I will be there with a team again this year, thanks for heading this up.

No problem, can't wait!! It'll be here soon!!

Not soon enough I'm ready to go

can't wait

There is an error in the rules. This is not a 27 hour hunt it is a 24 hour hunt. Sorry about that!

TTT

I'm trying to get a team up. We are 20 miles South of Corsicana in Freestone county. We can hunt here as long as we make the weigh in time?

Yes you may

What about mountain lions? Ive got two.that i know.of.on my property i have to get rid off

And the registration time.

Mountain lion would be worth 50 points.

I think I am gonna get a couple of buddies and give this a try? Never done a contest before, should be fun!

MGS, it is a good time!! We have a blast every year. Hope to see ya there!

I will let you know for sure if we are in. Would like to meet some people from the board.

I'll check with the others, but I'm sure we'll have a team there.

One more thing... At the bottom of the posting it says the Tourney will start at 0800. Should be 2000 hrs, right?

John, you're right, the tourney starts at 2000 hours, registration is from 6pm-7pm and the tourney starts after that. Thanks for catching that. I will have the registration forms to fill out there.
