[QUOTE="3Roosters, post: 113172, member: 1351"] Sooo..me and couple buddies were in the man cave drinking some tasty beverages recently. Solving all earthly problems- politics, dog tail docking, rocks on section lines, boat landing do's and don't's, yadda yadda yadda. We were pretty much solving everything as we had plenty of beverages in the fridge to thoroughly discuss each topic. Anywayyyy..fishing tournaments came up...and the prospect of handicapping them. Heck..we handicap everything else..golf, horse racing, etc. So we can up with this utterly brilliant idea haha to handicap fishing tourneys to possibly to get more entrants, especially those with smaller rigs, and it would work like this...stay with me here. haha For this example lets choose Devils Lake as the tourney.. Entrants with say..150HP motors and above would receive Zero additions to their bag limit weight at the end of each day. Those running 125hp-149hp main motor rigs would earn an xtra 1/2 pound to their weight at the end of each day. Those running 100-124 hp rigs would earn an xtra 3/4 pound to their weight at the end of each day. Those running rigs under 100 would earn the maximum 1lb to their weight at the end of each day. As the fridge was emptying we concluded this brilliant haha idea may generate more entrants that don't have speed merchant vessels yet want to compete. Of course playing my own devils advocate says..hey..if you want to get in a tourney..abide by the rules no matter what boat/motor you use. Thoughts? Disclaimer... my rig would earn weight at the end of each day...hahhaa Thanks for reading! Good fishing! [/QUOTE]
