From Deer Camp to Thermals

There’s nothing better than welcoming back one of our favorite repeat hunters — and David kicked off his last night in Georgia with a smooth transition from our Pig Problem deer hunt straight into a thermal hog hunt with Guide Clayton.

The action came early. Around 11 PM, Clay spotted a sounder of about 30 hogs, and the team moved into position. The thermals lit up with movement, and the hunters had a strong start, with two hogs recovered in the field and at least three more that made it into the treeline. When pigs hold tight to cover, they can be nearly impossible to locate afterward, but the energy from that first stalk set the tone for a great night.

After a quiet stretch, the crew stumbled onto a single hog around 2 AM. Singles are unpredictable, and this one was no exception. It held still for a moment, then made a hard run for the trees — a reminder that every stalk is different and every pig reacts in its own way. Even without recovering that one, it added to the night’s excitement.

And for the highlight that none of us expected:
While scanning the fields, David captured thermal footage of two bucks locked together, briefly stuck during a sparring match before finally separating and sprinting off. Footage like that is rare — it’s the kind of moment you only witness when you’re out in the fields after dark with thermal gear rolling.

All in all, it was a solid night of thermal hog hunting — early action, late-night surprises, and a returning hunter we’re always grateful to have in camp.

David, we appreciate you choosing Pig Problem again and again. Hunts like this are why we love what we do.

Thermals, Teamwork, and 14 Pigs in One Night

When everything clicks — teamwork, timing, and technology — Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia turns into something unforgettable.

Guide Clay kicked off a wild night that started with a massive sounder of about 20 pigs (plus plenty of little ones). I was there for this one, we had Daniel flying the drone and calling Clay over once we spotted the group out in the field. We geared up, planned our approach, and began a long, careful stalk.

Once we were in range, the thermal lit up the field. Within seconds, we had success with two pigs down and plenty of excitement to kick off the night. As we were taking photos, the Thermal Drone picked up more movement just 20 yards away, so we reset quickly and moved again. That second stalk led to ten more pigs recovered, making it an incredible double run — fast-paced, smooth teamwork, and some amazing footage to come.

After I left, Clay and the hunters continued the night with another stalk, bringing the total to 14 pigs spotted and 12 recovered before sunrise. A perfect example of how much ground and action a good thermal setup can cover in just one night.

Thermal Hog Hunting is the real deal — high-tech, high-energy, and totally unpredictable. Between the heat signatures, drones, and quick field decisions, no two Hog Hunts are ever the same.

That’s what makes Pig Problem special — we combine real field knowledge, advanced thermal gear, and guides who know how to adapt fast. Nights like this show why Georgia Hog Hunting is unlike anywhere else in the country.

Every Hog Hunt tells a story, and this one with Guide Hank was all about good company, patience, and perfect timing.

The night started like most South Georgia Hog Hunts — checking field after field under the cover of darkness with nothing to show for it early on. But around 2 a.m., things changed. That’s earlier than Hank’s recent average for pig sightings, and this time, it paid off.

The group spotted a Lone Boar wandering through a patch of corn, and the stalk was on. Moving quietly through the stalks, they closed the distance and made it happen — a clean, successful shot and a solid Boar on the ground. Two hunters, one pig, and plenty of good laughs to end the night.

This crew also wanted to keep the memory alive with a European mount boar’s skull — a great way to showcase the trophy and remember the Boar Hunt forever. At Pig Problem, we offer professional European mounts with nationwide shipping, so no matter where you’re from, your mount can be delivered straight to your door safely and securely.

From start to finish, this was another great night of Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia. Whether you’re chasing a single boar or a sounder of ten, Pig Problem offers the full experience — Guided Night Hunts, thermal, and memories that last a lifetime.

Some Wild Hog Hunts come easy — and some make you work for it. Last night’s South Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Hank was the kind that tested patience and skill, but ended in a solid win.

The night started with a single Wild Hog spotted across a massive ditch in the first field. With no clean shot, the crew circled around, only to find the hog had slipped out of sight. A little later, Hank spotted two more pigs feeding near the road. He eased past them to avoid spooking the group, looped back around, and pulled into the field — but once again, the hogs had vanished.

That’s when persistence kicked in. The team returned to the first field and finally caught sight of a group of pigs mixed in with a few deer. As the deer bolted, it almost set the pigs off, but Hank moved fast, found an angle, and lined up the shots. In a tense few seconds, both hunters connected, dropping two hogs before the sounder scattered. That’s what Hog Hunting is all about!

It was a long night, but a successful one — and a reminder that the Best Hunts are earned through patience, teamwork, and grit.

Summer Hunting In Georgia

Guide Kaleb recently led an unforgettable two-night Thermal Hog Hunt filled with action, laughs, and surprises.

Night 1 started slow, but things quickly picked up. The group spotted a Group of Six Pigs that never paused long enough for a clean setup. Not long after, a Massive Bobcat wandered through the field—followed by a surprise visit from a curious Coyote. The team made a long, patient stalk and took a chance at over 200 yards. As the night wound down, the skies lit up with what Kaleb described as the biggest comet he’s ever seen. Wild stories and laughter wrapped up the night.

