Calling wild hogs requires an understanding of their social behavior and a caller that reproduces the right tones. Effective calls mimic the low, guttural grunts that both boars and sows use to communicate, triggering curiosity and pack investigation. A well-timed grunt can turn a distant sound into a close encounter if used with patience and proper positioning.

PRIMOS HOG is a dedicated hog grunt call that recreates the natural vocalizations of wild swine. The product description notes that hog grunts are made by both boars and sows and that those grunts sound much like a domestic pig. Because wild hogs have a strong pack instinct and a curious nature, the PRIMOS HOG often prompts animals to investigate when used correctly. At a budget-friendly price of $19.99, this call is an accessible tool for hunters, land managers, and hog control professionals. Shop this product

Why the sound profile matters

Hog vocalizations are simple but distinct: low-frequency grunts that can carry through brush. PRIMOS HOG emphasizes that authenticity in tone; callers should reproduce short, intermittent grunts to simulate a single hog or a feeding group. Because the call mimics domestic-pig-like sounds, it exploits curiosity rather than aggression, prompting investigation rather than immediate flight.

How to use PRIMOS HOG effectively

Positioning and timing are key. Use the call from concealed cover with a clear shooting lane or camera placement. Start with soft, spaced grunts to avoid alarming distant hogs, then increase frequency once you pick up movement or fresh sign. The call’s simplicity means it integrates well with predator decoys, bait sites, or during spot-and-stalk approaches.

Tactical tips

– Use wind to your advantage; callers should be downwind when possible.
– Vary grunt cadence: short series for curious approach, single grunts to test wind.
– Combine with observation: listen for responsive snorts and root sounds.
