I have to admit this is getting very busy and confusing. I miss the old days of a broken Coleman cooler.
I definitely don't want this to be confusing. I apologize.

The basics:

A Hunt Talk member uses Jabber's Yahoo entry link to create their NCAA bracket.

The person's bracket is used for up to two events:

  1. Every bracket entry is automatically entered into the, "Free For All" event. No entry "fee" required. It has its own set of prizes for the winner.
  2. A person has the option to enter the second event, "Hunt Talk Wildlife Conservation". An entry "fee" is required either by gifting a membership to a friend or family member or a direct donation to an organization.

In order to enter the second event, the person needs to post in this thread the wildlife organization they donated or gifted a membership before the first game begins*

*This allows us to know who qualifies for the second event's 1st - 3rd prize and to spotlight/promote the organization.

Moved the general MM conversation over to this thread:
 
@Sytes is a good salesman. Throwing in an entry for the Conservation bracket with support to the North American Grouse Partnership. The only national group dedicated specifically to native prairie grouse that I’m aware of. Some great partnerships, and advocacy for finding solutions that benefit landowners, working landscapes, and native grouse.



Bracket name is H-Dub’s Bracket

I am in for both. Helped with memberships to Idaho Wildlife Foundation and RMEF. Both great organizations and have done a lot for wildlife and wild places here in Idaho.

So do we need like four more to make the Conservation bracket go?

No one has an org they want to plug?

Beuhler? Beuhler?
 
143 entrants right now, over 200 last year, those setting on the sidelines better jump in soon. We are running out of daylight.
 
I’m in for both even though my bracket is a long shot. I just can’t force myself to pull for Duke and Florida. My donation will go to NWTF. Turkey hunting has become my favorite hunts of the year since I started 4 years ago.
