From Blue Catfish to Wild Hogs

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Americus, Georgia with Hog SWAT brought a unique start to the night.
James had been down in Florida chasing blue catfish and decided to make the most of the trip by heading north for a Night of Hog Hunting in South Georgia. The decision paid off quickly.
The Wild Hog Hunt kicked off strong when the first field revealed a sounder of hogs, creating an immediate opportunity. The setup came together efficiently, resulting in a sow recovered early in the night.
As the night went on, additional hogs were located, but they stayed on the move and slipped out of the fields before a clean setup could develop. After covering ground and making several stalk attempts, the group headed back toward the van — only to spot a large boar roughly 200 yards away.
With no time to waste, the stalk was on.
As the group closed the distance, the Wild Boar became alert and began moving toward cover. James stayed composed and made his first chance at approximately 100 yards, followed by a second chance after the boar briefly stopped farther out, ending the night with an exciting finish.
From early sounder action to a long-range boar encounter, the Hunt delivered exactly what Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is known for — unpredictability, fast decisions, and memorable moments in the field.
A great One-Night Hunt in the books, and Hog SWAT was proud to be part of James’ South Georgia Hunting experience.
Night 2
Close Calls, Perfect Wind, and the Reality of the Hunt
Night 2 of this two-night hunt with Hog SWAT delivered exactly what hunting so often does — close encounters, perfect conditions, and moments where timing matters most.
The night started strong with a single hog feeding in the middle of an open field. After repositioning to close the distance, the stalk came together cleanly. The wind was perfect, movement was quiet, and the team closed in to roughly 70–80 yards. The setup was solid, but the opportunity slipped away when the shots didn’t connect.
Later in the night, another single hog appeared while crossing an open field. Jordan quickly got the hunters into position and waited patiently for the pig to turn broadside — exactly what you want on a setup like that. Just as the countdown began, a shot went early and the hog disappeared into the darkness.
From there, the team continued covering ground and checking productive areas, but the fields stayed quiet. No additional hogs showed themselves for the remainder of the night.
That’s hunting.
Sometimes everything lines up — the wind, the approach, the setup — and it still doesn’t end with a recovery. Every hunter, regardless of experience or species, has nights like this. What matters is effort, patience, and understanding that success isn’t guaranteed.
Jordan stayed focused until the very end, giving the hunt everything he had across both nights. The hunters stayed positive, trusted the process, and experienced what real thermal hog hunting in South Georgia is all about — not a staged outcome, but an honest hunt.
Night 2 closed without a recovery, but it closed with something just as important:
a true hunting experience.
Night 1

Effort, Patience, and the Reality of Hunting
Night 1 of this two-night thermal hog hunt with Hog SWAT proved to be one of the most demanding hunts of the season — a true example of how unpredictable and physically challenging real hunting can be.
The night began with a detailed range session, ensuring every safety detail was covered and that the hunters felt confident before stepping into the field. From the start, communication and preparation were a priority.
After checking several areas without activity, Jordan located a sounder of hogs close to the road, creating an immediate opportunity. A clear plan was explained, positions were confirmed, and the group moved carefully into the field. The setup came together quickly, but the hogs shifted direction and moved out into open ground before eventually disappearing into the distance without a recovery.
As the night continued, Jordan adjusted tactics and locations, finding multiple additional opportunities, including pairs and singles in challenging terrain. Some encounters required extra patience due to field layout, farm equipment, and the physical demands of moving quietly across open ground.
One single hog required a long, careful stalk while waiting for a safe angle away from equipment. Even after patiently waiting for the right moment, the hog made it into heavy cover and could not be recovered.
Late in the night, another sounder appeared, but safety considerations again dictated a slow, cautious approach. Jordan managed movement carefully, prioritized safe angles, and waited for a clear opportunity. Shots were taken, but the hog moved into thick cover before a recovery could be made.
Throughout the night, Jordan remained focused on safety, communication, and giving maximum effort, even as conditions made movement difficult and opportunities brief. The hunters stayed positive, trusted the process, and understood that nights like this are part of all hunting — not just hog hunting.
Night 1 didn’t end with a recovery, but it reflected exactly what Hog SWAT stands for:
real conditions, real effort, and honest hunting experiences.
With Night 2 still ahead, the team stayed optimistic and ready for whatever the next night would bring.
Sounders Everywhere – A Wild Night in South Georgia

Night two of this Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT was packed with nonstop action from start to finish.
Right out of the gate, Guide Zev and his hunters pulled into their first field and spotted a sounder of 15–20 pigs feeding under the half-moon sky. Within moments, they were set up and ready to go. Everything rang out, and six pigs sleeping before the rest scattered into the dark.
The next stop brought even more excitement. On Dreamland, the crew spotted another massive sounder of around 30 hogs. Zev let Guide Hank and his group take that one, and then it was on to the next field.
At HP land, they found yet another group of hogs — this time the corn was tall and visibility was tough, but they still managed to get two before one made it back into the trees. It was a true test of skill and timing in thick cover.
That’s what makes Hog Hunting in Georgia so addictive — you never know what you’ll find or how the night will unfold. Every field, every stalk, every chance brings a new challenge and a new story.
At Hog SWAT, our Guided Thermal Hog Hunts take you through real working farmland where wild hogs roam free. We don’t bait or sit in stands — we move, stalk, and hunt. With the latest thermal technology, our guides bring you face-to-face with the wild side of Georgia Hog Hunting.
Another successful night in the books for Zev and his hunters — sounders located, lead out, and more sleepy pigs on the ground. That’s Hog SWAT.

