into an all-night pursuit. On a recent 1 Night Thermal Hog Hunt, Guide Clayton led a group of Hunters who were eager, ready, and, most importantly, willing to listen. That combination usually leads to success, and this Wild Hog Hunt was no exception.
The Night of Hunting started with two go-arounds. The first encounter was a Single Hog, a good warm-up for the group to get dialed in with their pew pews and Thermal. They executed perfectly, making a clean shot and getting their first Hog Down.
But the real excitement came later. At around 2 a.m., Clayton spotted a Sounder of Pigs moving through the fields. This was the moment the group had been waiting for. With precision and patience, they followed Clayton’s guidance, setting up for a well-coordinated shot. When the green light was given, chaos erupted as Multiple Hogs Dropped in the field.
Clayton had nothing but good things to say about this group. “Guys were super easy and listened to everything I said,” he noted. That attention to detail paid off, as they walked away with a successful night of Hog Control and an Unforgettable Hunting Experience.
Another night, another Pig Problem Solved. If you’re ready for a High-Energy Hunt/ Adrenaline-Pumping Hog Hunt, Pig Problem Inc is the place to be. Book your Hunt now and experience the thrill for yourself!

Two Nights with Guide Zev:
Long Stalks, Predator Control, and First-Time Hunters
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.”

2 Night Hog Hunt
Pig Problem
Never Give Up:
Two Nights of Hog Hunting with Guide Hank
At Pig Problem, persistence pays off. Hunting Wild Hogs at night is never predictable—some nights, the Pigs are everywhere, and others, they seem to disappear into thin air. But one thing is always true: if you keep at it, the opportunity will come.
Guide Hank recently led a Two-Night Thermal Hunt that tested patience, but in the end, determination won out.
Night 1:
Never Give Up
The night started slow. Field after field, the Thermal Scanners came up empty. At times, it looked like the night might end without a single shot fired. But if there’s one thing about Hog Hunting, it’s that things can change in an instant.
On the very last field of the night, a Wild Pig finally stepped out. The team moved into position, but just as they were setting up, a group of deer spooked and bolted. For a second, it looked like the opportunity might slip away—but luck was on their side. The deer ran off in the opposite direction, and the Pig stayed put just long enough for there to be success. One Hog, and what looked like a lost cause turned into a Successful Hunt.
Night 2:
Right Place, Right Time
The second night started off much like the first. The first field checked was empty, but instead of moving on immediately, the team decided to wait. Sometimes, patience is key.
Thermal Hog Hunting is unpredictable, but that’s what makes it so exciting. Every night brings a different challenge, and every Hog Hunt is a reminder that persistence pays off. Whether it’s chasing Wild Hogs across multiple fields or waiting them out in the right spot, the reward is always worth it.
