Last night, Guide Capt Ben led a 1 Night Hog Hunt for the Hog SWAT team that was filled with unexpected twists and turns. As they set out into the rugged terrain, the team found themselves driving around in circles, trying to track down the elusive wild hogs. The frustration was mounting as they seemed to be going in circles and coming up empty-handed.

But just when it seemed like luck was not on their side, the Pig Gods must have taken pity on them. Suddenly, a Group of Pigs popped out from the bushes, catching the team by surprise. With adrenaline pumping, they quickly got into position and took their shots. Despite the initial struggles, the team managed to drop 4 out of the 10 Hogs they shot at, a decent success rate for the night.

One of them must have been related to Hogzilla because she was huge," he wrote. After initially having no luck in the first couple of fields, the group finally got on a Sounder and successfully took down 2 Sows, resulting in a nice haul of meat. Guide Hank expressed his satisfaction with the great success of the Hunt and the thrill of the experience with the group at Hog SWAT.

Guide Hank embarked on a 1 Night Hog Hunt with this group at Hog SWAT . Early in the evening, they spotted a Pig, skittish and alert, which led them on a lengthy chase across the field. Despite their efforts to close in for a shot, the Elusive Pig managed to escape, sparing its life. The night continued with the group diligently searching various fields, but luck wasn't on their side until around 4 AM when they entered a field and successfully took a shot, resulting in One Hog Down. The night was long and arduous, yet it culminated in another commendable triumph.

Guide Hank took the group on a Hog Hunt at Hog SWAT. The adventure began with hours spent traversing a large field, with only one Pig spotted which quickly evaded them during the stalk. Disappointed but undeterred, they moved towards another field closer to Americus, Ga, where a Group of Pigs was spotted spread out. With a steady approach, the Hunters were able to take down 2 Pigs from a distance of 80 yards, achieving great success in the Hunt. A thrilling experience in the heart of Georgia's Wilderness.

Hank, an experienced guide at Hog SWAT, led a Wild Hog Hunt in which six Hogs were successfully taken down. The evening began with the group spotting their first Hog around 10pm, swiftly dispatching it. Later on, they stalked and successfully eliminated another single Pig.

The highlight of the night came when a group of around 10 Pigs emerged from the trees as Guide Hank began to scout the area. The Hunters quickly moved in on the group, managing to take out four of them before the rest of the Wild Pigs fled into the night.

Overall, it was a highly Successful Hunt, with a total of 6 Wild Hogs taken down. Hank's expertise and leadership played a crucial role in the success of the night's hunt.

During a Hog Hunt led by Guide Capt Ben, a group of Hunters embarked on a new adventure of Thermal Hunting in South Georgia with Hog SWAT. Reflecting on the Hunt, Guide Capt Ben shared, "We had to grind for these Pigs."

Their first Stalk was interrupted by some Deer, startling the Hogs. The second Pig they encountered dashed across the field, proving to be a challenge. However, at 4:50, the group finally had a successful run. They embarked on a 1200-yard Stalk through waist-high Winter Wheat, ultimately taking a shot on four and dropping two Wild Hogs.

It was a night of perseverance and determination for Guide Capt Ben and his team, showcasing their skills in navigating the challenges of Hunting in South Georgia. The memorable experience will surely be cherished by the Hunters, who embraced the Thrill of the Hunt under Guide Capt Ben's guidance.

Guide Hank didn't see a single Pig until 4am. Due to the full moon, when he spotted a Lone Boar sitting in a field, he didn't want to chance it running away upon noticing them. Crouching down and Army Crawling within 60 yards of the Hog, the Hunters were able to drop it with 2 bullets. The Boar had some very nice Boar Tusks, making it another Successful Hunt for Guide Hank.

Words From Guide Capt Ben:

New Jersey’s finest. These fellas dropped the hammer on the Hogs tonight. Our first field appeared desolate at first. As we made our way out of the field however, 9 Pigs charged out of the woods and almost directly at the Hog Hunting Van. With the full moon, they easily saw the van. We kept a cool head and didn’t move a muscle, didn’t utter but a few whispers. Two of the Wild Hogs were very curious about this 12’ tall jet black van that was sitting in their cornucopia walking up to about 60 feet from the van. They darted away but calmed back down. After about 15 minutes of silently watching the Hogs we deemed them calm and with the utmost sound discipline, moving slowly, we set up our gear on the opposite side of the van. The hunters set up nearly shoulder to shoulder. We could see the hogs with our naked eye, meaning they could see us in turn. 3, 2, bang! 4 Hogs dropped immediately and several others were hit. In the fray one Hog got back up and started running for it’s life. We took shots on it, but the Swine had a strong will to live. We ended up with a Sow, Boar and Gilt yielding some excellent Wild Hog Meat and a nice Trophy Hog Head. 

