First time Hunting Ever!!! So glad we were able to be apart of this moment for Ryan and Kingston. Guide Noah Started the night out with a bit of heartbreak with stalking on a sounder only for it to walk in the woods. After checking fields near by and circling back its was slow. Finally They were stalking on a large sounder of 20+ hogs only for this single boar decided to pop out between them. So they took the single boar hoping the sounder would stay in place. This is real hunting, not a pen where people release them so you can get your rocks off. We are 100% real Thermal Night Hog Hunting in Americus, GA.
Georgia Hog Hunting - Pig Problem Inc.
The hogs are moving with all the peanuts and corn being planted. Sometimes it’s a waiting game with them moving in and out of tall corn. Night hunting significantly increased the odds of a sucessful hunt. Guide Noah was able to make a good pig pile for Jeff and Levi’s first night of Hog Hunting. This is some of the best times to Hunt in Georgia for feral hogs. Book your next hunt with us at Pig Problem Inc.
Update To Booking Policy
Effective Immediately – Updated Booking Policy
After careful consideration (and a few freezers deciding to pursue early retirement), we are no longer offering meat storage or freezing services.
Between delayed pickups after the hunt and the occasional freezer mutiny, we want to make absolutely sure you head home with the delicious trophies you worked hard to harvest — not a heartbreaking science experiment.
While we pride ourselves on providing an unforgettable hunting experience, we’d prefer the only thing spoiled on your trip be you… not the meat.
So please plan accordingly and be prepared to transport your harvest home after your hunt. Those delectable morsels deserve a proper victory lap straight to your cooler!
Thanks for understanding, and happy hunting!

Nighttime Hog Hunting
Guide Hank led his final two-Night Hog Hunt for Pig Problem — and he made the last night memorable.
Night 1: After a dark, slow start, the hunters stalked a group but the Wild Hogs slipped away before they could set up.
Night 2: A true Thermal Hog Hunt. The team tracked a Lone Wild Boar, wandering hog across the field, finally closing the distance and bringing it down after several shots. They continued searching for hours and, near the end of the night, located a small sounder approaching the van. The group took one and wounded a few others as they exited the field.
Overall, a successful Georgia Hog Hunt. We hope this group enjoyed their Wild Hog Hunting trip to South Georgia and are grateful they chose Pig Problem as their Hog Hunting Outfitter.
Guide Hank — congratulations on your next chapter. Have fun, keep living for Christ, and we wish you all the best.
Hog Hunting In Georgia
Night 2 of this two-night Wild Hog Hunt began with a long stalk that didn’t pan out. On one of the first fields we checked, pigs were present but our wind was wrong — the hogs caught the scent of the van and moved off quickly. Wind is the most crucial factor in Guided Hog Hunting: it can shift at any moment, and hogs have an exceptional sense of smell.
Later, they moved to another field and immediately found a group of six pigs, taking one in that encounter. At the next field they checked, they found more hogs and harvested four. After working several fields with no additional sign, they found a new field with a sounder. We made a long stalk and brought down three from that group.
That’s what we call a great night of Hog Hunting. Over the two nights the team took a total of 15 hogs — seven on night one and eight on night two. We’re grateful to have guided this father–son duo. Book your Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem — we love taking Families Hog Hunting.

Wild Hog Hunting In Georgia
Wild Hog Hunting in Georgia | Thermal Hog Hunts with Pig Problem Inc.
At Pig Problem Inc., we specialize in wild hog hunting in Georgia, offering authentic, fair-chase experiences in Americus, Georgia. We were grateful to host a great family who joined us for a thermal hog hunt—one of the most effective and exciting ways to hunt wild hogs at night.
Before heading into the field, we started at the range to review safety, hunting rules, and zeroing thermal equipment. From there, we moved into planted corn fields to begin tracking hog activity. During the night’s encounter, the group had an opportunity on four hogs and successfully harvested one.
Real Hog Hunting vs. Expectations
One thing we see often in the Georgia hog hunting industry is the bad omen of hunting. This particular group followed our guide with a freezer in the back of their truck—something we see all the time. Many hunters arrive with trailers full of coolers, generators, and equipment, expecting to harvest large numbers of hogs.
But wild hog hunting doesn’t work that way.
It’s like counting your chickens before they hatch or expecting guaranteed results—hog hunting is unpredictable. At Pig Problem Inc., we focus on fair chase hog hunting, where success depends on the hunter’s skill, patience, and conditions in the field.
What Makes a Successful Hog Hunt?
A successful thermal hog hunt in Georgia isn’t measured strictly by numbers. There are nights when:
We’ve butchered over 32 hogs—and the client still expected more
Fired over 1,000 rounds and harvested only 7
Taken a family out who harvested just one hog—and called it the best hunt of their lives
Every hunt is different. Weather, movement patterns, shooting ability, and timing all play a role. That’s why we believe the experience of the hunt is what truly matters.
