Default RE: Contest Numbers ?

ORIGINAL: Matt / PA

Whats crazy is if 10 guys shoot 90" or better bucks, you stand a great chance at winning the whole thing. Really makesyou realize that location does play a huge part. 90" in areas I hunt are very abundant. 90" where Jeff hunts for example probably arent so abundant.
I know and those standards are what kept us from winning last year. 2 of our guys who didn't score passed up 100-125" bucks throughout the season when basically ANY basket racked buck would have won the contest for us..........so it can go both ways I guess.
The good location high standard guys are great when they score but maybe it's better to have 10 consistent 80-100" first good 2.5yr old or best buck for their area types who will put SOMETHING on the ground?

I guess probably an unbeatable team would be one made up of 10 guys who hunt the best spots in the target rich midwest who take the first 100+" buck that walks by?

1000-1200pts would be tough to beat huh?

The nerve of those selfish bastages! What were they thinking!!?? Think of all the awards, prizes and bragging rights they threw away just for some silly, self imposedpersonal standards.

Once you join the prestigeous HNI bowhunting contest, it's not about you anymore, it's about the team!! [:-]
