Wild Boars Are The Toughest Animals!!

Some Hog Hunts keep you humble — and this was one of them.

Guide Clayton led a two-night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia, and while the first night was quiet, night two brought some long-awaited action. Around 2 a.m., the team finally spotted a Big Boar with the wind perfectly in their favor. Everything lined up just right… until it didn’t.

It took several well-placed rounds before the hog took off for the trees without showing much reaction. Wild hogs are unbelievably tough animals — with thick skin, dense muscle, and layers of tough cartilage that can make even a clean hit look like nothing happened. It’s no wonder they’re one of the hardest mammals in North America to drop clean.

Their hides evolved to protect them from predators and, more importantly, from each other. Boars use their tusks — razor-sharp and dangerous — to fight for dominance, and that thick skin is their armor. It’s part of what makes Boar Hunting in Georgia so challenging and so impressive.

Even though this Boar disappeared into the trees, the Hog Hunt was far from a loss. The hunters were laid-back, great company, and full of stories — one of them even owns a tackle shop in Anchorage and happens to be best friends with Big Dan from Homer, Alaska. Small world moments like that make every hunt special.

That’s the thing about Hog Hunting — it’s unpredictable, real, and never guaranteed. But every night in the field brings new stories, new friendships, and a deeper appreciation for just how incredible these animals really are.

At Pig Problem, we live for these moments — the challenge, the chase, and the chance to experience the wild side of Georgia Boar Hunting.

Another exciting night of Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia with Pig Problem and Guide Hank (a.k.a. Luke)!

The night started like many of our Wild Hog Hunts do — cruising the backroads and scanning fields for heat signatures. After checking a few spots with nothing moving, the team finally pulled into a field and saw pigs scrambling at the far end. The wind was swirling, so the stalk had to be slow and careful.

They crept closer, staying just downwind until they got in range. Once the thermals lit up, the hunters got set and the chance happened — four hogs re-homed, with one more that managed to make it into the woods.

That’s the kind of night that keeps us hooked on Hog Hunting — every stalk is different, every chance counts, and every Boar Hunt tells a new story.

At Pig Problem, we specialize in Guided Night Hunts across South Georgia, chasing wild hogs that tear up farmland and crop fields. We don’t bait or sit in stands — we hunt, stalk, and go, giving you a true, hands-on Hunting Experience.

Whether you’re chasing your first pig or adding to your tally, Pig Problem delivers the thrill of Thermal Boar Hunting in Georgia — real guides, real pigs, and real fun.

The Ghost Pig (Halloween Story)

A Halloween Hog Hunt Story

There’s something different about the fields on Halloween night.
Even the wind moves quieter, like it knows something you don’t.

It started as a normal night — scopes charged, rifles zeroed, and the truck cutting through the South Georgia dark. The kind of stillness you only get in the middle of nowhere. But when we stopped at the first field, every hair on the back of my neck stood up. The sounder we’d been tracking was gone. Not scattered. Just… gone.

Through the thermal, the world was silent. No deer, no coyotes, not even a rabbit. Just a cold field and a heartbeat in my ears. I took one more slow scan — and that’s when I saw it.

A single hog. Massive. Standing dead center of the field.
No heat signature. No glow.
Just… black.

I blinked. Checked my scope. Looked again. Still there — a shape darker than the night itself, motionless, like it was watching.

When I looked away for half a second to tell my buddy, it vanished. No sound. No tracks. Just empty dirt and silence.

They say wild hogs are smart — smarter than most people think.
But every once in a while, there’s one that’s different.
One that shows up where it shouldn’t, moves without a sound, and disappears like smoke.

We still hunt that same field. And every Halloween, someone claims they see it again — the black hog with no heat signature, standing in the dark, waiting for the next light to find it.

If you’re brave enough, book your Hog Hunt.
Maybe this year, you’ll see it too.

Night two of this Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton brought a mix of challenge, excitement, and a good dose of laughter to finish things off.

The night started slow, with just a single pig spotted around 1 a.m. The crew tried to stalk in close, but the wind shifted and the pig bolted back into the trees — a reminder that in Hog Hunting, every detail matters.

A few hours later, around 3 a.m., the luck turned. The team came across a group of six pigs feeding in the field. The hunters quickly got into position and dropped two in the open field, while a few others were hit but managed to make it back into the trees before recovery. Still, a solid success and an exciting end to the night.

And to top it all off, the photo just above the van had everyone laughing — Clayton said it looks like Gandalf and Bilbo Baggins side by side, with the dad towering over his son.

That’s what makes Hog Hunting in Georgia so great — you never know what’s going to happen. Some nights test your patience, others surprise you with fast action, but every Wild Hog Hunt with Pig Problem brings new memories, new stories, and plenty of laughs along the way.

Hunting Wild Boars

Some nights out Hunting in Georgia turn quiet — and then suddenly everything happens at once.

Guide Clayton led a father-and-son duo on a Thermal Hog Hunt that started off with great stories and easy conversation. They covered field after field, scanning through the night with their Thermal, but the pigs weren’t showing themselves early on.

