First Night of Hog Hunting started off getting on a sounder in some Wheat. Were able to put quite a few down but it was impossible to gather them all up in the tall wheat. Jordan was able to put hands on 3 without spending more time trying to recover all of them. Found another sounder on a field just outside of Americus, GA and tried to get super close. Jordan was able to use the tree line to get within 50 yards to ensure the best opportunity. Double digits of hogs down has eluded him this season, but he gets the most opportunities of any guide. After the smoke settled and the screams stopped only 2 hogs were down in the field. He was heart broken, but happy to help the farmers.
I tell Jordan I make it look easy. Jordan, sometimes you don’t always get what you want. Jordan sometime customers don’t really want to take that much meat home. Jordan, you need to get closer. Jordan, use a bigger caliber. Jordan, have them aim. Jordan I need to stop typing this, but I am having too much fun.
Spot and Stalk Hog Hunting

Started the night fast, finding the first sounder of wild hogs and putting 4 down after they got spooked. We spent the rest of the night checking fields, spotting plenty of deer movement, but the hog activity suddenly turned into a ghost town.
Guide Noah stayed persistent and finally located another sounder of feral hogs feeding in a muddy field. After a long, slow stalk through the dark, one of the hunters accidentally slammed his thermal optic while setting up, spooking the group. Even with the busted opportunity, the hunters managed to drop one big sow hog before the rest disappeared into the night.
Not every Georgai hog hunt goes perfectly, but nights like this are what make predator and hog hunting unforgettable — spot and stalk action, thermal hunting, muddy fields, close encounters, and hard-earned success on invasive wild pigs.

Two friends hunting together with us in Georgia. They wanted a quick Hog Hunt and Guide Noah was able to get them on a single boar after checking a few fields. we usually hunt late, but since we are fully private customers can dictate when the hunts need to end. We pride ourselves on safety and putting in the work to get our customers on Hogs.

Guide Jordan was able to get them on a sounder early dropping 3 to start the night. Later in the night a scout called them in on a single wild hog and they dropped it with ease. Later a failed stalk happened and the sounder spooked. Hunting at night has its challenges limited viability, fatigue, muddy walking condition, and most of all the thrill. We love guiding hunts and helping our farmers. Book a Hunt at www.HogSWAT.com

We just wrapped up an incredible 2 Night Thermal Hog Hunt here in Americus GA. After a solid first night, the team headed back out to face some challenging conditions. While the evening started slow with heavy fog rolling into the fields, our thermal gear allowed us to cut through and find where the Wild Boars were hiding.
The highlight of this night of Wild Hog Hunting was an intense engagement at one of our southern properties where the team successfully secured 6 pigs in a single go-around. The action was fast-paced, with the group working together to manage the harvest while scouting for the rest of the sounder. Later in the night, a great tip led us to another group of pigs where we added 2 more to the tally, bringing our Night 2 total to 8.
Combined with the 6 hogs from the previous session, this group finished their trip with a total of 14 Wild Hogs harvested! We are extremely grateful we got to take these guys out for the full experience. It was a pleasure having them on the Guided Hog Hunt, and we hope they had a blast with the Best Hog Hunting outfit in Georgia.
Americus, Ga Hog Hunting

The Night Hog Hunting kicked off with plenty of movement as we navigated various terrains in Americus GA. After scouting several properties, we coordinated with Guide Noah to locate a large single boar. Using our AGM Thermal gear, we executed a successful Spot And Stalk Hunting, closing the distance to 100 yards and securing the first harvest of the night.
Later in the shift, we located a sounder of over 10 Wild Hogs positioned in the center of a large field. This setup required extreme discipline; because most of the group was lined up with an irrigation pivot, we had to carefully select targets in a safe chance lane to the left. The team initiated a 400-yard stalk and engaged, successfully tagging their targets during a high-speed encounter.
Despite the late hour, our guests' enthusiasm kept us in the field until past 5:00 AM, checking every possible acre for activity. We are grateful we got to take such a dedicated group out with us. It was a pleasure having them in the field, and we hope they had an unforgettable experience Hog Hunting in Georgia!

