The Ultimate Solo Hog Hunt

At Hog SWAT, we believe everyone should have the chance to experience the Best Hog Hunting in the United States. While we often host large groups of up to 20 people, we also offer specialized Solo Hog Hunts sessions. For these exclusive Hog Hunting Trips, we are happy to take out a single hunter with the understanding that the booking is processed as a two-person minimum. This ensures you get the full, dedicated expertise of our guides and the best Unlimited Hog Hunting experience possible.

Hog Hunt Starting Strong

Guide Noah started the night at Preston Field under a bright 1/4 moon. Despite the extra light, the team used the terrain to stay hidden. They spotted two Wild Hogs right at the start of the night. Using a high-precision Spot And Stalk, they moved within 100 yards. The hunter stayed calm and successfully secured the first harvest of the night—a great start to this Georgia Hog Hunting trip.

After checking 3 fields, the team moved toward another Field. This was a true test of stealth. With no moonlight but plenty of noise from the dry corn stalks, Noah led a massive 1,000-yard stalk, cutting the distance down to just 50 yards! The team engaged a large sounder and successfully secured another harvest.

Ending the Morning with a Bang

The night took a brief tactical turn as Noah stopped to assist Guide Jordan with a vehicle recovery (proving once again that the Hog SWAT team always has each other's backs!). Afterward, the team headed to Israel’s field for two more opportunities. While the Wild Boars in those fields were elusive and managed to evade the group, the adrenaline was high until the very end.

It was a successful solo 1 Night Hog Hunt that proved why Thermal Hog Hunting is the most exciting way to experience the Georgia outdoors.

Thermal Hog Hunting

📋 Field Report: Night Operations
Lead Guide: Jordan
Location: South Georgia (Americus Georgia)
Equipment: High-Resolution Thermal Equipment
Strategy: High-Mobility Field Rotation
Outcome: Successful Single Harvest After Extensive Tracking

The best Thermal Hog Hunting isn't always about the easy finds; it’s about the work put in when the sounders are being elusive. Guide Jordan’s recent Hog Hunt was a masterclass for Thermal Hunting, covering thousands of acres and rotating through multiple properties to ensure his guests didn't go home empty-handed.

Advanced Thermal Tracking

The night began with high-action potential as Jordan’s Thermal Imaging picked up a sounder in a large basin. Despite a tactical approach, the group slipped into the timber before a window opened. In Wild Boar Hunting, timing is everything, and when the animals are on the move, you have to be ready to pivot.

Jordan led the team through an intensive rotation, checking high-activity zones across multiple systems. From the Faceville area to the Mercer fields, the team utilized their Thermal Gear to scan every treeline and open acre. Even when a single traveler managed to reach the safety of the woods just in time, the team stayed focused on the next opportunity.

Strategic Positioning Hog Hunting

The breakthrough came near the end of the shift. While scanning a perimeter near a residence, Jordan located a single hog moving close to a group of deer.

Because of the proximity to the home and a barking dog nearby, Jordan had to be incredibly strategic with the setup. He positioned the hunters just over 100 yards out, ensuring a safe and effective angle. When the moment arrived, the team stayed composed. While the first connection sent the animal on a run, the follow-up chance quickly got the Wild Pig, securing a hard-earned success for the night.

Why Hog SWAT is the Top Choice for Night Hog Hunts?

This Thermal Hunting Trip is a perfect example of why we are considered to provide the Best Hog Hunting in the United States. Jordan pushed through a dozen different properties to find that one winning window.

Whether the sounders are out in the open or hiding in the shadows, our team has the grit and the thermal technology to stay on the trail until the job is done.

🐗 Frequently Asked Questions: Thermal Hog Hunts

How many fields do you check on a typical night? As Jordan showed on this trip, we will check as many fields as necessary to find activity. Our high-mobility approach is a core part of our Guided Hog Hunting Trips.

What is the "bowl" or "basin" strategy? When we spot animals in low-lying areas, we use the terrain to mask our approach. This is a key part of our thermal hog hunting tactics to get guests as close as possible before the action starts.
