But I just could not get another look at him. With 7 minutes to go I heard fighting in the direction I was tracking him. when I got to 2 minutes left I didn't care, I didn't want to know what I couldn't shoot and claim so I kept it up till the last second and clocked out. All I know is, it was the biggest I have seen in years.
I had some elk fool me. found a couple with 3 up trailing tines - but the spread must have been bad because they just didn't spot high enough to fool with.

Cool comp BC! We gave it all we had but with only 3 mates, we were disadvantaged before we started but that's ok, it didn't effect the effort or the fun!
No disadvantage at all :? . The Captain had enough time to find another wildcard. The "Gold Seekers" pulled it off with 3- they too had the same opportunity to find a wildcard. It was indeed a lot of fun- I was not sure it would be, as I'm not a big MP fan! Surprisingly tho', I did participate in a couple of test servers and finally my last attempt was in MP. It will definitely be a memorable comp for myself, and I hope others too. Even those, that think they were at a disadvantage... no fault of the host or the other participators- that is all on the Team Captains. :roll: :lol: . Respectfully,

BCKidd.

:lol: :lol:
You can do it ! Almost 2 hours left and just 100 points to go ;) Now it's all eyes on you ... but no pressure there 8-) :lol:

@Rad too bad for that Ram but the Mule deer looks real nice.
Edit : looks like splainin found his twin brother :shock:

This competition has Officially ended!
A Big thanks to all the Captains- and their teams!
We all worked for it!
No one is going away from this one empty handed. :D
I'd like to give a shout out to Smokin1, and Splainin'- the two of you are really the stars. ;)
With your Hunter Scores, Tracking and Spotting Skills being less than any other competitor, you competed, and you posted something.
Kudos to both of you! 8-)
I will announce the winners in 90+ minutes.
I have a lot of hunts to analyze, please be patient. ;) Respectfully,
BCKidd.

Yes, she did find the twin - she get a 229 but a skinny one. I wasn't even looking for mules, I was on 3 different herds of elk mixed with a bunch of mules. I had seen a lot of them, excellent tracks too but crap racks - All of a sudden I hear steps, turn and look, and there is the biggest mule rack I've ever seen. It had never never made a sound until the moment I saw it, a personal best for me. I think my best was a 227 back in 2014. Pro-Tip - if you can stick your head through the tines like I did in the photo, it's a big one! :lol: But this gave like 15 points because he was a hearty eater :D

Amazing participation by all here!! Everyone has posted their five attempts, and I'm the last one. Well, I guess it's time this fat lady sang, and it's sad for all. I wish I had something happy to sing about, and everyone else wishes they couldn't hear me sing! :lol:
I was hoping for a nice surprise, but at the end I only had a little over an hour and a half to pull this off. I had even contemplated leaving work early to come home and try for longer (I'm not addicted! :lol:), but work was just too busy today to do that. Mondays are rough! :shock:

congratulations to the winners, these types of competitions are fun and also share a bit of responsibility, although for my team it was not very successful, most of us have had health problems and some had unexpected power outages and others not so unexpected (for the unfortunate instability of that beautiful country), in short, we have fought against all odds, viruses and all kinds of inclement weather and we have lived up to it, which is worthy of admiration for my entire team.
thanks team
greetings to all

Brian thank for memorable comp! Nice job as usual!
Congrats to the winners, you earned it! Good hunting. Agreed we put up a number of leader board animals during this comp.
