This 1-Night Guided Hog Hunt in South Georgia delivered nonstop activity and a strong finish.
The night began with extensive scouting across multiple areas, with frequent predator and hog movement observed throughout the evening. Several early encounters required quick decision-making as animals moved in and out of cover before setups could be completed.
Later in the night, a single hog was located in open ground, allowing the group to close distance and set up carefully. After an initial encounter where the hog moved off into cover, continued scanning paid off when another hog entered the field nearby. A controlled setup followed, resulting in the first successful recovery of the night.
As the Guided Hunt continued, additional hog movement was detected near field edges and tree lines. A final stalk on a sounderproduced further success, with multiple hogs successfully recovered before activity slowed.
By the end of the night, the group had logged steady movement, multiple stalks, and three confirmed recoveries, making it a productive and exciting one-night hunt. This night highlighted exactly why persistence and adaptability are key during Thermal Hog Hunting across Georgia farmland.
Kids Hunting
Night two of this 2-Night Hog Hunt in Georgia wrapped up the trip with exciting action and great energy in the field.
Early in the night, a single hog was located during setup. Although it moved off quickly, patience and persistence paid off, and the Wild Hog was successfully recovered after careful tracking.
Later on, additional sounders were located across nearby farmland. One group moved out before a setup could be completed, but continued scouting led to another sounder entering the area. With good positioning and teamwork, the group was able to make the most of the opportunity, resulting in five successful recoveries.
What made this night especially memorable was the shared experience. Hog SWAT loves seeing families and kids involved in Hog Hunting, learning the process, and being part of an exciting night in the field. These Hog Hunts aren’t just about results — they’re about creating positive memories and introducing the next generation to responsible Nighttime Hog Control.
Night two closed out the Wild Hog Hunt on a high note, finishing the Hunting Trip strong.

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia required adaptability and persistence as conditions changed throughout the night.
Several locations were checked early with limited activity. Later, movement was detected near wooded areas, leading to close-range encounters and multiple setup attempts. After repositioning and reassessing conditions, hogs were located moving into open ground.
A final setup resulted in a successful recovery, closing out the night on a positive note. Despite challenges, strong communication and teamwork made for an enjoyable and productive Hog Hunt.

This 1-Night Hog Hunt in South Georgia delivered steady action and a great experience in the field.
Early in the night, a group of Wild Hogs was located, leading to multiple successful recoveries. After repositioning and continuing to scan additional areas, another sounder was located later in the evening, resulting in further recoveries.
Strong teamwork, positive energy, and consistent movement made this a highly productive one-night Wild Hog Hunt. Nights like this highlight the effectiveness of Thermal Hog Hunting across Georgia farmland.
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.

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Hog SWAT was a perfect example of why persistence is one of the most important parts of Hog Hunting.
The night started slow, with multiple fields checked and limited hog movement early on. Conditions stayed challenging, and as the hours passed without a solid opportunity, patience was tested — something every experienced hunter understands happens on real, no-guarantee Hog Hunts.
Rather than calling it early, Guide Zev made the decision to check one more field. That decision paid off.
Late in the night, a sounder of hogs was located, creating the opportunity the group had been waiting for. The setup came together cleanly, the momentum shifted instantly, and the night finished on a high note.
Hunts like this highlight exactly what thermal hog hunting is about:
staying committed when the night is quiet
trusting the process
and being ready when opportunity finally shows itself
Some nights start fast.
Some nights finish strong.
Both are part of Thermal Hog Hunting.
Another honest one-night Thermal Hunt in the books with Hog SWAT.

Night 1 of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Hog SWAT and Guide Zev started with solid action and a strong opportunity early in the night.
After settling in and getting everyone comfortable with the plan, Zev located a sow traveling with a group of younger hogs. Encounters like this require careful setup, clear communication, and controlled movement to make the most of the opportunity.
The group worked into position and capitalized when the moment presented itself, resulting in four hogs successfully recovered on Night 1. Early-night sounder encounters like this are a great example of how effective Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia can be when hogs are active and conditions line up.
With Night 1 in the books and solid momentum heading into the second night, the group wrapped up knowing there was still more ground to cover and more opportunity ahead.
A productive start to a two-night Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT — and Night 2 was still to come.