Night one of this two-night Georgia Thermal Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT kicked off with fast action and great company.
Guide Zev and his hunters set up on a Sounder of Wild Hogs near the Half Moon field by the tanks — a spot known for steady pig movement through the fall. Once the group got in range, the thermals lit up with heat signatures, and the Hog Hunt was on. Everything rang out, and several pigs were re-homed, with two recovered in the field before the rest made it into the trees.
That’s how it goes with Thermal Hog Hunting — quick decisions, unpredictable movement, and the excitement of real-time action under the night sky. The hunters handled it like pros, and the camaraderie made the night even better.
At Hog SWAT, every Wild Hog Hunt is different. We don’t sit and wait — we stalk, spot, and engage. Using the latest thermal, we track wild hogs across South Georgia farmland, helping landowners manage populations while giving hunters a true adrenaline-filled experience.
Whether it’s your first hunt or your fiftieth, Hog SWAT delivers the real deal — Guided Hog Hunts in Georgia with experienced guides, top-tier gear, and action you’ll never forget.

Guide Zev recently led a one-night Thermal Hog Hunt for Hog SWAT, and it turned into one of those short, sweet, and memorable nights in the field. The group spent the first part of the night scanning plenty of deer through the thermal, waiting for the right opportunity.
Eventually, a hog made an appearance — and that’s when things got exciting. There’s nothing quite like watching a sounder or a single hog light up on thermal in the middle of the night. Every detail, from their movement to the heat signature in the grass, brings a whole new level of adrenaline to Night Hog Hunting.
That’s what makes Boar Hunting in Georgia so unique. Even on a short trip, every field holds surprises, and every Wild Hog Hunt offers something different. The experience itself — the teamwork, the gear, and the thrill of spotting pigs under thermal — is what keeps hunters coming back year after year.
Peanut Protector Guide Captain Clayton Is BACKKKKKKKK

He is backkkkkkk!!!!! Capt. Clayton, better known as the “Peanut Protector,” led his first Hog SWAT Hog Hunt of the 2025 Hunting Season after returning from captaining boats in Homer, Alaska over the summer. And what a way to kick things off—this 1 Night Hog Hunt in Georgia turned a Graduation Hunting Trip that none of these hunters will forget.
It was the group’s first time Thermal Hunting with Hog SWAT, and the fathers had planned the Boar Hunt as a late graduation gift for their sons. The night could not have gone better. The first sounder of hogs came in as a group of four, and the hunters made it count—four pigs down, clean and fast. Later in the night, they moved on a larger group of about fifteen hogs and managed to put at least eight more on the ground.
In total, the hunters wrapped up the night with twelve wild hogs harvested. Not a bad way to celebrate graduation and not a bad way for Capt. Clayton to shake off the “rust” after a summer at sea.
As he joked afterward, “Fishing might be easier and nothing makes you sweat like dragging Hogs in South Georgia heat.”
It was a night full of action, memories, and a serious impact on the Local Hog Population. For the hunters, it was the perfect way to celebrate a milestone. For Hog SWAT, it was the perfect start to another season of Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia.

Hog Hunting is Back!

Just as dawn began to break, the early morning hours transformed the environment. Around 5 AM, an exhilarating discovery awaited them. Hank checked a field where he spotted nearly 30 Wild Hogs tucked away in a secluded corner. The adrenaline kicked in. The sight was not only staggering but also filled the Hunters with a renewed sense of purpose.
The team quickly jumped into action, showcasing their skills and teamwork. Through strategic planning and execution, they managed to secure three healthy Pigs. As the sunlight streamed in, they shifted to the next phase of their successful Wild Hog Hunt: butchering. “Butchered them in the daylight. Great success,” Hank proudly noted.

No Limit Hunts
Persistence Pays Off in a 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt
Photo: Wild Hog Down @HogSWAT
Hunting Wild Hogs requires patience, determination, and adaptability, and this past 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Guide Hank proved just that! A dedicated repeat customer returned to Hog SWAT, ready for another thrilling adventure under the South Georgia night skies. Here’s how their Hog Hunt unfolded.
Night 1: Challenging Conditions
The first night began with high hopes as the team set out for some action-packed stalking. The conditions, however, were challenging, with shifting winds and a few near-misses. A Sounder was spotted at Dream Farm, but shifting winds gave the Hogs the upper hand. Later at Ben’s, the Hog Hunter managed a few shots, hitting at least one pig before the group scattered.
The night’s unexpected highlight came while driving to a new location. A Wild Hog appeared right in front of the van, providing a quick and unexpected opportunity. Hank swiftly set up the Hunter, and while the hog was hit, it ultimately evaded capture. Despite the challenges, spirits remained high, knowing the second night promised a fresh chance to succeed.
Night 2: Success Through Strategy
The second night brought renewed energy, and this time, persistence paid off. The first Wild Hog Stalk of the evening was disrupted by deer that spooked nearby Piggies. On the second stalk, the team spotted a Wild Pig from the van but initially had trouble locating it after taking a long route to approach undetected.
Just as they were preparing to call it a night, the Pig reappeared, offering the perfect opportunity. Hank and the hunter carefully waited for the right moment, ensuring the shot was well-executed. This time, the result was a successful harvest and smiles all around—a testament to patience and determination paying off.
