Night one of this 2-Night Pig Hunt in Americus, Georgia got off to a strong start with good conditions and steady movement.

Early in the night, a single hog was located in tall cut corn near a pivot. With favorable wind, the group was able to make a clean stalk and set up efficiently, resulting in a successful recovery.

After moving on to the next field, a sounder was briefly located but moved off before a setup could be completed. Continued scanning while returning to the vehicle revealed another single hog on the opposite side of the field, keeping the group active and on their feet throughout the night.

Between multiple stalks and plenty of walking, night one delivered solid effort and positive results — a great way to start the Thermal Hog Hunt and build momentum heading into night two.

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.

This 1-Night Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia delivered a solid result through patience and careful decision-making.

Early in the evening, a sounder was detected moving through wooded cover, positioned just far enough away to limit opportunities. While property boundaries and angles were favorable, extremely quiet conditions made movement risky, and discretion was the best option at the time.

Later in the night, continued scanning led to the discovery of a single hog actively feeding along the edge of the field. With improved positioning and clear angles, a controlled setup was made, resulting in a successful recovery.

Though brief, this Wild Hog Hunt highlighted how Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia often comes down to timing, awareness, and adapting to conditions. Even on a single-night hunt, focused effort can lead to Effective Hog Control and meaningful results.

Night one of this two-night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia started like many do — steady searching and scanning fields for movement.

Before long, thermal detection picked up a sounder positioned near the center of a field. To avoid detection, the approach was made from the treeline, which temporarily caused loss of visual contact. Based on experience and terrain layout, attention shifted to a nearby low area that wasn’t visible until closing the distance.

That decision paid off.

The sounder was located exactly where expected, allowing for a controlled setup and a highly productive outcome. By the end of the night, six hogs were successfully recovered, making for a strong and efficient first night of Hog Control.

Strategic movement, terrain awareness, and patience were key factors in the success of night one.

Night 2 – Blog Post:

Night 2 of this 2-Night Large Group Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem reinforced one of the most important lessons in hunting: patience wins.

Both guides, Hank and Clay, covered ground early in the night, checking multiple fields and staying alert for returning activity. Conditions remained challenging, with bright moonlight and increased nighttime traffic, making Wild Hogs extra cautious and quick to react.

Hank focused on a field that showed promise the night before. Rather than rushing the opportunity, he made the strategic decision to wait the hogs out, anticipating they would return if undisturbed. Sure enough, after nearly an hour, the hogs reappeared — but before the stalk could fully develop, passing headlights caused the pigs to lift their heads and notice movement in the open field. They slipped away once again.

Instead of pushing the issue, Hank stayed patient.

Nearly an hour and a half later, the hogs returned for a second time — offering a rare redemption opportunity. This time, everything came together. The setup was clean, the timing was right, and two hogs were successfully recovered, proving that patience and restraint can make all the difference in Thermal Hog Hunting.

On Clay’s side of the split Hog Hunt, opportunities presented themselves as well. Clay located multiple sounders and put the hunters in position for solid opportunities. Despite good setups, the hogs made it into cover before recoveries could be made — a tough outcome, but one that every experienced hunter understands is part of real hunting.

Throughout both nights, the group stayed positive and engaged, understanding that success isn’t guaranteed, especially under bright moonlight and shifting conditions.

Night 2 closed the Wild Hog Hunt on a strong note with two hog recoveries, lessons learned, and a true demonstration of what Georgia Hog Hunting is really about — adapting to conditions, staying patient, and capitalizing when the moment finally arrives.

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Pig Problem delivered a little bit of everything — early opportunities, tough conditions, and a strong finish.

The night started off quickly when Guide Zev located hogs early on, creating the first opportunity of the Hog Hunt. A setup came together and one hog was successfully recovered, while the rest of the group slipped away into cover.

As the night went on, fog settled in across the fields, limiting visibility and making travel more challenging. Nights like this test patience and focus, especially when scanning large areas under changing conditions.

Late in the Wild Hog Hunt, persistence paid off. After moving to another area, the group encountered a Large Sounder of roughly 30 hogs right in front of them. The hogs initially spooked and moved across the field, but Zev stayed on them, repositioned, and followed their movement.

That decision led to another opportunity on the far side of the field, where the hunters were able to capitalize and recover two additional Wild Hogs — a strong finish to the night.

Three hogs recovered, heavy fog navigated, and multiple sounder encounters made this a solid and memorable One-Night Hog Hunt with Pig Problem. Nights like this are a great reminder of why Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is never predictable — and why staying persistent matters.

Night 2:

Night 2 of this 2-Night Hog Hunt with Pig Problem was the complete opposite of Night 1 — fast-moving, unpredictable, and packed with action from start to finish.

The night opened with a Large Sounder spotted in the corner of a field, prompting a long, patient stalk. The group closed to roughly 300 yards, but the hogs slowly worked their way into the treeline before a safe opportunity presented itself. With no wind or pressure pushing them out, Jordan made the smart call to back off and keep searching.

Later in the night, multiple singles appeared across different areas, but several promising stalks were disrupted by outside movement — including deer unintentionally pushing hogs into cover. That’s Hunting, and every experienced hunter knows those moments are part of the process.

The night truly came alive toward the end.

While scanning a new area, Jordan spotted a single hog, and the setup came together cleanly. The hog was taken, and as the group waited to see if it would move again, the field suddenly erupted with activity.

