    If " Size Matters" didn't beat us I don't think a new collection will. That entire team was a group of Monster slayers ( #respect)

    Eh, we came close in 2017, just not close enough. It's a heck of a lot funner when you are in contention.

    I'm in favor of having a redo of our 2017 team.

    Close only counts in house shoes, hand grenades and atomic bombs.

    I like less teams. 22 plus the champs sounds great.

    Right now there would be 19 teams. 220 posts to filter through for post count, but seen a few that signed up with too few, but didn't follow their posts afterward.

    Have to see if the alt list is greater than the no shows.

    I’m thinking we wind up at about 20 teams. Being as I’m a snowflake I like the guaranteed top 20 finish.

    I bet we get closer to 25, there's a lot of members who will start showing up once September hits, there will be a secondary rut of sign ups.

    Usually 2 weeks or so for members to check in then alts start being assigned for a week or so before teams are made final.

    Shooting daily which has gone well. I'm ready, but my bucks have pulled a Houdini for about 4 weeks so that's mildly irritating. Not too worried yet. Looking forward to the season.

    Yep I agree with that. I had a bunch of does show up in the past few weeks and I swear that is why the bucks got scarce. Of course that will change soon too.

    Yea we had to read the book, was on required book reading list, one of my buddies read it and said I should. So actually read it first. Reread it couple times, then when they came out with show I bought it. Haveta say wasn't really disappointed with either, usually ones better than other but they're both pretty good.
