RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

I'm just guessing here, BUT since MOST predator hunting takes place after big game seasons later in the winter, I'll bet there ends up being many more entrants. SO, again, I'm just guessing, unless you close the entries, that there ends up being at least another 20 that sign up later. SO, just thinking ahead, I'd say that 4 man teams and you could end up with 10 teams. SO maybe hold off on picking teams for a little longer and get a better feel on just how many more are going to sign up.
Just an idea?

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

but you have to remember that half the people in this contest will either not show up for long periods, and or totally forget they were in a contest and then there is only one man left on his team. if you do the two man it should be an ave for both man.jmo

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

oo man..I ain't picking teams till november 1......ok 4 man teams it is!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

Just an idea, since there are 20 guyssigned up already that will possibly take predators while big game hunting seasons are going,maybe we can start sooner by doing2 man teams, which would obviously give us 10 teams, and then every time there are 10 more guys that are wanting to participate, you could do a random drawing to place the new 10 guys on the already 10 teams, making them 3 man teams. Then you can just keep expanding the numbers on each team until when ever you decide to end the sign up period.
Just throwing ideas out there! I know I will be doing some calling before Nov. 1st, but really won't get going hard on calling until about Nov. 1st.

Howler has a good plan there. I won't have time to do any calling before December, but I will get out an kill dogs well before that time.

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

Well, how about waiting until Sept. 16th for more sign ups. At that point, you can decide how many teams to create and do the first drawing for teams. Let's say if another 8 guys sign up by then, I'd do a random draw for 10 3 man teams. Then maybe say that Nov. 1st is the dead line to get on a team. SO after 10 more guys sign up, then do a random draw of them and place them on the original 10 teams. SO hypothetically speaking, if a total of 100 guys/gals sign up by Nov. 1st, you'd end up with 10 10 man teams. Make Nov. 1st deadline for sign up.
But the contest could start by Oct. 1st with 10 teams of maybe 3 guys/gals, or more if 10 more people sign up. Just keep the numbers even on each team throughout the sign up period.
As far as ending the contest. I'd say about the end of Feb. or end of March. Most guys are done calling by then.
Just more ideas!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

I agree Howler... Let me edit Rule/Reg.

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

The 16th?? Why not today?? :D

Found this critter this morning. We saw eachother about the same time as I was walking into the field, and he took off. Then he got brave and went up the side of one of the those big "ant hill" looking hills and proceeded to bark F@#K YOU at me.

Well, I barked one back. Over 400 yards away with my AR-15!!

The date on the camera is wrong. Should read 9-2-2007.

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

That is alright. I got a good lead on where there is usually a ton of them. When winter time rolls around, I'll give the new spot a go. Hopefully it will be fruitful and I can give some of you youngins a run for your money.

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

lol

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

So it is final that traps arent allowed? I'm not trying to argue but I dont see how that is fair. Trappers work just as hard for the animal as hunters. It is harder to get a yote in a trap then to shoot one. So I say trapping should be allowed but if you have already made up your mind that works too. But I say this contest should be taking predators in any way that is legial.
Just a though:)

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

most guys voted no traps..sorry!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

Put me on a team that has no chance.... and call us the inevitable winners. :D

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

Sorry guys..It just started letting me post!!! Give me at least another day for teams!!!

Steve....find another guy and you can...must be before 11:30pm Central Time Tonight!!!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

With Steve, it would make 9 teams of 3.....

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

I'll do it if signup is still open.

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

ok..no more Entries...Teams will be up within 2 days!!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

I didn't figure it would take two days to write 30 numbers on paper, throw them in a hat, and draw them out and post the results! Not two days worth of work there![8D]

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

Howler..I have been sick the past couple days and I'm trying to catch up on my school work..I am drawing for teams now...since I have free time!!!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

there will be 7 teams of 4!!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

sign me up too!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

sorry man...teams already out...ur on the list for Alts tho!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

One other question, is the use of dogs permitted in the taking of yotes? They are the weapon!

RE: 07 Predator Only Contest
 

i need some info on yote hunting. i know this is a dumb question, but would a .410 slug be sufficient for a yote? if so what would the max distance you would shoot one with it. also would 20 ga. 7 1/2 shot mess up fur? idk if i could even get a yote within 30yds. but just wonderin. ive never hunted before.