This 1-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in Georgia with Hog SWAT and Guide Clay was a strong reminder that Hog Hunting often rewards patience more than speed.
The night began with a couple of challenging stalks. In one instance, the timing simply didn’t come together, and in another, the Wild Hog moved into the trees before the group could fully set up. Situations like this are common when Hunting smart, pressured hogs that rarely stop moving.
Rather than calling it early, Clay continued covering ground and stayed committed well into the early morning hours. That persistence paid off around 4:00 AM, when a sounder was finally located and the group was able to move into position.
The setup came together cleanly, resulting in two hogs successfully recovered — a solid finish after a tough night of hunting. Late-night success like this is what makes Thermal Hog Hunting so rewarding: adapting to the conditions and being ready when the opportunity finally presents itself.
One of the younger hunters also chose to capture the experience with a Hog Hunting Video Package, ensuring the memories from the night will live on long after Hog Hunt ended.
From difficult stalks to a strong late-night finish, this Wild Hog Hunt showed exactly what Hog SWAT is about — honest hunts, real effort, and making the most of every opportunity in the field.
Georgia Hog Hunts
Thermal Hog Hunting doesn’t always happen under perfect darkness. This 2-Night Hog Hunt in Georgia with Hog SWAT and Guide Zev was a textbook example of how adaptability wins Hog Hunts, even when conditions aren’t ideal.
Night 1 – When the Moon Works Against You
Night 1 felt closer to daylight than darkness. With an extremely bright moon overhead, hogs were on high alert. Two different sounders were located, but both reacted early, slipping away at long distances before a clean setup could develop.
Bright nights like this make hogs cautious and movement minimal. Rather than forcing bad opportunities, the decision was made to regroup, rethink the approach, and come back with a different plan for Night 2.
Night 2 – Adjust, Adapt, Execute
Night 2 brought the same bright conditions — but this time, the strategy changed.
Instead of fighting the moonlight, Zev leaned into slow movement, low profiles, and patience. The adjustment worked. A sounder was located, the approach stayed quiet, and the setup came together cleanly despite the visibility.
The result was a successful recovery and a night that wrapped up early — proof that smart tactics can overcome tough conditions.
Why This Hunt Matters
This 2-Night Hog Hunt highlights what Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia is all about:
adapting to moonlight and pressure
changing tactics instead of forcing chances
staying patient until the right moment
Some nights are fast.
Some nights require crawling.
The best hunts reward those who adapt.

Hog SWAT Hog Hunting
This 1-Night Hog Hunt in South Georgia with Hog SWAT and Guide Jordan delivered exactly what makes night hunting so exciting — close encounters, quick decisions, and memorable moments in the field.
The night began with a large sounder spotted at a distance, prompting a long, careful stalk. The approach came together smoothly, but before the group could close the gap, the hogs slipped into the treeline and disappeared — a common outcome when hunting cautious, pressured pigs.
The action picked up shortly after when Jordan spotted a Single Hog while pulling into the next area. The hunters moved quickly, set up cleanly, and made the most of the opportunity.
As the team moved in, another single hog unexpectedly approached, creating a rare back-to-back opportunity. Jordan immediately signaled for another setup, and the group stayed composed as the hog closed distance. After a brief but intense encounter, the hog went down, making for a memorable moment on the Wild Hog Hunt.
Photos were taken, the hogs were processed, and the group continued checking additional ground before wrapping up the night. The Thermal Hunt concluded on a positive note, with the father-and-son duo heading home after a full night of action.
This Hog Hunt was a great example of what Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is all about — adapting to fast-moving animals, staying alert, and capitalizing when opportunities appear.

Night 2: Georgia Boar Hunt
Photo: Is This A Boar Tusk? @HogSWAT lol
Night 2 of this 2-Night Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT came down to one thing: Boar Hunting done the right way.
Boars don’t move like sounders.
They don’t linger.
And they rarely give more than one real opportunity.
On this night, Guide Zev covered ground across South Georgia, checking fields and staying patient until the right hog finally showed itself. Eventually, a Lone Boar stepped out — the kind of pig that makes the long drives and late hours worth it.
Boar Hunting in Georgia is a different game entirely. Mature Boars are solitary, cautious, and incredibly tough. They rely on experience and instinct, often appearing briefly before disappearing just as fast. Finding one requires patience, persistence, and a willingness to put in the miles.
When the opportunity came together, the setup was clean and decisive. The boar was successfully recovered, marking a strong finish to the two-night Hog Hunt and a perfect example of why Thermal Hog Hunting is so effective for targeting smart, elusive boars.
Not every night brings nonstop action — but nights like this remind us why we Wild Hog Hunt.
One pig.
One opportunity.
One solid boar.