Our next go round took place on our third choice field. We spotted what almost looked like a Raccoon with its hind quarters high in the air. The guide disembarked from the van to get a closer look. The raccoon quickly turned into a Big Boar that was deep in the wallows it had been rooting all night. We set out on a 700 Yard Stalk and due to the intensity of the moonlight, took our shots from about 175 yards. The hog didn’t stand a chance, and after losing one that played opossum on our last go round, we gave this boar no quarter. A nice 250lb Boar, another Trophy Boar Head. Good shooting with these SWAT Boys. New Jersey is in good hands!

Harvesting Wild Hogs

Guide Capt Ben led the Hunt with varying levels of success, initially encountering Hogs darting across the fields. In the third field, a Lone Hog cautiously peeked out of the trees, catching their attention. After observing the Pig for approximately 10 minutes, the decision was made to move on to a more promising location.

As they departed, they were surprised to find that the initial Wild Hog had brought a companion along for the journey. With their gear at the ready and navigating unpredictable winds, they positioned themselves strategically behind the cover of tall winter wheat, utilizing the partial moonlight to their advantage. Taking careful aim from approximately 100 yards away, they managed to swiftly take down both Boars with precision shots, resulting in a successful and exciting conclusion to the Hunt. It was a memorable moment as both Hogs were harvested and the team celebrated their accomplishment in the field.

The Jersey Devil's Take On Wild Hogs

Photo Night 2: Don’t Make A Deal With The Jersey Devils @HogSWAT

Guide Hank said these Jersey devils were hungry for Hog Meat so they took a Hunting Trip to Georgia where they could slay some Hogs with us. The first field they pulled into was empty, so they moved on to the next field where they found a Solo Hog and were able to take it down. The next few fields they checked were also empty, but on their last stop of the night they circled back to the first field they had looked at and found a Sounder of 20+ Pigs.

It wasn't a question of whether there were Pigs in a field, but rather when they would show up. The group Stalked the Pigs as they moved through the field, getting closer as they grew more comfortable. However, one of the Wild Pigs started approaching them, causing the rest of the Sounder to follow. The Jersey devils quickly set up their gear and were able to take down 3 Pigs before the others ran off the field.

Jersey Devils seem to have gotten their fill on Bacon because they only got one Piggy on night 2. Running around all night looking for the Wild Pigs with one briefly spotted before it disappeared. Word must’ve got out that the devils were in town because they were all hiding. At 3am a sharp Hog was spotted so we pulled out a death warrant and had the Wild Hog sign it in exchange for some peanuts. Naturally the hog got shot and died. Didn’t anyone teach that pig you don’t make deals with the devil?

2 PIG PILES 1 NIGHT

Guide Hank had some lethal company tonight. The first field they pulled into had Pigs and heavy rain. They shot and killed 6 Wild Pigs, with some on the run. Hank thought what they did was pretty awesome, so they decided to do it again. The second field they entered had a Sounder at the tree line. Approaching the Hogs with perfect wind, the group showed Hank that 6 wasn't just a fluke because they did it again, killing 6 more for a total of 12 Wild Hogs! These guys know how to have a good time and shoot with accuracy.

They checked several more fields to try and add to the number, but Guide Hank thinks the Hogs could sense these guys were nearby and made sure to stay clear of the Lethal Shooters. It was a great night of Hunting with these guys.

It was a crazy and successful night with Jim and Roger. It started off with some unforeseeable minor issues when they were picked up, which led to them using a nearby field as a range to save time. After finishing the range sequence, a Sounder of Pigs was spotted just 6-700 yards out. They immediately started Hunting and only managed to kill one Pig due to a pivot behind it preventing further shots.

In the third field they checked, they found 5 Wild Hogs, but gunshots from a neighboring field scared them off. The Hogs had moved to another field behind the one they were on. Upon driving over to the other field, they found the Wild Pigs hiding in a low spot and managed to kill 2 Big Boars and injured a third that escaped into the woods.

