Georgia Pig Pile
Don was doing some PRS matches last week after getting done with the GAP Grind and Last Qualifier in GA He decided do a little Hog Hunting. After a quick stop at Armageddon Gear in Buena Vista, we geared up and started the night finding a small Boar Hog at the edge of a corn field. We decided to do a predator stand and another Big Boar Walked out about 70 yards from us and made for an easy photo. We decided to hit a freshly turned peanut field and ended up retrieving 6 out a sounder with more making it to the woods. Wild Hog Hunting is exactly that Wild. There is no telling how many will come out each night, but we do our best to pile them up. Book A Hunt with us and see how high you can stack your pile.

Thermal Hog Hunting - Americus, Georgia
Started the night off chasing some wild hogs in an overgrown Pecan Orchard. Only 2 piglets were taken since the Mama Sow decided to keep moving, so we have to take any opportunity we can. After checking a few other fields, a large sounder was spotted and the team was able to drop 6 out of the sounder. We do all we can to pile up the hogs for our customers. Book a Hunt with us to see how many wild hogs you can pile up.
Hog Hunting - Georgia Wild Hog Hunts
The night started off well with a small sounder being spotted about 50 yards from where we first parked. With a quick set up none were harvested due to a hold over thinking the hogs were farther than what appeared, It is a common mistake for hunters to miss judge distance at night. The second field was almost the same scenario where a hog was in some overgrown brush at about 125 yards. The hunters connected and the hog ran probably 100 yards before expiring.
The second night was a bit slow with fields being checked over and over again. Finally 2 hogs were at the edge of the the field, so we geared up and started our stalk. The hogs spotted us and ran back into the woods due to misscommunication.. The guide will lead you and wants your hunt to be as successful as possible. Most people think Hunting Hogs will be easy but that is far from the truth. While we can have a high degree of success each night, every night is different. It is still important to remember we are hunting wild animals and not inside of a pen. Our Hogs are 100% wild and free in Georgia.

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.

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.

The "Drop-Shot" Encounter
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.
The Midnight Scout
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.
