Hunting Hogs At Night

Boar Hunting In Georgia

Boar Hunting in Georgia isn’t always easy — some nights test your patience, your timing, and your ability to adapt. But that’s what makes Thermal Hog Hunting so rewarding.

On this hunt, Guide Capt. Max led his hunters through a quiet South Georgia night that started slow. After several fields with little movement, they finally spotted a Sounder of Wild Hogs feeding among the tall corn stalks. Everything was lining up until the wind shifted — and the group scattered.

But one Lone Boar made the mistake of staying behind. With the Thermal locked in, the hunters lined up for the perfect shot —
Bam! Pow! Pow! Pow! — the boar dropped instantly.

That’s what Hog SWAT hunts are all about — patience, teamwork, and the adrenaline rush that comes when all the pieces fall into place. Every Wild Hog Hunt is different, and every stalk teaches something new about how these powerful animals move through Georgia farmland.

At Hog SWAT, we specialize in Guided Thermal Hog Hunts across South Georgia, using state-of-the-art thermal to track and manage Feral Hog Populations. Wild Hogs cause millions in crop damage each year, and our Hog Hunts help control their numbers while giving hunters an unforgettable experience in the process.

If you’re ready to experience the challenge of Boar Hunting in Georgia, Hog SWAT delivers — real guides, real Hunts, and real results.

No Easy Hunts

Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia isn’t for everyone — it takes grit, patience, and a good pair of boots. On night two of this Guided Hog Hunt, Guide Zev led his hunters deep into the darkness once again, searching for Wild Pigs across the open fields and backroads of South Georgia.

They found plenty of pigs throughout the night, but that’s where the challenge begins. Hog Hunting after dark is all about reading the wind, staying quiet, and getting close enough to make it count — all while moving in total darkness guided only by thermal that the guide has.

Every stalk tests your focus. Every step matters. There are nights where you walk miles, guideds scanning with the thermal, knowing the pigs are out there — but getting in range takes time, patience, and persistence.

Even without a shot fired, the experience is unforgettable. Watching a Sounder of Wild Hogs drift through the fields, the hum of the thermal, and the stillness of the Georgia night — that’s what keeps hunters coming back.

At Hog SWAT, every Wild Hog Hunt is an adventure. Our Guided Hog Hunts take you deep into wild country to experience the real side of Georgia Hog Hunting — challenging, unpredictable, and always exciting.

Guided Thermal Hog Hunt

Night one of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT kicked off with some solid success under the stars.

Guide Zev led his hunter out east to Larry Cooper Road, where the team spotted a Sounder of Wild Hogs moving through the fields. With expert setup and precision Hunting, he managed to drop two pigs before the rest of the group disappeared into the trees — a strong start to this South Georgia Hunt.

The action proves one thing: the pigs are still out there, and they’re on the move. This region is packed with Feral Hog activity, especially around farmland and backroads where Hog SWAT runs its Wild Hog Hunts. Every night brings a different challenge, and that’s what keeps Night Hog Hunting so exciting.

At Hog SWAT, we specialize in Guided Thermal Hog Hunts in South Georgia, using state-of-the-art thermal to help hunters spot and engage hogs after dark. Our Thermal Hunts aren’t just about the thrill — they help landowners protect their crops and property from the damage caused by wild hogs.

Whether you’re booking your first Guided Hog Hunt in Georgia or returning for another adventure, Hog SWAT delivers the full experience — top-tier equipment, experienced guides, and plenty of adrenaline once the pigs start moving.

Night two is up next, and if it’s anything like this one, we’re in for another great night of Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia.

Bachelor Hog Hunting Trip

There’s no better way to celebrate a bachelor party than Chasing Wild Hogs under the stars — even when the pigs have other plans. Guide Zev led this one-night Thermal Hog Hunt in South Georgia, just outside Americus, GA, and it was one to remember.

The night started strong when the Thermal Drone spotted a few Wild Hogs at one of the fields we crop protect — twice. The group tried to stalk in close, but the pigs vanished into the trees before anyone could get a shot off. From there, the Hog Hunt turned into a true South Georgia adventure: walking fields in the dark, admiring the stars, and keeping the laughs going with plenty of trash talk in the van.

The guys came loaded down with all kinds of tactical gear, ready for action, but sometimes that’s just how Thermal Night Hunting goes — unpredictable and full of surprises. Even without a harvest, the crew had a blast and made memories that’ll last long after the bachelor party’s over.

If you’re planning your own Bachelor Party Hunt in Georgia, grab your friends and come experience the thrill of a Guided Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT. Every night brings a new adventure.