2 Night Hog Hunting Trip
Photo: Wild Hog Hunting @HogSWAT
Night 1 of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt with Hog SWAT was all about family, patience, and making memories together. This hunt was a special one — a honeymoon hunt where the whole family came together to experience Georgia Hog Hunting under the stars.
Early in the night, the group spotted a Single Hog out in the field. The setup came together quickly, and the opportunity didn’t last long. With calm coordination and steady teamwork, the hog was successfully recovered right where it stood, giving the night a strong start.
After that early success, the fields stayed quiet. The crew continued checking ground and covering fields, but no additional Wild Hogs appeared for the remainder of the night. Slow nights happen — that’s Hunting — and the group took it all in stride, enjoying the experience and the time together.
At Hog SWAT, it’s not just about the outcome — it’s about sharing the adventure. Nights like this remind us why Wild Hog Hunting in Georgia is such a unique experience: real farmland, real conditions, and real moments with the people you care about.
With Night 2 still ahead, the excitement is far from over. We’ll see what tonight brings.
Georgia Hog Hunting

Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia delivers a different challenge every night, and this Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton was the perfect example of how fast conditions can shift in the fields.
The night began with a Sounder of about Six Hogs, a promising start. But as the team moved into position, the wind turned unexpectedly — one of the biggest factors in Hog Hunting. Wild Hogs rely heavily on scent, and the moment the breeze changed direction, the sounder slipped into the treeline.
All except one.
A Lone Hog stayed out just long enough for Clayton to guide the hunters into a close, clean setup. At roughly 30 yards, the opportunity came together perfectly, and the team made a solid recovery.
After that, the challenge changed from wind… to weather.
A thick, rolling fog settled across the farmland — the kind that makes thermal signatures blur and limits visibility across entire fields. Clayton repositioned multiple times trying to break out of it, but the fog followed all night long. Even with constant scanning and field rotations, no other hogs appeared for the rest of the Wild Hog Hunt.
To top it off, the ground was soft from recent moisture, and at one point Clayton got the van stuck — but in true guide fashion, a little technique and determination got everything moving again.
Nights like this show exactly what True Thermal Hog Hunting is:
Real fields, real conditions, and real adaptability. Some nights are nonstop action, and others are all about patience, smart decisions, and making the most of the few opportunities that appear.
Even with heavy fog and unpredictable wind, the Boar Hunt ended with one solid recovery and a story only a South Georgia night can give you.

Thermal Hog Hunting in South Georgia brings a new challenge every night, and fog is one of the hardest conditions a hunter can face. On this 1 Night Hog Hunt, Guide Jordan navigated shifting visibility, long stalks, and multiple fields to deliver a successful and memorable experience.
The Wild Boar Hunt opened, where light fog limited visibility to about 150–200 yards. Even with the reduced range, Jordan spotted a Single Hog feeding in the center of the field with a pivot directly behind it. Safety always comes first at Hog SWAT, so Jordan patiently waited for the Wild Hog to move out from in front of the equipment before making the approach.
Once the hog cleared the pivot, the team moved in for a clean setup. Which resulting in the first recovery of the night — a 200+ Pound Hog. After photos and field dressing, the crew continued on.
The fog thickened as they moved to the next field, making the field nearly impossible to Hog Hunt. Jordan shifted the plan and headed to another field, where visibility was better. There, he spotted another single hog tucked near a treeline feeding on leftover corn.
The stalk was smooth and controlled. With a perfect lineup, all three connected and — the second recovery of the night. After photos and cleanup, the team continued scanning through the field before checking additional farmland in the next area.
The fog kept rolling in and out, making it difficult to confirm thermal signatures, though Jordan still attempted a cautious stalk just in case. Whatever had been moving in the field slipped into the trees and never reappeared.
A final pass through the next field brought no additional opportunities, closing out the night.
Despite ever-changing visibility, this Boar Hunt was a great example of what makes Hog Hunting in Georgia so dynamic — smart decision-making, patience, and adapting to real conditions in real farmland. Jordan’s guiding was steady and confident, and the hunters handled every stalk perfectly.
Two hogs recovered on a foggy night?
A successful hunt for sure.
We Hog Hunt In ALL Conditions.
Hunting Wild Hogs At Night

Hog Hunting in Georgia isn’t always easy — and this 1-night Hog Hunt with Guide Clayton is the perfect reminder of how smart and unpredictable wild hogs can be.
Midnight Encounter With a Group of Three
Around midnight, Clayton and the hunters located a group of three hogs feeding across an open field. The team made their approach and got into position, but the hogs slipped off the field before the group could make solid connections.
It’s moments like this that show exactly why wild hogs are considered some of the toughest animals in the South. They don’t play by the rules.
Second Opportunity at 3:30 AM
Later in the night, around 3:30 AM, Clayton found another group. The conditions were challenging — the wind kept switching directions, making it difficult to keep from getting winded.
As soon as the hogs caught even the slightest scent, the entire group shifted and moved out fast. Wind is one of the biggest factors in Thermal Hog Hunting, and on this night, it worked against us.
A Tough Night — and a Realistic Look at Hog Hunting
People often think Hog Hunting is easy because of how many hogs are in Georgia. But nights like this show the truth:
Hogs are extremely smart
They have incredible noses
Their skin and bodies are tough
They react instantly to pressure, scent, or sound
When you Hunt Hogs, you gain a whole new respect for just how sharp and adaptable they are.
Even without a big outcome, this 1-night Wild Hog Hunt with Clayton was a great example of real, unscripted Georgia Hog Hunting — where every field teaches you something new.

