Second night was just like the first night. Maybe a few more encounters on hogs and dogs, but ended up with 12 hogs and 2 coyotes over 2 nights. Every night is different and wild hog hunting is completely different then sitting in a fenced in pen. We are 100% free range Spot and Stalk Hog Hunting.

We kicked off Night 1 with precision, securing three single boars through a series of stealthy stalks. Using our AGM Thermal gear, we managed to drop one pig just 70 yards from a massive sounder without alerting the rest of the group—a perfect example of the stealth required for Nighttime Hog Hunting.
The night peaked with a high-stakes stalk on a sounder of 20+ pigs. We successfully maneuvered within 80 yards, and while the team secured another harvest as the group scrambled, we know the potential was there for even more. That’s the thrill of Wild Boar Hunting—even with a perfect approach, the chaos of a large sounder keeps you on your toes.
We ended the first half of this 2 Night Thermal Hog Hunt with 4 pigs down and are ready to get back at it for Night 2!

This Wild Hog Hunt required a lot of scouting as we monitored several fields around Americus, GA. After checking multiple properties and staying patient with a sounder that was playing hard to get, our persistence finally paid off. We moved to a new area and utilized our thermal gear to locate a sounder, where we successfully secured 2 Wild Hogs.
We finished the night checking a few more properties before heading in. We are grateful we got to take these guys out in the field with us. It was a pleasure having them on the Hog Hunt, and we hope they had fun experiencing Thermal Hog Hunting with our Hog Hunting Outfitter in Georgia.

This Thermal Hog Hunt started out with scouting several properties and even having a close encounter with a clever predator during some Coyote Hunting action, the team moved toward the north fields. Which was not successful.
They located a large single Wild Boar and closed the distance to just 70 yards. Despite the adrenaline and a fast-moving target, the team regrouped and headed to our final field of the night. Using our Spot And Stalk Hunting method, we located two Wild Hogs feeding in the open.

Jordan identified a safe shooting window away from nearby structures and gave the team the green light. The coordination was perfect: one pig was secured immediately, and the second was successfully harvested on the run. It was a great way to end a long night of Guided Hog Hunting in South GA. We hope these guys enjoyed there 2 night hog hunt! We hope to have them out again!

This one-night Hog Hunt in Georgia started with guide Jordan checking the first two fields. On the second field he originally saw nothing, but from the top of the van he noticed some very faint signatures about 1,000 yards out. He decided to investigate the far side of the field.
They walked to where the signatures were and were able to spot the tops of pigs. He grabbed the guys and they stalked toward them, finding a group of about 10 pigs at the field edge. They closed to roughly 100 yards and took our first chance — one pig dropped. Two more were picked off on the run. The fourth was an injured pig that settled on the right side of the field; they finished it there. After taking pictures and butchering the pigs, they checked a few more fields and saw nothing.
Next they checked the field northwest of that one, which had been absolutely destroyed by Wild Hogs. They spotted a single pig and took care of business from about 100 yards. Then parked the van between two fields and walked the circular field, where he spotted a lone hog about 800 yards from the van. Jordan brought the team back; only two shooters thistle. They set up at roughly 100 yards and were confident the pig would fall with one chance. The first chance didn’t drop him; he ran toward the woods, but before he reached cover, one hunter made an excellent leading chance and dropped the hog — exactly as Guide Jordan taught: place the outer edge on the nose and lead a running hog correctly.
They took pictures, and checked a few fields and finally headed home. In total, six pigs were taken on this Thermal Hog Hunting trip with Hog S.W.A.T. We hope the guests had a great time and that they’ll come back. Book your Wild Hog Hunt with Hog S.W.A.T. today!
3 NIGHTS OF HOG HUNTING
PHOTO: Thermal Hog Hunts In Georgia @HogSWAT
Spotted a large sounder on an adjacent field to one we Hunt. We knew they were headed our way to tear up a freshly planted field corn field. We waited patiently and after an hour or so they finally started to head over. Property lines and permission to hunt fields is a sacred thing. Harassing hogs on another farmers land is also not permitted. It sucks to do the right thing but the most over looked part about hunting is being patient. We know the hogs are coming out, we just don’t know when. Hogs are unpredictable except for one thing, they need to eat. Grateful to have this father and son duo Hog Hunting with us for the past 3 days. They stacked up 13 with hands on and probably more that made it to the woods.

5 down for the night after checking multiple planted corn fields. Was able to drop 3 on out of 7+ but most of the Hogs were small in that sounder We were able to use the wood line as a back drop to get with in 80 yards. The second encounter we were able to recover 2 out of 15+ with more wounded but making it to the woods. Full moon nights make it easier to stalk in fields, but using terrain and contours of land are a huge part of hunting at night. While most people think hogs can’t see at night you would be shocked at the distances hogs and hunters can see at night.