Father-Daughter Duo and a Close Call for the Dawgs 🐗❤️

It was another great night of Hog Hunting in Americus Georgia with Guide Zev leading the way for this Father-Daughter Hunting Duo! After dropping five pigs on night one, the crew wasn’t done yet — they were back for round two and ended the hunt with one Big Pig down.

Meanwhile, Georgia fans were holding their breath as the Dawgs faced Auburn, trailing until the fourth quarter. We didn’t score until the third — it was way too close for comfort. But just like the Dawgs pulled through with a 20–10 win, this Father-Daughter Hunting Team stuck it out and made it happen under the stars.

There’s nothing better than seeing Families Hunting together and making memories that’ll last forever. Whether it’s college football Saturdays or late-night stalks in the fields, South Georgia keeps you on your toes.

If you’ve never experienced the rush of a Thermal Hog Hunt, come see what it’s all about. You might just get your own story worth cheering for.

Why You Should Avoid Light-Colored Shirts on Night Hog Hunts

What to wear hog hunting

Photo: Hog Hunting @PigProblem

When it comes to Night Hog Hunting, your clothing choice can make a big difference in your success—especially under a fuller moon. Wild Hogs have eyesight similar to humans. On bright nights, it’s much easier to see across a field, which means if you can spot a pig from 50–100 yards away, they can also spot you.

Wearing white or other light-colored shirts can make you stand out like a beacon in the moonlight. Since hunters are taller than Hogs, your silhouette becomes even more noticeable. Instead, choose darker clothing—deep greens, browns, or dark grays are ideal. Avoid pure black, as it can create issues with thermal.

At Hog SWAT, we recommend dressing to blend into the night. It’s one of the easiest ways to keep the Pigs from spotting you before you spot them.

Guide Kaleb recently took a father and his two sons out for a Thermal Hog Hunt that started off slow, with little movement early on. Around 1 a.m., deer began to stir, but the Pigs stayed hidden. The group stayed focused and kept working the fields.

One of their last stops was a freshly cut field. After waiting patiently near a pivot, a lone sow finally stepped out under the moonlight. With deer all around, the stalk had to be slow and quiet—but the team moved perfectly.

At about 150 yards out, they got set up and made it happen. A quiet night turned into a successful one, and a great memory was made in the process.

Guide Kaleb led an unforgettable Bachelor Hunt recently. On just the second field of the night, the group spotted a Wild Hog in the back, with a large number of deer between them and their target. They carefully worked their way around most of the deer, but one caught wind and alerted the rest of the field. The Hog became cautious, but the group made a quick move and got into position. Everything came together perfectly. The rest of the night was full of wildlife sightings, including a special moment watching a group of pups—possibly coyotes—play together under the stars. Successful Hog Hunting.

A Memorable Father-Son Hog Hunt with Guide Kaleb

Thermal Hog Hunting

Photo: Late Night Or Early Morning? @HogSWAT

Some Hog Hunts are fast and furious. Others are a grind. This one was the latter—but what a payoff.

Guide Kaleb recently led a 2 Night Thermal Hog Hunt for a Father and Son Hunting Duo that reminded us all why we do this: not just for the Pigs, but for the Hunting Memories made under the stars, the miles walked in the dark, and the satisfaction of earning every chance.

Night 1:

Hope at the Final Hour

The first night started slow. Real slow. Field after field turned up nothing but deer. Spirits began to fade, and by 3:30 a.m., you could feel the discouragement setting in. But Kaleb wasn’t ready to call it. He made one last push, one final sweep of a back field—and at 5:30 a.m., it paid off. A Sounder of Pigs.

They were jittery right from the start. We made a careful stalk, but they weren’t making it easy. Still, Kaleb got the hunters into position. The chance was farther than ideal, but the opportunity wasn’t going to get better. It was now or never. The team connected, and though the Hogs made it to the woods, it was a thrilling way to end an otherwise slow night. The father and son were both Top-Notch Hunters—resilient, positive, and a blast to Wild Hog Hunt with despite the long wait.

Night 2:

From Frustration to Fireworks

Night two came with its own challenges. We had a Sow and her young hanging close to the treeline. Kaleb and the Hog Hunters set up in the field, ready for them to step out. After about 30 minutes, just when it looked like they were going to make a move, a deer blew our cover—literally—and spooked the whole setup.

Later in the night, we spotted a Lone Hog out in the open. It took a long walk and a careful stalk to get in range, with the moon bright and deer watching from every corner. But patience and persistence paid off. The Hunters locked in and made it count.

