You disqualify yourself. There’s no shooting between days. So pick your poison, turkey hunting or CBC. Are you hunting the whole month of May? Are you saying you can’t find five days in the entire month that you’re not turkey hunting? If so, this contest is not for you this year. Maybe next time.

Thanks for taking the time to look over and respond! Seems fair enough. I'll just have to stick one the first week of May otherwise I'll grab the scatter gun for 5 days.

Thanks for the reference to the other giveaway thread.

And remember, depending on the start date, the challenge is going to run into early June, maybe even in the full first week of June.

Broadheads only?

No, you can shoot field points but you get an extra name in the hat if you shoot broadheads.

If anyone’s post count is over 250 on the day he qualifies , he can get up to four names in the hat if he’s shooting broadheads. That means you as you’re way over 250! If you shot field points, you’d get three names in.

Alright I got some work to do. I’m still tinkering, usually tinkering until August, but I’ll see if I can get everything dialed in!

I don’t know what that is, but for it to qualify in the broadheads category for the extra name in the hat, you have to be shooting into the target exactly what you will be shooting in the animal. If your mechanicals come with a faux point that’s the manufacture says takes the place of the bladed point, we’re only counting that as a field point entry

For us to be able to give the extra entries for the broadheads, I have to draw the line somewhere. And if it gets too complicated trying to figure out equipment, we wouldn’t be able to do it. So I hope this is the fairest way to go.

Yup I was talking about a matched field point type deal. Completely reasonable, just wanted to check.

Hahah. Give ‘em the Win Mag.

I get this same feedback every year, if you get a chance to go hunt hogs go do that! Enter the contest after you’re done hunting, we gave you a month to qualify.



If I get to hunt.......I live 10 mins away from my hog hunting spot in TX aaaaand I just finished up an out of town job so I am on vacation right now...

More like if I decide to give them a break for 5 days.

I think its awesome Rokslide puts this on. I had a blast last year and learned a lot about my form and technique through the process. The worst part for me, is my schedule. I work for 24 hours and then have 48 hours off, so when I make a shot where I rushed it, or at least know my form and shot sequence broke down I have like two days to dwell on it before the next one!

Thanks Robby, and thanks to the sponsors for the prizes. Rokslide is the best, can't wait to do the CBC this year!

Almost like hunting except instead of stewing on it for a day or two, it’s often an entire year before you get another chance.

Looking forward to seeing you in the challenge again. Thanks.

We shot last night. 30, 40, 50. My wife shot a fantastic group at 50. Wonder if this will end up the way of rifle shooting? She is a way better rifle shot than I am.
