Being we are still a democratic society we should hold a vote and let the masses decide if team 8 should be kept together.

I say keep'em together, it'll keep everyone else motivated to hunt hard throughout the season knowing if they win again we'd all have to cancel our SH membership because listening to them and how great they are would be unbearable.
Only way to be the best is to beat the best! Keep em together, no vote, no discussion just plain old king of the mountain. Stands together, falls together! Mwuahaha mwuahahahahahaha mwuahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Want to ask this question up front. Animal must be taken from a saddle. Height is not specific correct? At certain times and conditions, I may find my self at ground level. But like the idea of just sitting in the saddle or sit drag instead of a chair for movement and concealment. Sitting in a saddle is the only requirement?

I’m in, but might not be very useful to my team since the contest ends before rut...
But I do have 3 and a half months to hunt before then.

Official verification needs to come from @redsquirrel but we did have an entry last year from a hunter that was tied in hanging from his saddle at ground level while waiting for a buck to get up out of a bed.

If I’m wearing a saddle and tethered into my steering wheel, does my Toyota count as a legal weapon? Never mind rhetorical question...

If you're hanging in the saddle from a tree on the ground we'll count it. If you're wearing you're saddle while walking through the wood, that doesn't count.

I feel like @Nutterbuster been out scouting some river bottoms that are super flooded from the 10" of rain we've got. Currently driving home in my underwear because my pants and boots are soaked. But good news I found several high spots holding deer and pin oak acorns dropping and deer are pounding... pulled 2 cameras, didn't want to wade the 500 yards to each of the other 2. Wife called and asked me to stop at the grocery store on my way, hopefully just wearing my mask will be sufficient...

I’ve never been in on the contest

Just cast my “I’m in” reply

What are the rules/regulations? Prize?

I personally will send $100 cash to whoever wins this contest

Good luck to all of you!

Very helpful thank you man!

I’m still kicking $100 cash towards the winner

Question about the team though

How do you determine your team?