As the night wound down, we made one last check before calling it. Nothing at first—then a Sounder way off in the distance. The sun was about to rise, so we had to move fast. Kaleb led the final stalk, and it all came together. Both hunters landed solid chances, each re-homing a Wild Hog just before first light. The others escaped into the woods, but the smiles said it all.

We finished the Thermal Hog Hunt under a colorful South Georgia sunrise, swapping stories and laughing about the night’s events. These guys were a joy to guide, and the Guided Hog Hunt reminded us that the best moments often come when you push through the quiet stretches and keep grinding.

Some nights, the Pigs are everywhere. Other nights, they make you work for it. Guide Hank just wrapped up a 1 Night Hog Hunt that pushed patience and determination to the limit.



The night started slow—real slow. “Looked for Wild Pigs everywhere with none in sight,” Hank said. But giving up isn’t in the Hog SWAT playbook. The team stayed on the move, Scanning Fields, cutting through the darkness with Thermal Equipment, and covering miles in search of hogs.



As the night stretched into the early morning hours, it looked like the Hogs might win this round. But then, just before dawn, they caught sight of a Lone Hog sneaking through the last field of the night. This was the moment they had been waiting for.



The Hog Hunters moved in. From there it was success. But the hard work paid off: the Hunters took home some harvest and, more importantly, a night full of memories.



“Great success,” Hank summed up. And that’s what it’s all about—putting in the effort, staying patient, and making the most of every opportunity.

Some nights, the Pigs make you work. Guide Hank led a Hog Hunt that started slow—almost feeling like a burn. The team covered ground, checked field after field, and refused to call it quits.


Then, near the end of the night, persistence paid off. One of the last fields they checked had Wild Pigs. The Hunters geared up and moved in, ready to stalk the group. But as they closed the distance, a Lone Boar broke off and unknowingly walked straight toward them. With no way to maneuver around him and still get to the Sounder, things had to be done. Success.


One Hog napping for the night, but in the world of Thermal Hog Hunting, any successful stalk is a win. Some nights, the pigs pile up. Other nights, it’s about adapting, making the most of the opportunity, and proving that giving up is never an option.

Two Nights in the Field:

A Hog Hunt with Zev


Hunting Wild Hogs at night is about patience, awareness, and learning how to move through the dark without giving yourself away. Guide Zev recently took a group of 3 Hunters out for a 2 Night Thermal Hog Hunt, and while the first night tested their persistence, the second night proved to be a lesson in both skill and success.

Night 1:

Tough Luck and Coyotes

The first night out, the Hogs were nowhere to be found. That’s the reality of Hog Hunting—some nights they’re out in force, and other nights they vanish like ghosts. To break up the slow night, we tried to set up on two separate Coyotes. But let’s just say… things didn’t go as planned. Between movement, positioning, and the learning curve of Night Hunting, things happen not how we planned.


Night 2:

Pigs Down and Lessons Learned

Hog Hunting In Georgia

With the frustration of night one behind them, the guys came back determined. It paid off early when we saw a Lone Pig, and success. But the real action came later in the night when we spotted a Sounder. This time, we moved better, stalked quieter, and moved without getting caught by Wild Hogs. When the moment came, they connected—one Pig Down from the group.

We did lots of walking. Moving through open fields during night isn’t the same as walking through the fields during the day. Every step has to be intentional, every movement controlled. By night two, they had it figured out.

In the end, two Wild Pigs took a nap, and these Hog Hunters walked away with more than just harvest—they left with a deeper understanding of the Thermal Hunt. And next time, those Coyotes might not be so lucky.

A Three-Night Thermal Hunt with Guide Zev

Not every Hog Hunt goes as planned, but that’s what makes it exciting. Guide Zev recently led a 2 Night Hog Hunt for a group of three Hunters, and it turned into an adventure they won’t forget.

Night One:

When the Hogs Don’t Show, the Coyotes Will

The first night, the hunters covered ground, scanning field after field, but the Hogs weren’t moving. That’s when the hunt took an unexpected turn - a Coyote stepped into range.

Thermal Hog Hunt? Not quite. Predator Hunt? Absolutely.

If you’ve never Hunted Coyotes, you’re missing out. These fast, Elusive Predators make for an exciting challenge, and the Hog Hunters made the most of the opportunity. First success of the Hunting Trip.

Night Two:

Back on Track

With a Coyote but no Wild Hogs yet, night two was all about redemption. Guide Zev put in the work, adjusting tactics and covering new ground. Then, finally - Pigs on the move.

The Coyote Hunters wasted no time, and success a Wild Hog. Just like that, the hunt was back on track.

