Title: anyone want to do a g-hog hunt?
Post by: bigben on March 14, 2008, 07:10:10 PM
I was wondering if anyone wanted to do a braggin rights hunt.  maybe make it three classes.  longest shot, longest whistlepig, and most in the season.  maybe run it till the first of october?  start in april?  I was out this afternoon and missed one at 200 yds.  I guess there is a good reason to have a video camara act like your spotter.  went right under him.  is anyone game?

Ben, I'd love to do it but in all reality there isnt many whistle pigs in my area.  I did see one hit with a car today :)


Heck, put me in anyhow, maybe i'll get lucky and find a few this summer.

I have only seen maybe 10 in my life time and have never shot one. I would love to be able to find some and try my hand at them. I enjoy seeing you guy's pics and clips of ground hogs keep them comin :yoyo:

well even with a few of us.  we will just keep posting in this thread.  hunt starts the first of april and goes to the last day of september.  all your state rules apply.  me and a buddy are heading out this saturday to try to get some before pups start showing up.  in the end it means less to hunt but makes happy farmers.  which in the end means previously unhunted fields for fox are open to us for helping the farmers.  even though it is still considered fun.  but we make it sound like work.   :readthis: don't tell them that though.

Maybe Jimbo could pin this at the top of "Other Small Game for us.  :biggrin:

Is there a way maybe to have each individual's  name up & they could keep coming in & changing their tally instead of making new posts?  :shrug:

I got five this summer if you do not count the ones I shot of the front porch with the hmr.  I did not really think there was a bunch of interest so I did not pursue it.  I guess I kinda dropped the ball
