This 1-Night Hog Hunt in Georgia required persistence, patience, and a lot of ground coverage.

The night began by checking several known areas, including open fields and pivot systems, while monitoring movement across large sections of farmland. Early scanning revealed limited activity, but continued effort led to the detection of a single hog near a pivot field.

After closing the distance and setting up, a controlled engagement followed. Although the hog initially moved off at speed, careful observation and tracking revealed that it had dropped into a trench running through the field, where it was later successfully recovered.

After securing the recovery, additional fields were checked throughout the night, including multiple surrounding properties and travel corridors. While no further hog movement was located, the hunt concluded with a positive outcome and a strong effort across a wide area.

This Wild Hog Hunt highlighted the realities of Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia — covering ground, adapting to changing conditions, and staying persistent until an opportunity presents itself.