A sounder began pouring out of the treeline, running directly toward the downed hog. What followed was one of the most chaotic and memorable moments of the entire Hog Hunt. Groups of Hogs — wave after wave — crossed the field, creating multiple opportunities in rapid succession.

After the first wave moved through, another group emerged moments later, allowing the hunters to capitalize once again. In total, more than 30 hogs moved through the field during that final stretch of the night — an incredible sight even for seasoned hunters.

With multiple hogs recovered, photos taken, and the hogs processed, the group wrapped up Night 2 and headed in after an unforgettable finish.

Two nights.
Completely different experiences.
And a perfect example of why Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is never predictable.

Another successful Wild Hog Hunt in the books with Pig Problem and Guide Jordan.

Night 1: Wild Hog Hunting

Night 1 – Blog Post:

Night 1 of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem and Guide Jordan was a perfect example of how patience, persistence, and professionalism come together in real hunting situations.

The night began with several quiet fields, but eventually Jordan picked up a faint thermal signature near a thick brush line. After carefully watching it, the signature revealed itself as a hog slowly working its way toward the open field. The hunters were briefed, and the group moved in quietly, hugging the treeline before cutting into the field.

The first setup came together slowly and deliberately. As the group closed distance and waited for a clear shot opportunity, unexpected outside activity interrupted the stalk and pushed the hog back into cover. After handling the situation professionally and safely, Jordan made the call to move on — a tough decision after a long, patient stalk, but the right one.

Later in the night, persistence paid off.

While scanning another field, Jordan spotted a single hog mixed in with deer activity at the back of the field. The wind was favorable, and the group executed a textbook stalk — moving along the treeline, closing distance, and setting up carefully. After repositioning for a better angle, the hunters were able to connect on the hog.

The hog made it a short distance into the treeline before being located in a safe, accessible area. The recovery went smoothly, and the group wrapped up the moment with photos before processing the hog.

The Hog Hunt closed with one more field check before heading in for the night. Beyond the recovery, what truly stood out were the hunters themselves — positive, patient, and fully engaged throughout every stalk. Their attitude and teamwork made the night especially enjoyable and set the tone for Night 2.

A strong, hard-earned Night 1 in the books with Pig Problem and Guide Jordan — proof that persistence and the right mindset always matter in the field.

Night 2 brought plenty of Hog Activity — but as every experienced hunter knows, seeing Wild Pigs doesn’t always mean easy opportunities.

Darrell returned once again, this time bringing along Izzy, one of his top employees from the electrical field. From the start, she proved exactly why Darrell holds her in such high regard — tough, focused, and fully committed to the Hog Hunt. Long walks, cold conditions, and tough stalks never slowed her down.

Throughout the night, the group encountered multiple hogs across several fields, but the conditions made clean setups difficult. Shifting wind, unexpected deer movement, and hogs slipping into the trees repeatedly disrupted stalks that were otherwise coming together perfectly.

That’s the reality of Thermal Hog Hunting — especially on busy nights when animals are constantly on the move.

Persistence eventually paid off. Late in the night, the team finally got a stalk to come together cleanly. Everything connected on three hogs, and one was successfully recovered in the field. While the others made it into cover, the recovery capped off a night full of effort and determination.

Even without multiple recoveries, this Wild Hog Hunt showcased exactly what Pig Problem is about:
Hog Hunting, conditions, and hunters who understand that success is earned — not guaranteed.

Another busy, hard-fought night in the books with Pig Problem, Guide Clay, and a group that brought the right mindset to the field.

Wild Hog Hunting In Georgia

1-Night Hog Hunts can unfold fast — and this one with Guide Jordan delivered action, challenges, and nonstop learning from start to finish.

After checking several fields early with no activity, Jordan made a call to try new ground. That decision paid off immediately. As soon as the group arrived, they spotted a Sounder of 10+ Wild Hogs feeding on the far side of the field.

The stalk came together perfectly.
The wind was steady, movement was quiet, and the hogs positioned themselves in a low area that naturally funneled them closer. When the first encounter connected, something rare happened — instead of running away, the sounder pushed toward the hunters, creating fast, close-range opportunities.

During the chaos, one hunter experienced a temporary equipment malfunction. Jordan reacted instantly, stepped in, and worked through the issue while the other hunter stayed focused and kept the pressure on the sounder. Clear communication and teamwork paid off, resulting in two hogs recovered from that encounter.

As the team moved in to gather the hogs, another pig unexpectedly broke from the treeline nearby. Jordan quickly set the hunters back up for a follow-up opportunity, but that hog slipped away into cover.

After photos and processing, the Wild Hog Hunt continued. Later in the night, the group encountered a single hog, but a sudden interruption caused it to vanish before a setup could come together — another reminder of how unpredictable Wild Hog Hunting can be.

The final opportunity of the night came when Jordan spotted two more hogs in a different area. The stalk was smooth, the wind was right, and the hunters closed the distance to under 100 yards. Shots were taken, but both hogs made it into thick cover and couldn’t be recovered safely.

Even without additional recoveries, the night showcased exactly what Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is all about:
• adapting on the fly
• managing fast-moving sounders
• handling equipment issues calmly
• making smart, safe decisions in the field

Jordan led with confidence, communication, and patience — and the hunters stayed engaged and positive through every encounter.

Two hogs recovered, multiple stalks executed, and a full night of action under the stars — a solid one-night Hog Hunting Trip with Pig Problem.