The night began with a strategic scout of a few fields. After performing a "dirty zero" to ensure all AGM Thermal equipment was perfectly calibrated and conducting a thorough safety briefing, the team moved toward Wilmar.
Spot And Stalk Wild Boar Hunting requires patience, and it paid off at another field. Noah located a large sounder of Wild Hogs moving through the field. Under his leadership, the group successfully engaged the sounder and secured a two-pig harvest. This is a fantastic result for a first solo outing and a testament to the Georgia Hog Hunting skills Noah has mastered.
The Stealth of the Spot And Stalk Wild Hog Hunting
After handling the field prep for the harvest, the team continued their search for hogs. They spotted a solo Wild Boar and began a stealthy approach. They managed to get within 100 yards, but the pig remained alert and eventually retreated into the woodline.
While not every stalk ends in a harvest, the ability to track and get within range of these wary animals is what makes Hog SWAT the top choice for Wild Boar Hunts. Noah’s ability to manage the wind and the terrain shows he is ready to provide our guests with an unforgettable experience.

A 2 Night Hog Hunt In Georgia
Hog Hunting Summary
Lead Guide: Jordan
Hunt Type: 2 Night Hog Hunt
Harvest Total: 2 Wild Boars
Equipment: AGM Thermal
Location: Fields in Americus, Georgia
Photo: Georgia Hog Hunting @HogSWAT
Night 1: The Challenges of Nighttime Hog Hunting
Our first night of this Guided Hog Hunting trip proved why Wild Boars are such respected opponents. We started at Wilmar, where a single pig was spotted near the woodline. Despite a stealthy approach, the shifting winds in South GAmade it difficult to close the distance.
In Thermal Hog Hunting, the wind is everything. We moved to the another Field and located a sounder near a watering hole, but the group caught our scent and retreated. While we had an engagement opportunity near the farm buildings later that night, the tall grass made for a difficult connection. It was a tough reminder that even with the best AGM Thermalgear, the animals sometimes have the upper hand.
Night 2: Securing the Harvest in South GA

The second night of this 2 Night Hog Hunt was a complete turnaround. After scouting a few fields—where we even spotted some Coyotes — we moved to Oscar’s field. Which Hog Hunts sometimes turn into Coyote Hunting.
Photo: Wild Boar Hunting @HogSWAT
Our team spotted a single Wild Boar on the back corner. Because the wind was tricky, Guide Jordan led a massive 700-yard Spot And Stalk to stay downwind. The patience paid off. We moved within 100 yards and successfully secured the harvest. After completing the field prep, we moved to another field where we tracked another single. After a 150-yard stalk, the group successfully got their second boar of the night.
This is why we recommend the multi-night packages; it gives you the best chance for Unlimited Hog Hunting success. Feel free to Learn More About 2 Night Hog Hunts to see why more time in the field leads to better results.

📋 Field Report: Night hog Hunting
Lead Guide: Jordan
Location: Americus, Georgia (Sumter County)
Equipment: AGM Thermal
Outcome: Two Successful Harvests + Multiple Stalks
When people say we offerHog Hunting in Georgia, they’re talking about nights like this. Sometimes the action happens before you even step out of the van, and other times it requires a stealthy, move through the corn.
Immediate Engagement: The 5-Foot Encounter
The night started with a scenario you couldn't script. As we pulled up to the first field, a single was spotted running right toward the van. There was no time for tripods or traditional setups. The group reacted instantly, getting into position just 5 feet from the vehicle.
Thanks to our high-mobility setup, the team was able to secure the first harvest of the night before the engine was even cool. It was a perfect example of why Night Hog Hunts require constant readiness.
Hog Hunting in the Georgia Corn
As the night progressed, the strategy shifted from rapid response to stealth. At a nearby property, Jordan located another single in the middle of a field. This required a complex approach—navigating through the corn rows to ensure a safe shooting angle away from local residences.
While the noise of the corn eventually alerted the target, this stalk demonstrated the discipline required for Wild Boar Hunting near agricultural areas. We prioritize safety and precision, even when it means the target slips away.
The Midnight Hunt Grind: Persistence Pays Off
The middle of the night was a "grind," with Jordan scanning several properties and sitting on fields for up to 40 minutes to track movement. We even had a close encounter with a coyote that ran right up to the van, mirroring our first encounter of the night. Which we do Hunt Coyotes In Georgia.
The breakthrough came at the Israel properties. After a close chance on one field, the team moved to the next set of plantings. Jordan led a 100-yard stalk through the corn, where the hunters stayed composed and successfully dropped a second single on the first chance.
Why the Hog Hunting Experience Matters
While some nights feature massive sounders, others are about the individual stalks and the quiet intensity of the Georgia night. At Hog SWAT, we provide the Best Hog Hunting in Georgia by staying in the field until every opportunity is exhausted. From "drive-by" encounters to deep-field stalks, we ensure our guests experience the full spectrum of the Wild Hog Hunt.
🐗 Frequently Asked Questions: Thermal Night Hog Hunting
How close do you usually get to the Wild Hogs? It varies! We’ve had successful harvests from 50 yards away up to 100+ yards. Our thermal gear allows us to adapt to whatever the animal gives us. Every approach is different, we will get as close as we can. Being spotted by the wild hogs is our main concern.
Is it common to see other wildlife like coyotes? Absolutely. While we focus on Wild Boar Hunting, our thermal frequently pick up coyotes, deer, bobcats, armadillos, and other nocturnal wildlife, making every night a unique South Georgia safari experience.

