Title: Anyone doing the Riggles Gap Hunt??
Post by: my7pointmonster on February 28, 2012, 01:27:03 AM
Just wondering if anyone is planning to do the Riggles Gap Sportsman's hunt I know I'll be in attendance, hope to hear some of you guys will be as well. Its a small event usually noone even turns in a yoty.

Ryan, I will be hunting but, not doing the contest thing.  I will live thru you on this one. Maybe I will swing by if I am in the neighborhood to see how its going.  Last year very few were checked in.

Yeah, never are many turned in, you know the only reason I do it is to support the club anyhow. Hopefully some of us other guys will have a chance this year with you being out of it.

Ryan, I only checked one last year.  Should have been one or two more if I could have doubled before a switch wind did me dirty lol.  Dang switch wind.  Don't worry I will be out but not in the contest.  The club is nice and Ray and Tim are good people.

Never entered this hunt before, but might do it this year if I can get the weekend opened for hunting.

Ray and Tim are good people man. Cant go wrong. Need to drop their range prices in a bad way though. As well as membership prices. I hope you stay in so some of us other guys have a chance!!! ;)

Hope to see you on the winners board!

Thanks for the good luck. At this point I'll take any luck I can get.

I would love to be in the hunt but just can't make it suit. I saved one of my best spots for a coyote hunt and ended up never hunting there. Lesson learned. Next year I won't save any spots.

I just came across this thread, If I can get my app in the mail, it should make it there in time... I was planning on hunting a little this weekend anyways, and it looks like the wind will actually be cooperative, and though it might be a little bright, at least the moon will be on the way back to new moon...

31 participants, 0 coyotes turned in total pot went to the habitat fund.

Ryan.

"The 6th Annual Coyote Hunt hosted by Blair County Game Fish & Forestry came to a close today with no coyotes turned in. There were 31 hunters registered for a projected payout of $155. With no successful hunters this year, the payout money will be turned over to our Habitat committee to use for lime, fertilizer and seed for our food plots. Thank you for your participation and keep hunting those coyotes!

Maybe next year I will be in the hunt and kill a coyote....I did get a little time to look for sheds on Saturday...found a 5 pt shed and a 3 pt shed on Sunday afternoon....I am more of a buck hunter than coyote hunter right now...have an obsession for collecting antlers...nothing like picking up a 5 pt shed and dreaming of this fall....makes me get the bow out and start practicing a while.