Our Mission: Hog Control & Unforgettable Hunts
Our goal is twofold:
Help farmers with wild hog control and land management in Georgia
Provide hunters with a memorable, ethical hog hunting experience
The ability to hunt hogs at night with thermal optics and consistently create opportunities is something we take pride in. While we work hard to put hunters on hogs, we never guarantee numbers—only a real, exciting hunt.
If you’re looking for hog hunting in Americus, GA or anywhere in Southwest Georgia, Pig Problem Inc. is ready to guide you.
Thermal Hog Hunting
📋 Field Report: The High-Pressure Mission
Lead Guides: Hank & Jordan (Split Group)
Location: Albany Ga Farm Belt
Tech: Elite Thermal Surveillance
Conditions: Full Moon / High Visibility
Outcome: Multiple Engagements (No Recoveries)
In the world of Boar Hunting in Georgia, there is no such thing as a "guaranteed" harvest. This week, guides Hank and Jordan split a large group to cover maximum acreage during the peak of planting season. While the night was filled with movement and multiple "go-rounds," it served as a stark reminder that when you’re Hunting Wild Hogs in their own area, they always have the home-field advantage.
Tactical Challenges: The Bright Light Factor
Guide Jordan’s group covered extensive ground, scouting through the different fields before finally locating a group of three in a wide-open backyard.
The conditions were far from ideal. With an incredibly bright moon and no natural backdrop, the team had to execute a high-stakes stalk in a low spot to stay undetected. Despite getting within 150 yards—a prime distance for Thermal Hog Hunting—the team opted to engage from their position rather than closing the gap further. In the heat of the moment, the chances didn't find their mark. That’s the nature of the sport: under high-pressure conditions, the margin for error is razor-thin.
The "Iron-Hided" Boar: Hank’s Treeline Encounter
On the other side of the property, Guide Hank was managing his own set of challenges. His group had two distinct opportunities. The first was a timing/finding hogs in the thermal issue; a sow and piglets moved along a treeline, but the window of engagement closed before the hunters could lock on.
The second encounter was even more intense. Hank’s group located a single boar darting in and out of thick cover. After a rapid setup, the team took there chance, confirming multiple hits. However, wild hogs are legendary for their resilience. The boar managed to slip into the thickest brush imaginable. We take land management seriously, and while we are 100% certain it was down, the South Georgia timber claimed the recovery.
Why Experience is the Best Teacher
At Pig Problem, we don't sugarcoat the results. We put our 10 years of experience into every scout and every stalk. Our guides did their job—they found the pigs, managed the wind, and created the opportunities.
Night Hog Hunting is a skill that takes time to master. From managing "buck fever" to finding a target in the scope under pressure, every missed chance is a lesson for the next hunt. We hunt every night during planting season because we are dedicated to the grind, whether the coolers are full or the woods win the night.
Boar Hunting & Coyote Hunting
📋 Field Report: Night 2 of 2
Lead Guide: Hank
Location: High-Traffic Silage Pile
The Setup: Repeat Ambush & Nighttime Predator Stalk
Targets: Wild Boar & Coyote
Outcome: 1 Hog Secured & 1 Coyote Harvested
A 2-night hog hunt is all about persistence. If you find a "hot spot" on Night 1, you can bet the sounder will be back—and on Night 2 of this mission (that doesn’t happen every time), Guide Hank took the team right back to the silage pile to see if the buffet was still open…
The Repeat Strike: Thermal Hunting in the Silage
Sure enough, the thermal signatures were back in the same spot. The team used the same stealthy approach from the previous night, creeping toward the group as they fed on the silage.
Once the team had their lanes, they opened there chances. We confirmed one hog gotten on the spot, while a few others—feeling the pressure —managed to limp into the thick cover. In the world of Wild Boar Hunting, returning to a successful site is one of the best ways to ensure your guests stay "on the meat" for the duration of their Hunting Trip.
🐺 Nighttime Predator Hunting in Georgia
As the night progressed and the hog activity slowed down, the team pivoted to one of the most popular things to hunt in 2026: Coyote Hunting.
Why Predator Control Matters
Coyotes are the "ghosts of the woods," and they are one of the primary predators affecting local livestock and fawn populations in South Georgia. At Pig Problem, we utilize the best thermal gear to level the playing field against these high-speed targets.
During the second half of the night, Hank’s thermal picked up a lone coyote moving through the perimeter. The team executed a rapid-response stalk, closing the gap and successfully getting the predator. Adding Predator Hunting to your thermal hunting session adds a layer of intensity that most hunters never get to experience.
The Best Coyote Hunting in the United States
Whether you are here for the hogs or looking to test your skills against a wary predator, our guides are experts in Nighttime Predator Hunting. We understand the movement patterns of Georgia's coyotes and how to utilize high-end optics to secure a harvest in total darkness.