At Hog SWAT, we believe a great guide is always learning. To ensure our clients always receive the best Hog Hunting Georgia experience, veteran guide Jordan took our newest team member, Noah, out for a tactical training session. The goal was simple: master the terrain, study the wind, and execute high-pressure sounder recoveries.
The night began with a lesson in persistence. After a wary single managed to evade the team by using the shifting winds, Jordan and Noah pivoted to the Chokee property. Here, they located a large sounder and turned the encounter into a tactical classroom. After discussing several approach options, they executed Noah’s plan: a disciplined flank through the timber to mask their scent and silhouette.
The strategy worked perfectly. By hugging the tree line, they closed the distance to just 70 yards. The result? Five successful recoveries from a single sounder. The training didn't stop in the field, either. Noah put in the work on the processing table, demonstrating the 'field-to-table' skills we value at Hog SWAT. This commitment to training ensures that when you book a Wild Boar Hunting trip with us, you are being led by the most prepared guides in the industry.
Wild Hog Hunting
In the world of Hog Hunting Georgia, patience is often the most important piece of gear you can carry. Guide Hank led a group through several hours of diligent scouting across South Georgia, utilizing our advanced Thermal Hog Hunting gear to monitor the fields for any sign of movement.
The early hours were quiet, but as any seasoned Night Hog Hunting pro knows, the woods wake up after midnight. The team finally locked onto a single target, beginning a bold, direct stalk through the darkness. Navigating the uneven terrain of Georgia at night can be a challenge—resulting in a quick tumble for the team—but they stayed focused on the objective.
The group successfully closed the distance and executed a clean recovery, turning a long night of scouting into a 'Great Success.' This trip is a perfect reminder that Wild Boar Hunting isn't just about the shots fired; it’s about the grit and determination to stay in the field until the job is done. At Hog SWAT, we don't head home early—we stay out until we find the action.

When you step into the world of Boar Hunting in Georgia, you quickly learn how unpredictable the environment can be. Our latest outing highlighted the tactical nature of Night Hog Hunting and the importance of professional scouting.
Throughout the evening, we located multiple single targets and small groups of Wild Hogs across various South Georgia fields. These setups required quick decision-making and steady positioning as the hogs continued to shift. In professional Hog Hunting, being able to adapt to these changing conditions in real-time is what leads to a successful harvest.
As the night progressed, our persistence with the Thermal Hunting gear paid off. We located a sounder, allowing Hog SWAT guide Zev to position the group for a solid tactical setup. The precision of our equipment ensured that the encounter resulted in two Wild Hogs successfully recovered.
While not every opportunity ends in a recovery, every moment in the field is an opportunity to master Thermal Hog Hunting equipment and real-time decision-making.

Night two of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in South Georgia continued with steady movement and additional opportunities.
A sounder was located early in the night, leading to another productive setup. One hog was successfully recovered, while additional movement confirmed continued activity across the area.
As the night went on, another group of Wild Hogs was located, producing one more successful recovery before activity slowed.

Nonstop Activity and Multiple Opportunities

Night one of this 2-Night Thermal Hog Hunt in South Georgia was packed with activity from start to finish.
The evening began with extensive scouting across multiple areas, where movement was consistently being picked up throughout the night. Predator activity was observed early on, keeping the group engaged while continuing to cover ground and monitor surrounding fields.
As the night progressed, several opportunities developed across different locations. While some animals moved off before setups could be completed, continued scanning revealed significant hog activity, including multiple sounders detected moving through agricultural areas and along field edges.
Later in the night, a large sounder consisting of dozens of hogs was observed grouped together in an area outside of accessible ground. Although the group remained just out of reach, it confirmed strong overall movement in the area and reinforced the importance of staying mobile.
Despite cold conditions and technical challenges caused by the weather, the team adapted and continued pushing through the night. Additional hog encounters followed, including close-range sightings and multiple stalks through open ground and along tree lines.
While night one didn’t result in recoveries, it was far from slow. The level of activity, number of encounters, and constant movement made it clear that the area was holding Wild Hogs — setting the stage for a strong second night.
Night one wrapped up with momentum heading into the final night of the Hog Hunt.

Even on nights where weather and comfort aren’t on your side, teamwork and patience can still produce strong outcomes. Night one wrapped up as a successful start to the Hog Hunt, setting a positive tone heading into the second night.
