You aren't going to be that far from me. Typically the hogs love the extra thick stuff. My guess is that since you're new to hunting you won't be super quiet when stalking so I would try to avoid getting back into the thick areas and try to hunt wallows and if possible set up some bait. Not sure of GA rules on baiting but here in FL it's legal on private land. If you can find a decent shooting lane with a clear view of a fresh wallow that would work well or you can try to spread some bait out on the ground a bit on a heavily used path and ambush them there. If you're going to try to truly stalk then hunt the wind and move slower than you think you should be moving. Really look into the area as you walk, a hog covered in mud blends in extremely well, especially in wallows. You can email me at [email protected] if you'd like to ask me any specific questions.