The night began with a strategic choice. After spotting multiple groups of Wild Hogs, the team decided to pursue a pair of hogs nearby rather than risk alerting a larger sounder further out. Through steady coordination and follow-up chances, they successfully secured the first harvest of the night Hog Hunting.
Later, the group located a large single boar and initiated a 250-yard Spot And Stalk. After the initial engagement, the team showed great persistence, tracking the Wild Boar and securing the second harvest at long range. We ended the night with two successful harvests and a lot of ground covered. We are grateful we got to take these guys out and hope they had a great time experiencing Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia!

This is the start of a 2 Night Hog Hunt! This Thermal Hog Hunt started the night with a successful stalk on a single in the north fields, followed by another successful harvest near the woodline at our second location. Using our thermal, we tracked a large sounder that eventually moved onto our property near a pivot system. After waiting for a safe chance window, the team engaged and secured their third pig of the night.
We ended the morning with 3 pigs down! We are extremely grateful we got to take these guys out in the field with us. It was a pleasure having them on night 1 of this Wild Hog Hunt. Let’s see what night 2 brings!

We started the night strong in the first field, where we successfully secured 2 Wild Hogs. We spent the rest of the evening tracking several other sounders across South GA farmland. While the other groups of Wild Boars managed to evade us later in the night, we had some great opportunities and long stalks.
We are extremely grateful we got to take these guys out in the field with us. It was a pleasure having them on the Thermal Hog Hunt, and we hope they had a great time experiencing Hog Hunting in Georgia.

The Core of Our Georgia Hog Hunting
When you book a 1 Night Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT, you aren't just paying for access to fields; you are paying for professional tactical hog hunting oversight. Thermal Hog Hunting in the varied terrain of South GA requires intense focus and a guide who knows how to navigate complex environments to ensure a successful harvest.
Spot and Stalk Hog Hunting
On a recent night led by Guide Jordan, the team located a sounder of Wild Hogs positioned near a cluster of farm buildings. Because we hunt on active agricultural land, our guides perform a full environmental briefing before every Spot And Stalk Hog Hunting.
Jordan identified the safest lane for engagement and coached the hunter into a prime position using our Thermal gear. By setting up the tripod for maximum stability and identifying the target clearly, the guest was able to successfully secure a harvest on a Wild Boar. At Hog SWAT, we believe the Best Hog Hunting happens when preparation meets the right opportunity, and this first success set a great tone for the night.
The Intensity of the Sounder Stalk
Later in the evening, the team used their thermal to locate a massive sounder of approximately 30 pigs moving through a southern field. This is the heart of Unlimited Hog Hunting—finding the large groups that cause the most significant damage to Georgia farmers.
Jordan led a stealthy Spot And Stalk to within 100 yards of the massive group. While the pigs were alert and eventually managed to evade the group into a low spot, the experience of being that close to 30 Wild Boars is an adrenaline rush you can only find with a premier Georgia Hog Hunting outfitter. Our guides work tirelessly to put you in the right spot, managing the wind and the terrain until the very last field of the night.

The Ultimate Thermal Hog Hunting Experience in South Georgia
📋 48-Hour Field Report: Georgia Hog Hunting
Lead Guide: Max
Location: Americus, Georgia (Sumter County)
Target Species: Invasive Wild Boar Sounders
Primary Gear: High-Resolution Thermal Gear Systems
Duration: 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunting Experience
Our recent Hog HuntIn Georgiawhich was 2 nights was a masterclass in why persistence is the secret to success in the South Georgia outdoors. While the first evening presented some environmental challenges, the second night delivered the kind of high-volume Thermal Hog Hunting In Georgia activity that every visitor hopes to see.
Navigating the Wind on a Georgia Night Hog Hunt
On Night 1, Guide Max and his guests—a fantastic husband-and-wife duo—utilized their Thermal Imaging to scan the treelines. The primary challenge was the shifting winds, which can often push a hunter's scent toward the targets and alert the Wild Hogs.
Despite the difficult breeze, the team stayed patient. They used their thermal gear to track a small group and managed to get a few looks at the movement in the distance. While no collection was made on that first evening, the high spirits of the group and the sheer amount of intel gathered set the stage for an incredible follow-up.
High-Volume Wild Boar Activity