Night 2 brought results. Kaleb called this pair of Hunters some of the best he’s guided—nonstop jokes and good energy. After checking a few empty fields, they moved to a large peanut field where Kaleb, spotting from above, saw a Lone Pig—then, moments later, a whole Sounder in the distance. The team opted to go for the group and made a stalk of over 1,000 yards. Their patience paid off, landing two Wild Hogs and a third hit that got away. After plenty of photos and laughs, they packed out nearly all the meat themselves. The rest of the night was quiet, aside from some deer and coyotes chasing mice.

This Wild Hog Hunt was full of everything that makes Hog Hunting what it is—strategy, surprises, and great company. And according to the guys, they’ll definitely be back.

Night 2 Recap

Night two of the Hog Hunt with Guide Kaleb brought smoother action and a bit of early excitement.

After heading into the second Farm Field of the night, the team quickly spotted a Sounder moving through the area. With conditions just right, the group had a clean setup and made the most of the opportunity. Two Wild Hogs were successfully recovered and to new homes, with signs that a few others had moved off after the initial engagement.

The rest of the night settled down, with the only movement coming from curious deer crossing through the fields. Even with things going quiet after that first encounter, it was a solid night of Thermal Hog Hunting and a good reminder that anything can happen out here—sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

Stay tuned for more updates from the field as Kaleb and the crew continue Tracking Hogs through the South Georgia Farmland under the cover of night.

Night 2:

Patience Pays Off

Night 2 of Thermal Hog Hunting brought a bit of a challenge. Luke and Clay split up to cover more Hunting Ground, but overall movement was slow thanks to a storm that had just rolled through. Still, Hank managed to spot some Pigs out in a field and gave Clay a call to bring his group over to my location.

We geared up and set out on a stalk toward the last place I’d seen the Wild Pigs, but when we got there, they were gone. Hank climbed up on a pivot for a better vantage point and finally spotted them again—this time tucked deep into some tall grass. It was too thick for a chance, so they decided to wait it out.

Over an hour passed with no clear opportunity, but patience paid off. Eventually, the Hogs moved out of the grass just enough to give us our window. We took our chance and rehomed three Wild Hogs before the night was over. Farmland protetion completed.

It wasn’t an easy Hog Hunt, but it was a rewarding one. Sometimes, the key is simply staying ready and waiting for that perfect moment.

Helping Farmers During Planting Season:

A Night in the Field with Guide Clayton

Planting Season is one of the most important times of year for Farmers in South Georgia—and it’s also one of the most vulnerable times for crops. That’s where Pig Problem Inc steps in, and recently, two Hog Hunters from Atlanta, Ga made the trip south to do their part.

Led by Peanut Protector Guide Capt Clayton, the group set out under the stars with one goal in mind: to help local farmers protect their fields. Clayton described the pair as laid-back, respectful, and enjoyable company.

The night started strong as the team located a small Group of Hogs and made quick work of the opportunity, successfully reducing the number causing damage. A few slipped into the tree line, but the group stayed sharp and kept moving.

Later in the night, they encountered another small Sounder and were able to follow up with more success, again preventing further Crop Destruction. With clear skies and calm conditions, Clayton called it one of the easier nights he’s had in a while.

The teamwork, good attitudes, and steady effort made for an efficient and rewarding experience—not just for the Hunters, but for the Local Farms relying on support during critical planting windows.

Birthday Memories & Family Traditions:

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.

Two Nights of Hogs, Coyotes, and Good Times

A Hunt to Remember

Guide Hank led the charge on a 2 Night Hog Hunt packed with action, laughs, and a few surprises. From spotting a massive group of pigs just out of reach to chasing one determined hog over a hill, this trip had all the makings of a classic Pig Problem Adventure.

Night One:

Off to a Strong Start

The Hog Hunt kicked off with success in the very first field. We got into motion on a Sounder and walked away with three pigs in new homes. After gathering the everything, we continued the search—covering ground and scanning fields through thermal equipment.

At one point, we spotted a huge group of hogs, but they were just beyond our boundary. Still, watching them move through the fields was a thrill in itself. As the night wound down, we managed to add one more unexpected bonus to the list—a Coyote spotted and tracked before heading back in for the night.

Night Two:

One Hog, One Hill, and a Lot of Laughs

The second night brought a change of pace. As Hank put it, “What’s better than beer and hot glass?” (he is talking about Americus Ga Beer Fest) While there may be a few contenders, it’s hard to top a good night under the stars Thermal Hunting.

We ended up working for a Single Pig that didn’t get re-homed easy. It made a break for it over a hill, and we followed with a mix of anticipation and excitement, not knowing what we’d find. Sure enough, the effort paid off—we found our prize and got some great photos to wrap up the night. Very thankful to relocate this Piggy.

Another Successful Adventure

This Wild Hog Hunt had everything: quick action, good people, great laughs, and the kind of moments that stick with you long after the night ends. Whether you’re Hunting Pigs or just soaking in the full experience, a Hunt with Pig Problem always delivers.
