    ^^^This is epic...:lmao2:

    A drafting idea sounds cool on the surface, but the problem becomes how are captains selected? And "playing" on 2 teams might be a bit much. If anything, might be kind of cool to just give the draft approach a go in place of the normal to see how it pans out.

    There would be more than two teams. It would be similar to playing fantasy football. Captains could be drawn at random from a pool that want to be a captain.

    What I meant was it would be a bit much to try and keep 2 team threads updated with how your season progress is going for the "Team Players".
    But a random pool of Team Captains isn't bad idea.
    Could also do Team Captain selection based on Top 10 that have scored the most points for, say, the last 3 years combined. Of if you really wanted to push it out, look at most points for the last 5 years combined.

    Isn’t just the broadheads but whole arrow build but the heads are a massive part of it. 200 grain single bevel samurai head by grizzlystik.

    Both of those deer for sure were crazy how they literally stood and bled out almost like they didn’t know. The buck ran from surprise and another deer with him more than anything I sensed.

    That second deer was crazy I edited the short video I uploaded. The thing just stood there for a minute.

    Love this idea, and brought it up before the season began. Safe to say, I would not be drafted unless my effort counted towards anything besides tag soup.

    Team 6 dropped 4 bucks in the last few days should be around 760 by the time they’re all added.

    Okay. I'm not sure how many folks will see this but it's worth a try.

    For the love of God folks, read the rules! TWO PICS of you, the deer and the bow (in the same pic, of course) and the DATE and TIME of the kill. I'm astounded at the number of folks who have been participating in the contest for years who aren't doing this.

    Also, if I ask you for missing pics or missing info that is required by the rules, please be courteous enough to send me a message and let me know you've added the needed info when you do it. I don't have a running list of folks who are missing required pics/info so if you don't let me know it may be a long time before I dig back through and see that you added it.

    I do try to remember who is/was missing pics/info and go back to check but the bigger the scorecard thread gets the more difficult it is to keep track of them all.

    I try hard to stay on top of the scorecard and keep it updated, but I kind of like to hunt too so please try to meet me in the middle and make it a little easier on me.