By Night 2, the conditions settled, and the activity level hit a multi-year high. Max reported seeing more movement on a single field than he has seen in seasons. Using professional thermal, a massive sounder was detected emerging from the cover. This provided the hunters with multiple opportunities to test their skills and observe the behavior of these large groups in total darkness.
Navigating a sounder of that size requires intense focus and steady thermal tracking. They had several chances to line up on the moving targets as they traversed the open ground. While many of the hogs managed to slip back into the trees, the persistence of the team was about to be rewarded. Moving targets is harder than it looks.
Successful Thermal Hog Hunting Harvest
Photo: Hog Hunting In Georgia @HogSWAT
From the middle of that massive group, the team was able to successfully secure a large single hog. It was a rewarding moment for the couple, who brought great energy to the Hog Hunting trip from start to finish.
This is the true value of a 2-Night Hog Hunt: it gives visitors the time to adjust to the environment, master the Thermal Equipment, and wait for that one window where the fields truly come alive.
🐗 Frequently Asked Questions: Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia
Why is thermal imaging better than traditional night vision for hog hunting? Thermal Hog Hunting allows us to detect heat signatures through thick brush and tall corn where traditional night vision might fail. It gives our guides a massive advantage in spotting Wild Boar from long distances.

Why book a 2-night hog hunt instead of a single night? A 48-hour window allows our guides to account for weather changes, like the shifting winds Max encountered on Night 1, ensuring you get the best possible opportunity for success. More time in the filed increases your chances for Boar Hunting.

📋 Night 2: Hog Hunting Field Report
Lead Guide: Jordan
Location: South Georgia (Sumter County Area)
Conditions: Clear, Thick Corn/Winter Wheat
Equipment: High-Resolution Thermal
Outcome: Two Large Sows Successfully Secured
If Night 1 of Guide Jordan’s recent 2-night Georgia Hog Hunting Trip was about the excitement of the find, Night 2 was a masterclass in strategy and persistence. Success in the Georgia outdoors requires working the angles, battling the terrain, and waiting for the perfect window to ensure a successful evening.
Coyote Hunting In Georgia
The evening started with a series of scouts across several active properties. While the main targets were staying quiet early on, the group spotted multiple coyotes. Jordan got the visitors positioned for a few opportunities for Hunting Coyotes, but the elusive predators managed to slip away into the darkness.
The Hog Hunting Approach
The momentum changed when Jordan spotted a large group of wild hogs deep in a cornfield. Because of the terrain and nearby structures, Jordan guided the team through a high-stakes, tactical walk-in. To ensure the best positioning, the group took the "hard route"—advancing cautiously along the east treeline to maintain a safe and effective vantage point.
The trek was intense. At one point, the group was incredibly close, moving quietly through the corn. The animals were vocal and agitated, but our team held their positions perfectly.
Securing the Wild Hog Harvest
Jordan predicted the group would move to the right once the action started, and his intuition was spot on. As the encounter unfolded, the team stayed composed under pressure. By the time the movement stopped, the team had successfully secured two large sows.
A Test of Grit In Hunting Hogs With Hog SWAT
Every Thermal Hog Hunting trip has its challenges, and this one was a testament to the determination of our guests. One of our visitors was back in the field after a major heart procedure—an incredible feat to be out navigating the thick Georgia cornfields. Because of the physical nature of the trek and the size of the collection, the team focused on processing the harvest right there in the field.

