Personally - I like my odds with the Dark Horses. Or a resurrected TeamXX.

Funny thing about this contest is: If you have a guy who shoots a 60" deer, 3 years in a row - he's statisticallymore valuablethan a guy who shoots a 170-class buck and goes 1-for-3. Consistency wins championships.

Now, just off the top of my head, I personallyremember these guys going at least 2-for-3 in the past 3 seasons:

I'm sure I missed a bunch...

There's a lot of discussion on this site about "location." Right or wrong, location might play a pretty big part in the caliber of whitetail you're shooting, but the great thing about this contest is that "location" isn't nearly as much of a factor as is consistency.

The point is: I don't care if you've never killed a 100" deer in your entire life. Hell, there may not be a PY class deer in your entire county. The crux of what I'm saying here is that if you're filling your buck tag every year, you can be on my team anytime.

This is a contest of quantity, not quality - consistency, not location.

Very good point Fran! The team that has the greatest amount of successful members stands a very good chance of winning.

Add Kshunter for me also

1. TDWW
2. Don Kisky
3. Mark Drury
4. Myles Keller
5. Lee Lakowski
6. Stan Potts
7. Bill Winke
8. Don Higgens
9. Diesel77

All these guys are members here and all but 2 of them are going under assumed names. I can't reveal their identities because I've been sworn to secrecy! [:-]

We should be close to busting that 2000 inch mark! Respect!

Greg, wouldn't the required trophy photo for the contest blow their cover.

Mobow is like a one hit wonder, and GMMAT is do to get blanked or go big. Either way will take guts

Is GMMAT planning a trip to the midwest this year or is he feeding the playground deer with mineral impregnated grass clippings?

who is atlasman? i hear stuff on here about him all the time but have never seen him post?
