Finally a pair of extra lucky underwear, so I can kill the best buck of my life! Who's the real lucky winner now?

Thanks for putting this all together! Pumped to get drawn for the BA-7 sparrow, was actually going to buy one soon for my 15x binos so this worked out perfect!

PM inbound @robby denning

Perfect! @Wiser Shane said it’s been selling like hot cakes. I got your PM, I’ll get back with you tomorrow.

As always thank you to the rokslide staff and sponsors that make this happen. I definitely evaluate my shooting differently after participating in this challenge every year.

Going to have to break the tip off that knife before you ship it out if he keeps it up.

you're welcome!

So you guys saying we should do this next year?

We ran it 10 years and always wondering if it's ran it's course or if it's truly helping guys know their MER?

Or is it just the great prizes that keep it going?

I think this has dramatically clarified MER for me. And I suspect it's helped a lot of the other guys here, based on the seeming increase in hit rate the last couple years.

Definitely keep it going.

Definitely keep it going! Glad I got to participate and it encouraged me to get my bow out earlier than usual. Congrats to all the winners!

To me when we started everyone that was honest with themselves got a taste of humble pie, so it definitely had an impact. I do wonder if it's became more about the prizes than the process.

If your grandma doesn't hunt and is only shooting 3 shots a year and they all are in the CBC for an extra chance to win a awesome prize, then something is lost in the spirit of the challenge and it loses it's usefulness.

On the other hand I seen a bunch of shots where members used likely hunting senerio's to truly test thier processes like it was a shot on an animal.

I propose we slightly reduce the number that can enter the CBC and those that enter must plan on archery hunting during that year.

Maybe if the grand prize was a couple pairs of Robbie’s used underwear and socks the field would limit itself.

 

[Trumpkin The Dwarf]

I’d shoot it regardless of prizes. Participation would definitely be lower if you did that though.

Bud when you see the luck they bring me this season, we'll have to upgrade the servers on the CBC opening morning to keep the site from crashing. Everyone will be trying to beg, borrow, or steal a pair of those lucky holey drawers.