Georgia Hog Hunting

There is something special about Georgia Night Hog Hunting just after a fresh rain. Guide Max led a recent session where the damp air and bright moonlight created the perfect atmosphere for an elite Wild Hog Hunting experience. While the movement started off slow, the team’s persistence paid off as they located a group of three hogs and successfully secured a recovery.
At Hog SWAT, we know that for many of our guests, the Best Hog Hunting experience doesn't end in the field. This group is walking away with more than just a great story; we are processing their harvest into premium Cheddar Jalapeño and Maple links. Along with the custom sausage, they’ve requested a professional Euro mount to commemorate their Hog Hunting success.
Whether you are here for the high-octane action of Thermal Hog Hunts or you’re looking to stock your freezer with the best organic meat, we take pride in every step of the process. It’s always 'fun shooting stuff,' but it’s even better when that Guided Hog Hunting trip results in a trophy on the wall and a feast on the table
Thermal Hog Hunts
Night two of our Hog Hunting Georgia expedition proved that in the world of Wild Boar Hunting, you have to be ready for anything—technical or otherwise. We started the evening at our newest property, utilizing Thermal for Hog Hunting to track a large sounder moving through a low spot near a local pond.
Professionalism is key in Night Hog Hunting, so we exercised extreme patience, waiting for the sounder to clear a group of nearby deer before engaging. Despite an initial equipment hurdle, the team stayed focused. When a second sounder entered the field exactly where the first had been, we seized the opportunity. With all three shooters synchronized, we secured a triple recovery in a high-action encounter that pushed our equipment to the limit.
The night wasn't without its technical challenges. Between re-mounting a silencer and performing a field-reset on a thermal unit, our guides proved they are just as much technicians as they are hunters. At Hog SWAT, we ensure the gear stays running so the Hog Hunting experience never stops. Though the group decided to head in early after a long night of tactical maneuvers and field dressing, it was another successful chapter in our South Georgia management efforts.

If you want to know what Hog Hunting Georgia is really like, just ask guide Jordan about his first night at the Mercer property. Real-world Night Hog Hunting doesn't always go according to plan, and when the Georgia mud (what we call Georgia clay) claimed our scouting van, Jordan didn't call it a night—he went to work.
While waiting for a recovery team, Jordan literally dug the group out by hand to ensure the Hog Hunt continued on foot. This level of dedication to Wild Boar Hunting paid off quickly. The team located a single boar at 100 yards, and despite the target's best efforts to relocate after the first chance, the group stayed focused until the recovery was secured.
Even with a tow truck on the way, the mission didn't stop. The team pivoted to a new sector using a backup vehicle, utilizing Thermal Hog Hunting to locate multiple sounders in a fresh field. After some tactical gate-scouting and a stealthy 90-yard approach, a second successful recovery was made. We finished the night with field-dressing and marking new territory for future Boar Hunting success. It was a night defined by mud, grit, and the refusal to go home empty-handed—exactly what Hog Hunting Georgia is all about.
Hog Hunting With Thermal
The first night of our Georgia Hunting Trip with guide Jordan was a masterclass in thorough scouting. After checking several sectors with no activity, our team utilized a coordinated scouting strategy at a new location. By splitting our observation points, we were able to quickly identify a single Wild Hog in a low spot of the field.
The group executed a disciplined approach, closing the distance to 100 yards. In professional Boar Hunting, ensuring a clean recovery is the top priority. After the initial connection, the team moved in and utilized follow-up measures to ensure the process was handled with professional standards. It was a successful start that rewarded the group's patience during the early quiet hours.
Later in the evening, our Thermal Hog Hunting scouts located another single in the western fields. We took our time with this 120-yard setup, emphasizing the Hog SWAT philosophy of being '100% ready' before calling the shot. While technical readiness at the range is one thing, the heat of a Wild Hog encounter can challenge even the most prepared. Although the second opportunity didn't result in a recovery before the target reached the property line, the night provided invaluable experience in real-world tactical conditions. We are ready to take these lessons into night two for more Hog Hunting in Georgia.
