Wow!! What a turnout we had for our January 2014 hunt. Total team count was 201. We paid out over $40,000 in cash prizes to the Big Bobcat and Jackpot winners. This one contest paid out almost half of the total prize money for all three of the 2013 hunts. We also gave away some pretty sweet prizes donated by our sponsors. Be sure to check out their websites or establishments to show your appreciation to them for supporting this contest. You’d better get rested up though, because the February 1st WTBBC is less than 3 weeks away, and it’ll be here before we know it.
Online registration is now open for anyone wanting to enter the February contest using PayPal. Teams can still mail in their entry forms with their team’s entry fee, but be sure they get to us BY THURSDAY before the contest. (Money Order or Cashiers Check ONLY. No personal checks, please.) Of course, you can also stop by Field and Streams in San Angelo, Texas any time between now and 12:00 PM on the Saturday of the contest. The entry fee is due when you turn in your entry form. There are NO REFUNDS.
Online registration will close at 12:00 AM, Monday, January 27th (that is Sunday night / Monday morning), to give us time before the contest to transfer the funds from the PayPal account. That is TWO WEEKS from today.
Please don’t wait until the last minute to register. With the contest growing as large as it has been, we simply cannot accommodate all of the requests to get teams registered at the last minute. We feel that we provide plenty of opportunities to enter the contest (Online, In Person, By Mail). The three of us all have jobs, and we try our best to help you guys out, but it is becoming increasingly more difficult to manage all of the last minute requests. Please do us a favor and enter early. If you aren’t quite sure who is going to be on your team, read on.
Remember, if you need to make changes to your team members after you’ve turned in your entry form, it MUST be done in writing so that we have a record of it. An email to wtbbc@hotmail.com or a TEXT message to Jeremy Harrison (325) 277-0214 are the ONLY acceptable methods to add/remove a team member. Your team change request (via email or text) must include all of your original team members’ full names and the name(s) of the person(s) you are adding/removing.