The Challenge of Thermal Hog Hunting

Hog Hunting with Thermal is one of the most exciting and challenging hunts you’ll find. Wild Hogs are smart, tough, and unpredictable. Some nights, they keep you guessing. Other nights, you’re right on top of them. That’s what makes it Thermal Hunting.

At Hog SWAT, we know the game. Whether it turns into a Coyote Hunt or we’re chasing down pigs, every Wild Hog Hunt is an adrenaline-packed adventure. Book your Guided Hog Hunt today and see for yourself!

The first night started strong with one Hog Down early on. The Hunters got a second chance, but it made a break for the woods. Just when they thought the night was over, another Pig popped up in the field on the way back to the van. Success agian. We’ll call that a win-win.

Night 2:

The second night started with a bit of luck. While driving past a field, Hank Spotted Pigs right by the road. Wasting no time, they turned around, pulled in, and set up behind the van for cover. Just as they were getting ready, a couple of passing vehicles lit them up with headlights - an unexpected obstacle, but the Wild Pigs didn’t bolt. The Hog Hunters had success two more Wild Hogs before the Sounder scattered.

A Wild Night in the Fields:

Hog Hunting… and a Bonus Bobcat!

At Hog SWAT, every Night Thermal Hunt is unpredictable. Some nights, the Hogs cooperate. Other nights, Mother Nature and the wild have different plans. Guide Hank recently led a group of four Hunters on a 1 Night Guided Hunt, and while the Wild Hogs played hard to get, the night still ended with a big success - including an unexpected Predator Encounter.

The Hunt Begins:

Close Calls and Tough Breaks

The first stalk of the night looked promising, but the wind wasn’t in there favor. A sharp-nosed hog caught there scent and was gone before anything could happen. On the second stalk, the team managed to connect with a Pig, but it made it into the woods before we could recover it for a picture - an unfortunate but common reality in Wild Hog Hunting.

Third Stalk:

An Unlikely Guest Appears

By the third setup of the night, the Hog Hunters were locked in and ready to go. They had just about closed the distance on a group of pigs when, out of nowhere, a Bobcat decided to crash the party - spooking the hogs and taking their place in the field.

With the Wild Pigs gone, the group quickly shifted gears. Everyone was on board with the new plan on the predator, the bobcat had its picture taken. This wasn’t just any bobcat - it was a perfect specimen, and the Bobcat Hunters decided it would make an awesome mount to remember the Bobcat Hunt.

Great Success in the End

While the night didn’t go exactly as planned, that’s what makes Thermal Hunting so exciting. Wild Hogs may have been the target, but the unexpected Trophy Bobcat of the night turned out to be a Beautiful Bobcat, making for an Unforgettable Hunting Experience.

If you’re ready for a Thermal Hog Hunt where anything can happen, book your Hunt with Hog SWAT today. Whether it’s Hogs, Coyotes, or a once-in-a-lifetime predator encounter, you never know what you’ll find in the Farm Fields of South Georgia!

Thrilling Night of Thermal Hog Hunting with Hog SWAT

Photo: Hunting @HogSWAT

If you’re looking for an Adrenaline-Filled Hunting in South Georgia, Hog SWAT has you covered! Last night, our expert Guide Hank led a group of Hunters into the field for an Unforgettable Hunting Experience in Thermal Hog Hunting. With a mix of challenge, teamwork, and a few unexpected moments, it was a night that certainly delivered on the excitement.

Hank described the crew as one of the easiest-going groups he’s encountered this season, which set the tone for an enjoyable outing. As the sun dipped below the horizon, the Thermal Equipment lit up the night, giving us a unique glimpse into the hidden world of Feral Hogs.

The Hunt Begins

Photo: It’s Just Sleeping @HogSWAT

Things kicked off with a sighting of a Wild Hog that just wouldn't sit still. In the heat of the moment, we jumped out of the van, no tripods — the excitement that comes with Thermal Hunting! As we approached the target, it spooked and bolted. Hank reported them touching the Pig two or three times, but it expectedly took off, moving at a leisurely yet determined pace almost 300 yards away.

The Chase is On

Hank assessed the situation. The Wild Pig was edging dangerously close to a pivot area, which would cut off our chance to get another chance. Time was of the essence, and in a split-second decision, Hank ensured everyone safely got into a position where he could to chase it down. Running 400 yards, he leapt a ditch, fueled by the desire to ensure the Wild Hog Hunt didn’t escape us.

Photo: You Can Run But You Can’t Hide @HogSWAT

Exhausted yet focused, Hank closed the distance, only to find that the pig had tapped into its last reserves of energy. In a final push, he sprinted towards it, as he got within 50 yards of the brush where the Wild Hog was heading. The climax of the run culminated in a decisive moment as Hank got the Hog, marking a hard-fought success.