The sixth and final field they pulled into was teeming with deer, over 100 of them. Upon closer inspection, they noticed 2 Wild Pigs mixed in with the deer. As they approached the Pigs, a deer started blowing at them, alerting the Pigs and causing them to move further away. After following the Hogs for about 100 yards, Jim and Roger took their shots and successfully killed both Wild Hogs, the two biggest of the night weighing over 200lbs each.

After taking some pictures, they encountered another minor issue but that didn't deter them. They eventually made it back home with a total of 5 pigs, despite the setbacks at the beginning and end of the hunt. We hope it was night of Hog Hunting that Jim and Roger will never forget.

On the first night of Wild Hog Hunting, they drove around some choice fields until 2:30 am, only managing to shoot one Tiny Hog out of a group of six. Despite the slow start, they were determined and ready for night two.

Their second night proved to be much more eventful. They successfully recovered a 200lb Sow from the tree line in their second field. The following field provided them with the excitement of Shooting a Small Sounder of 15 Pigs. Although the Big Pig they were targeting managed to escape after being shot three times, they were still able to take one smaller Hog off the Field.

Moving on to their fourth field, they encountered a Massive Hog Group of approximately 40 Wild Hogs. With precision and skill, they were able to drop a 250lb Boar from the Sounder. It was a successful night after the slow start they had experienced previously, and they were pleased with their results.

2nd night started off slow. They found some Pigs but got screwed by the terrain and wind. That didn’t stop them because they kept looking until they snuck up on a group of Juvenile Pigs. They killed 4, and one of them was from Tyler with a ~300 Yard Snipe from a Hog on the run! It was already around 3am when they finished up. The last field they checked held a Sounder where the guys dropped 5 Wild Hogs. After Butchering and walking off the field I spotted a Solo Pig begging to be shot so we took a detour on the way to the Hunting Van and killed the last Wild Pig of the night topping the group off at a nice even 10 Pigs making it double digits!

On the second night of their Hog Hunt, they started off hot and found 6 Pigs in their second choice field. After a short Stalk down the access road, they set up and dropped 4. After Butchering the Hogs, they drove around looking for more but unfortunately, some things that start with a bang end with a whimper.

Freaking Hog Snipers!

The first field held a couple of nice-sized Boars. The Stalk was muddy and wet, but fortunately, the rain had given way. They closed to about 60 yards when we set up and fired a volley. Nailed ‘em! That was the easy part. Afterward, they dragged our pigs about 400 yards through the mud until they could finally hitch them to the Hog Van and get them to the Hog dump. Then proceeded onto a few more fields and didn’t find much luck. Eventually, at a large peanut field, they found 6 Smaller Pigs; however, the wind switched up on them and they got spooked. They headed down the road a bit and immediately saw about 20 Wild Pigs in a Large Sounder. As they got close, it became apparent that there were more like 50+ Hogs in a Mega Sounder! These Pigs had no idea what was coming, and we fed them lead. After the dust settled, our Hunters got exactly what they wanted: 8 Suckling Pigs for a total of 10 downed throughout the night!

Hunting Wild Hogs

They struggled to find Pigs the first 4 hours of the Hunt, checking multiple fields. They finally pulled into a field where they spotted 2 Hogs. They started walking towards the Wild Hogs and found a Sounder past a high spot. They were able to maneuver around the other Wild Pigs and get close enough to shoot at the group. The guys killed 3 pigs! On the way off the field there was another pig minding his own business so they dropped the bags of meat they just butchered, and walked right up to the Solo Pig and took it down with the cadence shot. They totaled 4 pigs for the night!

These guys took down 4 Pigs and a Coyote. These 4 guys can crack jokes all night and still Slay Wild Hogs. They didn’t see any Wild Pigs on the 2nd field we checked, but had the opportunity to shoot a coyote, and they nailed him. Found a Sounder on the second field 4th field they checked. They set up and was able to take down 2 Wild Hogs. After that they dropped in on a nearby field, and snuck right up on a nice sized Solo Boar and ended him with the first shot. After they dragged the Wild Boar off the field they circled back and checked the same field they took down the first 2, and there were more pigs in the same spot! They pulled in once more to shoot a ton of Hogs but were only able to secure one more. I’m sure others died shortly after in the tree line. They have more slaughtering to do tomorrow night!