When you’re Hunting farmland in South Georgia, every field has its own personality — and this group brought plenty of energy to the night. Daniel, our drone pilot, located a Sounder on a field, setting the stage for quick action right out of the gate.
Locating Hogs With the Drone
With the drone up, Daniel spotted a Group of Hogs working through the field. As soon as the hunters moved in, excitement took over. Let’s just say they were ready to go — even if it meant crunching every corn stalk under their boots on the way in.
Because the hogs were already alert from the noise, the team had to take their positions sooner than planned, resulting in longer-distance than we typically prefer.
Connecting With the Hogs
Despite the challenging approach, the group still managed to connect with two hogs, and one of them disappeared into the crop rows. With thick cover and broken stalks everywhere, it was tough to track from the ground alone.
That’s when Daniel stepped up again.
Drone Recovery Success
Our Thermal Drone pilot lifted off, scanned the area, and located the hog quickly — a perfect example of why having aerial thermal support is such a game-changer on these Wild Hog Hunts. The drone allows us to confirm recoveries fast and efficiently, even in corn field conditions.
A Solid Night for a 1-Night Hunt
Between locating hogs early, navigating a rowdy approach, and using the drone to secure a recovery, this 1-Night Hog Hunt delivered plenty of excitement and a strong result for the group.
Another good night in South Georgia with Hog SWAT.
Hunting Under The Northern Lights

Some nights remind us exactly why Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is one of the most unpredictable, exciting experiences you can have outdoors — and last night proved it.
While Guide Max and the team were out training new guides and scanning for coyotes, the sky put on a show no one expected: the Northern Lights Glowing over South Georgia. A rare sight that set the tone for a night full of surprises.
Not long after, a pig stepped out right in front of a coyote we were watching. We immediately called Guide Zev to take over the stalk. He rushed to the field and got set up, but the pig slipped away before he arrived.
A little later, while we were still calling, a Massive Lone Boar emerged. We kept eyes on it and called Zev again. He pulled in quickly — but just as he reached the field, the Boar dipped into a low spot and vanished. Even with Thermals Scanning and Max checking the pivot for elevation, the boar disappeared into the terrain like a shadow.
After a third careful stalk that ended the same way, it was clear:
Some nights, the pigs win.
That’s the reality of Hog Hunting. These animals are sharp, fast, and use every bit of ground to their advantage. It’s not easy — and it’s never guaranteed — but that challenge is what makes Hog SWAT Wild Hog Hunts real. We don’t sit in stands or hunt over bait. We stalk, scan, and adapt in real time.
And even on a night where the pigs stayed one step ahead, the combination of Northern Lights overhead and the excitement of each stalk made it a night worth remembering.
At Hog SWAT, it’s not just about the outcome — it’s about the adventure, the teamwork, the chase, and the rare moments you only see when you’re out there under the South Georgia sky.
Hunting isn't Easy

Every hunter knows the truth — no hunt is guaranteed. And that’s what keeps Hog Hunting in Georgia so real.
On this hunt, Guide Hank covered miles of farmland, scanning and stalking through the night. Conditions were good, but the pigs just weren’t cooperating. At one point, a pig was caught on thermal drone over on 34, but it only stayed in the field for about 20 minutes before disappearing into the dark. Sometimes that’s just how it goes.
The hunters were great — patient, understanding, and appreciative of the work that went into the night. Even without a pig re-homed, they got to experience what Thermal Hog Hunting in Georgia is really like: unpredictable, exciting, and 100% real.
If we sat over bait or waited in stands, sure, it would be easier. But that’s not how Hog SWAT Wild Hog Hunts. We move, we stalk, and we earn every opportunity. That’s what makes the success nights feel so good — because life isn’t easy, and neither is Hunting.
Every Boar Hunt teaches something new, and that’s why we love it. Whether it’s a night full of pigs or one that tests your patience, Hog Hunting is always an adventure worth taking.
At Hog SWAT, we’ll keep doing what we do best — guiding real hunters through real fields in pursuit of Wild Hogs under the Georgia night sky.

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.
