Hog SWAT Hog Hunting with Guide Jordan
If you are looking for the Ultimate Night Hog Hunt, you know that the conditions can change in a heartbeat. Last night, Guide Jordan led an intense, one-night Georgia Hog Hunting excursion that put our gear, our patience, and our stalking skills to the test. From predator control to high-stakes sounder sweeps, here is the breakdown of the action.
Predator Control: Coyote Hunting at Close Range
We kicked off the night at our first location with high expectations. It didn’t take long for the Thermal to pick up two high-speed heat signatures: Coyotes.
We began a tactical stalk, but these "ghosts of the woods" slipped into a low spot in the standing corn. Thinking the opportunity had passed, we looped back toward the hunt van. Suddenly, they reappeared on our right flank, closing the gap to a mere 30-50 yards. Jordan signaled for silence, got one of the coyotes to pause, and with one hunter ready, we got the coyote on the spot. It was a perfect start to a night of Nighttime Predator Hunting.
Navigating Deer and Wild Boar
Next, we transitioned to a new property where we spotted a massive sounder of wild pigs on a northern field. After calling in Luke for backup, we moved in for a group stalk. This is where thermal hog hunting gets tricky.
As we moved in, a group of deer began cycling through the field, positioned directly between us and our targets. We found a narrow lane to continue the stalk, but the local wildlife had other plans. A deer on our left caught our scent and blew the alarm, sending the entire sounder bolted into the timber. It’s a classic reminder that when you’re Stalking Wild Hogs, the wind and the surrounding wildlife are just as important as anything else in Hog Hunting.
Hog Harvest
Determined to put some pork on the ground, we split up to glass different fields. Jordan spotted a second sounder and we quickly regrouped. This time, we played the wind perfectly, angling our approach to stay undetected.
We managed to get within 100 yards of the pigs as they settled into a natural "bowl" in the terrain—the perfect zone for a Thermal Hog Hunting. We coordinated our chances and successfully harvested three hogs in a matter of seconds.
Why Hunt with Hog Swat?
