Minnesota guys....Did you get Ripley?
 
I am so..................................so bummed! We didn't get drawn for Camp Ripley hunt this year. Did any of you get a permit?

Good Luck!

Didn't you hear about the new one trophy per lifetime rule at ripley? You don't get to go again. Sorry!

I got mine on Wednesday. I'm going over Halloween though, I got an earfull from the wifey on that decision. hehe.

I guess we will have to hunt our own trophies this season, should still be an awsome season, looking forward to it.

Did not even put in for mine this year, my area looks so promising and the application fee just keeps climbing. They make a mint on that hunt!

I didn't get mine Cloud. Hopefully next year. I'm hearing of quite a few guys that applied for the first season that didn't get drawn this year. Guys that almost never got denied for the first season in the past. I wonder if a lot more guys are applying now.

It's $8, you can't beat that anywhere.

The nice thing this year is they are letting you shoot 2 deer. Plus, you can party hunt with the all season tag. So it shouldn't be too hard to leave there with some venison.

I think most people signed up for the first hunt. The second one is pretty late this year and it's over halloween. I'm probably sqrewed next year, I'm 3 for 3 on getting drawn.

I was really looking forward to this year with the new rules. You lucky guys who got drawn will really see some deer. I think the past 10 years or so more and more guys are hunting trophy's only. That doesn't keep the deer moving all day. This year with the extra doe tag lots of guys will be tracking does and generally moveing around all day, that should really keep the deer moving all day.

I'd really like a report from you guys who got in!

Thanks!

Cloud,

Will do! I'm pretty excited about the hunt. There should be a lot of movement, being that close to the rut won't hurt either (I'll be at the 10/30 and 10/31 hunt).

If I remember right you did pretty well outside of ripley's fences last year.

Good luck this year.