A Bit More Excitement

But the fun didn’t end there! On the way off the field, success followed us as we managed to find two Rabbits. It appears that the night held more surprises for us than just the Hog Hunt.

While we didn’t spot any additional game after that, the thrill of the chase and the bond created among the Hog Hunters made it a night to remember.

A Night of Thrills and Surprises

At Hog SWAT, every Hunting Trip is an adventure waiting to unfold, and our recent night Hog Hunt led by Guide Hank was no exception. With three eager Hunters set for a Hunting Experience, the night promised excitement amid the unpredictability of the wild.

The Night's Journey

As Hank described it, the weather initially posed a challenge. "The weather started out crappy," he noted, referencing the less-than-ideal conditions that often accompany Late-Night Hunts. The moisture in the air made Thermal Imaging less effective, adding a layer of complexity to the evening's endeavors. Yet, our dedicated team remained optimistic, and as the weather cleared up, things began to turn around.

A Successful Stalk

The turning point of the night came around 2 a.m. After a lengthy wait, the Hog Hunters finally spotted their quarry! Thanks to the clearing skies, they were able to Stalk The Wild Hogs effectively. In a thrilling twist of fate, the Pigs walked right across their path, providing the perfect opportunity for action.

With precise and skilled strategy, the team was able to take get 2 Hogs by the end of the night. But the excitement didn't stop there.

A Surprise Encounter

In addition to the Hogs, the now Bobcat Hunters also encountered a bobcat during their night out. Hank shared, "Got a bobcat and 2 hogs," highlighting the thrill of unexpected game on a successful Wild Hog Hunt. Whether Stalking Hogs or encountering wildlife like bobcats, the night was filled with a mix of adrenaline and accomplishment.

Hunt Recap

A Night of Unexpected Success

Photo: A Massacre (of pigs) @HogSWAT

On a recent 2 Night Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT, Guide Hank found himself leading Chris, a determined Hunting customer eager to bag some Wild Boar. As night one unfolded, the duo experienced the typical unpredictable nature of Wild Hog Hunting. Despite their best efforts, the first night concluded without a sight of any Hogs, and disappointment settled in as they returned to the Hunting Van around 3:30 AM.

Frustration bubbling under the surface, Chris jokingly lamented that if they didn’t spot anything on the next field, he might as well head home to catch up on sleep. Hank chuckled at Chris's comment, knowing the game could turn at any moment. Just as they were about to call it a night, Hank spotted movement in the shadows of the next field with his Thermal.

With a renewed sense of purpose, Hank led Chris to the field, eyes scanning the terrain until they finally locked onto a sizable Sounder of Hogs. Utilizing his keen hunting skills,, successfully getting four Wild Pigs in a thrilling flurry of activity. Both guide and customer couldn't help but feel the excitement and satisfaction as they cleaned up their impressive haul for the night.

Reflecting on the unexpected twist of fate, Hank felt proud of the Hog Hunt's outcome. What started as a quiet evening turned into a testament to patience and skill, reminding both the guide and Chris of the exhilarating unpredictability inherent in Thermal Hunting.

With the success of night one tucked away, anticipation bubbled for night two of their Hunting Adventure. Would they continue their streak, or would the Elusive Hogs be just out of reach once again? Only time would tell.

Night 2 of the Hog Hunt:

A Memorable Conclusion

As the second night of their 2 Night Wild Hog Hunt unfolded, the anticipation was palpable among the group. They faced a significant challenge: a Growing Population of Wild Pigs causing chaos in the area. Undeterred by previous setbacks, the Hog Hunters were determined to find success before the evening came to a close.

After a long trek and a valiant attempt at a stalk that didn’t quite pan out, the team found themselves navigating back to their Hog Van. Just as they began to pack up, fortune smiled upon them. To their astonishment, a Group of Hogs sauntered across the field, right behind the van, while their guide, Hank, was in the process of putting up the equipment.

With a flicker of hope igniting their spirits, the Hog Hunters quickly regrouped and seized the opportunity. Their persistence paid off, resulting in the successful harvest of a fine Wild Hog by the end of the night.

The collective sigh of relief and jubilation spoke volumes; it was more than just a Wild Hog Hunt—it was an adventure filled with camaraderie, excitement, and triumph. This final night showcased the tenacity and skill of the team, proving that even when faced with challenges, success is always within reach.

Stay tuned for more Thrilling Hunting updates from the field, where the Hunt never truly ends!
