Members starting with Fast1, Ballance1, Tricky Ricky for now.
Dang it's been a long summer! Ready to get some floppin goin on!

[rasbo]

leaves me out,cant get a pic with me in it.

[fast1]

Are u just not that photogenic rasbo or what?

[Evil_EdwardO]

River Dogs: Evil_Edwardo and Recon321. We're in the Palouse area and anyone else that wants to join us welcome too.

I'm confused, what does "monthly image" mean?

[KFhunter]

I kind of want to do this but have a few questions on how it all works.

As a free agent, how is a team assigned to that person? 
Do they accept a team invite or are they forced (assigned) to a team by pulling names out of a hat?

How many coyote's killed is the norm for any one team member?  No one wants to be embarrassed if they don't produce enough coyotes for the team, is this a problem? 
Obviously kill as many as possible, but 1-2 coyotes a month?  Or 10+ a week?   
I'd rather see folks learn to hunt coyotes successfully than be pressured to produce maximum coyotes for the team.  This is a fantastic opportunity for people just learning to hunt coyotes to get experience and knowledge from someone who's been doing it a while.

How much time is normal to dedicate to this?  couple hours a week or 20+ hours?



Maybe some others have some questions and are on the fence about joining,  ask away!

[bowhunterty]

Is there a cost to enter?

[KFhunter]

River Dogs: Evil_Edwardo and Recon321. We're in the Palouse area and anyone else that wants to join us welcome too.

I'm confused, what does "monthly image" mean?

A random image that won't be released until the contest starts, you'll have to print it out and include it in your kill shots. Each month will have a new random image.

[KFhunter]

Is there a cost to enter?

nope
just your gas money driving around slaying yotes 

[bowhunterty]

One more question, do they have to be members on this site? Girlfriend hunts with me but not on this site.
