I take living in the south for granted sometimes and forget that it probably seems daunting to just haul tail to Dixie and chase pigs all willy-nilly. If someone is coming from primarily chasing deer and turkey, hog hunting (especially public land) probably looks a little loosey goosey. I would also say that Georgia is likely your best best. I’ve lived on the east side and (currently) the west and each have their virtues. I walk. A lot. Like, a lot. Over east in the low country its as flat as a table top, lots of swamps and marsh, lots of gators. Now ive wandered in swamps at night more than a few times - each time against my will. But... there’s a lot of pigs in there. Over west we have more hills, but you’re walking those hills which can have its own kind of misery in the right circumstances. All I do is wait for the leaves to drop, then follow slow moving creeks and drainages, you’ll find them, its nearly impossible not to. There’s a bunch of Georgia folk here, if you decide you want to wing a self-guided hunt, toss up a flag for the area/region you’re looking at and maybe one of us can give you enough information (and maybe even any help if needed while you’re in town). In my experience, people guard their deer spots and their turkey spots and such, but seldom pig spots. There’s just too many of them and they move so much.
