Hog Hunting: Close Encounters

Night two of this 2-Night Hog Hunt in Georgia brought continued opportunity and steady action throughout the evening.

The night began with checking several areas that had produced activity earlier, though movement was limited initially. Continued scouting paid off when a single hog was located in open ground, allowing the group to set up within close range. Solid initial hits were made before the hog moved off into nearby cover. Careful tracking followed, though the Wild Hog was not recovered.

As the night continued, additional areas were checked, producing several more encounters. Another single hog was spotted near open ground but moved off before a setup could be completed. Later in the evening, a sounder was located in an area outside of accessible ground, confirming that hog movement remained strong across the region.

One final opportunity presented itself later in the night when another single hog was located at close range. A setup was made and shots connected, but the hog moved into cover before recovery could be confirmed. Continued efforts were made to locate the hog, but it was ultimately not found.

While recoveries weren’t confirmed on night two, the Hog Hunt was far from quiet. Multiple encounters, close-range setups, and steady movement throughout the night reflected strong hog presence in the area. Combined with the activity seen on night one, the two-night Thermal Hunt demonstrated just how dynamic and unpredictable Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia can be.
