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.

Night 2 of this 2-Night Hog Hunt in Georgia tested every part of the process — from timing and weather to patience in the field.

Early in the night, Hogs were located and a stalk began to take shape, but unexpected wildlife movement disrupted the setup before it could fully come together. Shortly after, another opportunity developed, only to be affected by swirling wind, making it difficult to maintain a clean approach.

As the night went on, conditions continued to deteriorate. Thick fog rolled in, quickly becoming some of the heaviest fog encountered all season. Visibility dropped significantly, limiting both scanning distance and safe movement through the fields.

Despite continued effort and covering ground, hog activity completely shut down under the combination of fog, wind, and pressure, and no recoveries were made on Night 2.

While the second night didn’t produce the same results as Night 1, it was a true example of what Hog Hunting looks like. Weather, wind, and visibility can change everything — even in areas that were productive just hours before.

At Pig Problem, we Wild Hog Hunt honestly. Some nights are fast and exciting, others are slow and technical — and both are part of the experience.

Two nights.
Two very different outcomes.
One Georgia Hog Hunt.

Sometimes everything comes together at just the right time — and this 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Pig Problem was exactly that.

The night kicked off with an early sounder spotted moving across the field, leaving very little time to waste. Guide Hank quickly got the group moving, beginning a steady stalk as the hogs continued to shift away through the field.

Rather than rushing the setup, the team stayed patient and worked the terrain. The sounder eventually settled into a low spot near thick brush, creating the perfect opportunity. Once in position, the hunters were able to capitalize on the moment.

The result was a high-energy encounter with six hogs successfully recovered, making for an excellent night of Hog Hunting and a great haul of meat. Encounters like this are what Thermal Hog Hunting is all about — quick decisions, controlled movement, and making the most of the opportunity when it presents itself.

From early action to a strong finish, this Wild Hog Hunt was a great example of how effective Georgia Hog Hunting can be when everything lines up.

Another successful night in the books with Pig Problem and Guide Hank.

Hunting a Sounder of Wild Hogs

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Pig Problem and Guide Hank (Luke) was a perfect example of why persistence matters in Hog Hunting.

The night started with early promise when Hogs were spotted on the very first field. By the time the group geared up and moved into position, the Pigs had already slipped away — a common tease that experienced hunters know all too well.

As the night went on, fog rolled in, making scanning and travel more challenging. Several fields were checked through the early morning hours with no activity, testing patience and focus. But rather than calling it early, Hank kept pushing and stayed alert for one more opportunity.

That decision paid off.

While driving past another field near the road, Hank spotted a Large Sounder of Wild Hogs moving through the area. Acting quickly, he circled around, positioned the group behind the field, and led a quiet approach from the downwind side.

The stalk came together perfectly. The group slipped in behind the sounder and made the most of the opportunity, resulting in five hogs successfully recovered — a strong finish to a night that demanded patience and persistence.

Fog, long hours, and steady effort all led to a memorable ending. Another successful Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt in the books with Pig Problem Inc and Guide Hank (Luke).

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.

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.

Guided Thermal Hog Hunting

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.

There’s nothing like the rush of a Georgia Hog Hunt under the stars — and this crew showed up ready for it. With Guide Hank behind the wheel and the thermals fired up, the Wild Hog Hunt was on.

These guys came back eager and ready to make the most of their 1 Night Guided Thermal Hog Hunt. Their mission? Fill that cooler.

Not long into the night, Hank spotted a Sounder of Wild Hogs over 1,000 yards away in the second field. With the wind working against them, he made the call to pull out and circle around to a different access point — a smart move that set them up for success.

After gearing up and walking in from the opposite side, the team closed the gap and got eyes on the pigs. The stalk went smoothly, the guys called their shots, and within moments, four hogs were down. The result? A cooler packed full of meat and a Boar Hunt to remember.

Another successful night in the books with Pig Problem, where every Thermal Hunt brings the thrill of the chase, good company, and plenty of pork to go around.
