Some nights out here in South Georgia test your patience, your grit, and your faith all at once. This was one of those nights. Guide Hank and his hunter, Ryan, were covering field after field with no pigs in sight. The clock crept toward 4 a.m.—prime time for calling it quits—but Hank wasn’t ready to give up.

As they rolled up on the last two fields, Hank said a quick prayer, asking the Lord to bring out some pigs before the night was over so Ryan could head home with some meat and a story worth telling. “We both said amen and kept on moving,” Hank said.

The first field was empty. The second didn’t look much better. Hank stopped on a high spot and scanned the area—nothing, not even a deer. Disappointed, he decided to wait it out a little longer, giving it until the last possible minute before packing up. When he powered the optic back on for one final scan, the field had completely changed. “It was littered with pigs,” he said with a laugh.

Hank grabbed Ryan and set him up for the shot. When it was over, Ryan had taken down three pigs and filled the cooler with a good haul of meat.

It was a perfect ending to a long night—and a reminder that sometimes, all you can do is Hog Hunt on a prayer.

This two-night Georgia Hog Hunt was a great example of how Pig Problem can accommodate large groups hunts. With four guides and vans available, Pig Problem can take up to 20 hunters in a single night, making it perfect for Big Family Hunts, Corporate Hunt, or groups of friends who want to experience the excitement of Thermal Hog Hunting together.

For this hunt, two vans went out—one led by Guide Clayton and the other by Guide Hank—each with a group of five hunters experiencing their first Thermal Night Hunt.

Night 1
Clayton’s group covered multiple fields throughout the night. Activity was light, but patience paid off. In the final field of the night, the team spotted a lone hog and made a clean stalk to drop it. It was a quiet but rewarding start for the group’s first night.

Meanwhile, Hank’s crew had a lively night with plenty of wildlife movement. They sat at numerous fields, and while no pigs turned up, they did manage to get a coyote while scanning for hogs. The hunters were easygoing and appreciative, making it an enjoyable night in the fields.

Night 2
Both guides headed back out with the same hunters for round two. Clayton’s night mirrored the first—slow activity, but another successful stalk. His group connected on a single hog, and everyone got in on the action, making it a great team effort. They also saw another hog later in the night, but it slipped away after being spooked by the van.

Hank’s group kept their spirits high as they checked several fields throughout the night. Their persistence paid off when they finally found pigs near a cornfield. After a quiet stalk, the crew knocked one down, adding some meat to the cooler and smiles all around.

The Final Count:
Across both groups, the hunters ended their two-night adventure with four hogs and one coyote—and plenty of stories to take home.

Every Large Group Hunt brings its own excitement, teamwork, and challenge. Whether it’s family, friends, or a corporate crew, Pig Problem’s Guided Hog Hunts in Georgia are a unique way to share an unforgettable night under the stars.

If you’re planning a big group or Corporate Hunting Trip, Pig Problem can accommodate up to 20 hunters in one night with multiple guides and vans ready to roll. Book your Boar Hunt in South Georgia today and experience the thrill of the chase with the people you want to share it with.

Bachelor Party Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia

Photo: Best Hog Hunting In Georgia @PigProblem

When most people think of a bachelor party, they picture Las Vegas or the beach. But these young guys had a different idea: they wanted a real adventure and came down to Americus, Georgia for a Guided Hog Hunt with Pig Problem.

The night started off quiet, with no hogs in sight for hours. But just before sunrise, around 5 a.m., guide Clayton spotted a Sounder of Hogs across the field. The group made a careful stalk through cut corn — a tricky and noisy terrain that can make it tough to stay undetected. Despite the challenge, they managed to close the distance and set up for a shot.

The hard work paid off. The hunters were able to Protect Local Farmland from Destructive Wild Hogs while making Unforgettable Bachelor Party Hunting memories. Nights like this are exactly why so many groups are choosing Georgia Hog Hunting Trips over traditional bachelor party destinations.

NIGHT 2

Night two of this 2-Night Hog Hunt was one for the books. After taking his first hog on the opening night, the birthday hunter added even more memories to his 21st celebration.

The evening started off slow, with deer moving through the fields. Then, an armadillo made its way across the field, giving the hunter the chance to check another animal off his list. Not long after, a coyote appeared within 100 yards, and with a quick setup, that one was added as well.

But the focus of the night was still on finding hogs. Around 4 a.m., Guide Kaleb spotted a sounder of pigs over a mile away, confirmed on onX. The team adjusted quickly, moving out and around to get into position on the field. The stalk paid off—one hog went down in the open field, while another disappeared into thick cover and couldn’t be recovered.

By the end of the night, the hunters were calling it the “Georgia trifecta”—a Wild Boar, an armadillo, and a coyote all on the same hunt. It was the perfect finish to this Guided Hog Hunt in South Georgia, filled with late-night action, unique encounters, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Night 2

The second night of this 2 Night Hog Hunt with Pig Problem brought plenty of excitement. Early in the evening, the crew encountered a single hog and got the night started on a high note. Not long after, three more hogs were spotted in the distance, leading to a long stalk across the field. Although those slipped away, the action wasn’t over yet.

Later in the night, a sounder appeared but was spooked by deer before the hunters could move into position. Still, patience and persistence paid off. Around 3 a.m., Guide Kaleb returned to the same field with the group and, just as expected, the hogs were back. After a careful approach, the hunters successfully closed out the night with three more hogs, including a Large Boar.

When the dust settled, the group wrapped up the Boar Hunt with five hogs total over two nights of Thermal Hog Hunting in Americus, Georgia. It was the perfect reminder that success in the field comes down to timing, patience, and determination.