Then, around 2 a.m., everything changed. The group spotted a Big Single Boar about 150 yards out in the open. They got set up, took their shots, and dropped the pig clean. Just two seconds later, a Coyote came prancing out and stopped right in front of them — the son didn’t hesitate and dropped it with one perfect shot.

Two animals, one incredible moment. Both the hog and coyote dropped less than 20 feet apart, ending the night with an unforgettable story and plenty of laughs.

At Pig Problem, we love guiding hunts like this — real Thermal Hog Hunting where you never know what the night will bring. We don’t sit in stands or hunt over bait. We move, stalk, and work for every opportunity. That’s what makes it exciting and why hunters travel from all over the country to experience Georgia Hog Hunting with us.

Hunting Wild Hogs

Not every Hog Hunt ends with a pig on the ground — and that’s the truth about Hog Hunting in Georgia.

Guide Hank led a great group of hunters on a one-night Thermal Hog Hunt with Pig Problem, and while they didn’t spot a single pig that night, everyone still had a great time out in the fields. That’s the thing about Wild Hogs — they’re unpredictable. They might stick to a pattern for a few days, then completely change it overnight.

If we sat in stands or baited them, it might be different. But that’s not how we hunt. At Pig Problem, we stalk, spot, and aim — covering ground under the stars with Thermal to find pigs where they truly live. It’s a challenge, and that’s what makes it fun.

Hog Hunting isn’t a guarantee, no matter where you go or what you’re after — and that’s part of the game. What we can guarantee is that we’ll always do everything we can to make sure you have a great time, no matter how the night goes.

Because at the end of the day, Boar Hunting is one of the most exciting, unique, and adrenaline-filled hunts out there. We love what we do — and that’s why we do it.

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.

Night two of this two-night South Georgia Hog Hunt with Pig Problem was one for the books.

Guide Clayton and his Hunters were locked in from the start — moving with precision and patience that made it look like they’d done this a thousand times before. The result? Three Wild Hogs down under the South Georgia night sky.

They almost had a fourth, but that last pig managed to slip into chest-high grass and earned himself a bit of peace for the night. Still, the team couldn’t have asked for a better ending to their Guided Thermal Hog Hunt.

Clayton shared a cool insight after the Wild Hog Hunt: for the last two days, he’s been eating only meat, salt, and water — living like hunters did long ago. “I wanted to feel what it was like to be human before everything got easy,” he said. “And I feel amazing.”

That mindset sums up what Pig Problem is all about — reconnecting with the primal side of Hunting, using modern Thermal Technology and equipment to do what humans have done for centuries: hunt, adapt, and thrive. Just in a 20th century way.

If you’re ready to experience Guided Hog Hunts in Georgia, Pig Problem delivers the real thing — Thermal Hog Hunting, Wild Boar action, and stories you’ll remember for life.

Boar Hunting In Georgia

Night one of this two-night Georgia Hog Hunt with Pig Problem was a wild one — literally.

Guide Clayton and his hunters spotted a single hog out in the field around 11:30 p.m., kicking off a 45-minute thermal stalk that put their patience to the test. The setup wasn’t easy: deer were blowing and running all over the field, cars were driving by, and people were yelling out on the road searching for a lost dog. Someone even sat on their horn a dozen times just to make things interesting.

Even with all the distractions, the Wild Hog never spooked. He stayed right where he was, completely unaware of the commotion happening around him. Clayton and his hunters moved slow, stayed steady, and pulled off a clean stalk under pressure — the kind of Thermal Hog Hunt that shows why patience and persistence always pay off.

This was only night one of a 2-Night Hog Hunt, so the adventure isn’t over yet. Clayton will be back out tomorrow night with the same hunters, ready to cover more ground and hopefully find a bigger sounder of pigs.

If you’ve ever wanted to experience the thrill of Guided Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia, Pig Problem is the Outfitter for you. We specialize in Night Hunts, Thermal, and real action in the fields — chasing wild pigs that cause damage to farms across the region. Whether you’re after your first hog or your fiftieth, every Wild Hog Hunt is a new story.

Guided Hog Hunting

Night one came and went without a single Pig in sight. Sometimes that’s just how it goes — long hours, good company, and a reminder that success in Hog Hunting isn’t guaranteed.

But by night two, things finally turned around. Zev and his hunters located a sounder of about ten pigs over on Pryor Road. He got the group in close for the perfect setup, and when it was time to fire, they managed to drop one. Not the whole sounder, but enough to bring home some meat and a story to tell.

They later spotted more pigs over at Bazemoor, but the group couldn’t quite close the distance before the pigs slipped away into the night. Even so, everyone got to see what South Georgia Thermal Hunting is all about — long nights, fast decisions, and plenty of excitement once the pigs show up.

Guiding isn’t always easy, but Zev kept things moving and made sure everyone had a good time. Sometimes the pigs win, and that’s what keeps us all coming back for more. That’s the name of the game of Hunting.