Pig Problem is proud to provide Guided Hog Hunts in Georgia that create not only results but also lasting memories.

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.

One Night with Guide Hank:

A Successful Thermal Hog Hunt

At Pig Problem Inc, we’re always excited to help our guests experience the thrill of Thermal Hog Hunting — and last night was no exception. Guided by Hank, our group had a fantastic evening out in the Farm Fields of South Georgia.

The action started early. Right on the first field of the night, we located a Sounder of Wild Hogs. With a little maneuvering around a nearby irrigation pivot, the group was able to get into a great position. Thanks to some careful planning and teamwork, we had a strong encounter, making solid connections and having immediate success.

While the rest of the night was quieter, the early opportunities made it a memorable Hog Hunt. Hank said it best:

“Pigs weren’t a problem tonight. We got on them early and made it a good one.”

We’re proud of how the evening unfolded — it’s always about being in the right place, reading the Planted Field, and making the most of each opportunity. Every Wild Hog Hunt is different, but with a little patience and the right strategy, it always leads to a rewarding Hunting Experience.

Thank you to everyone who came out with us! If you’re ready for your own night of Thermal Hunting adventure, book your Hunting Trip with Pig Problem today — and come see why South Georgia is one of the best places for wild hog hunting.

Two Nights in the Field with Max and Caleb

April Hunt Recap from Pig Problem

This past week, Guide Capt Max and our newest team member, Caleb, headed out for a Two-Night Hog Hunt with a great Group of Hunters. Caleb is currently training under Max’s wing, and this Hunting Trip was a perfect opportunity to gain some solid experience in the field. Here’s how it went down.

Night 1:

Weather Delays, But Worth the Wait

Photo: Hog Hunting @PigProblem

The first night started off slow. The usual signs of activity just weren’t there early on, and before long, the skies opened up with rain and thunder rolling through the area. It looked like we might have to pack it in, but after a bit of patience, the storm passed—and so did our luck.

Not long after the skies cleared, movement picked up. A Single Hog made its way into the Farm Field, and our Hunters were ready. Let’s just say they made the most of the opportunity. That one moment turned the whole night around.

Night 2:

Slow Action, Great Company

Night two was quieter. Wild Hog movement was minimal with only a few coyotes and the occasional deer sighting. Sometimes the Pigs just don’t want to play the game, but that’s part of what makes each Hog Hunt unique.

What the night lacked in action, it made up for in laughs and good company. These Hog Hunters were a great group—stories were shared, jokes were flying, and memories were made. That’s what it’s all about.

Caleb’s doing an awesome job getting up to speed under Max’s guidance, and we’re excited for the future as he becomes part of the regular guide team.

Until next time—stay ready, stay sharp, and we’ll see you in the fields for Thermal Hog Hunting.

Two Nights, Two Different Hunts

A Wild Chase with Pig Problem

No two nights of Hog Hunting are ever the same, and this Hunting Trip was proof of that. Guide Hank led a 2-Night Hog Hunt that started as a grind but ended with a Pile of Pigs and plenty of fresh pork to take home.

Night One:

The Long Chase and a Foggy Finish

The Pigs were coming out late, but that didn’t mean we were going to give up on them. After a long 1,000-yard walk, we set up on a Sounder of 20 Pigs, got some shots off, and dropped two.

The rest of the night turned into a wild chase—driving from field to field like madmen, scanning through Thermal Equipment, and covering as much ground as possible to find more Hogs. By the time we were walking back to the van, the sun was up, and a thick morning fog had settled over the field, making for a unique and eerie photo to mark the end of the Wild Hog Hunt.

Night Two:

A Complete Turnaround

Photo: What A Night @PigProblem

What a difference a night makes. After spending most of the first night waiting and chasing, the second night was all action. The first field we hit was full of Wild Pigs, and the Hunters wasted no time. They took down 6 Hogs in a fast-paced stalk, making every shot count.

The next couple of hours were all about putting in the work—stalking, shooting, dragging, and butchering. Since the group needed to head home, we wrapped things up with a great haul of meat and got them on the road at a decent time.

The Reality of Hog Hunting:

A Night with Capt Max

Photo: Coyote Down @PigProblem

At Pig Problem Inc, every Thermal Hunt is different—sometimes it’s fast action, sometimes it’s a grind, and sometimes, it’s a mix of both. On this 1 Night Thermal Hunt, Guide Capt Max and his Hunters got a little bit of everything: a first-time predator, close encounters with Wild Hogs, and a reminder that all of Hunting is never a guarantee.

The night started strong when Harry dropped his First Coyote. It was a textbook setup—Calling a Coyote in to about 50-60 yards before sealing the deal. A great way to kick things off.

Next up: Wild Pigs. They got on a Sounder early, but despite solid effort, nothing hit the ground. Then came two more opportunities—one pair and one single. But when the wind shifted, the pair caught their scent and vanished. The single? Pulled a Houdini and disappeared into the night.

“Hunting is 100% Present Opportunity,” Capt Max said. “Skill, luck, time all have some play. But mainly, going outside is the biggest part.” That’s the truth of it—showing up, putting in the time, and being ready when the moment comes.

And speaking of putting in the time—Max has spent the past four nights sleeping in the van, getting home at 8-9 a.m. This isn’t just a job; it’s a lifestyle. “Everyone wants to be a Hog Hunter for the glory,” he joked. But the reality? It’s long nights, hard-earned take downs, and doing whatever it takes to Solve The Pig Problem.
