Hartman made it and that's it. This is one of those events I didn't go with my gut picks but chose to go with my heavily researched picks and that didn't go so well. I wanted to replace Hartman with wheeler on the final day but chose to leave the roster alone, and I also really wanted to pick Feider. Hindsight is 20/20 lol. Looks like we are actually tied at 5th, at 9016. My actual scores have been all over the place but my ranking has stayed pretty consistent since the beginning, between about 5th and 10th in our group, and 90-95% overall. I seem to be hanging in there but can't really "get on a pattern", as it were. My gut said Martens in B and Skeet in C, for some reason. I swapped them out the last day for Lefebre and JVD. Oops again. I have done this sort of thing on at least 4 other events this year and it has almost always been the wrong decision. I keep doing it because I don't believe in gut feelings, lol. Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted July 29, 2017 Super User Posted July 29, 2017 Yeah, I really thought I had keyed into something this season, doing a lot of research on Bassrankings . com and searching out previous results. Some events it's really payed off for me. This time I should have gone with AOY contenders. My picks for Bucket A were Hartman, Wheeler, and Palaniuk but I decided to go with Hartman because of previous experience. Quote
OCdockskipper Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 When Hartman shows up on Sunday with a 24 lb bag featuring a 8lb kicker, both you & I will feel like genius's for choosing him over Palanuik & Wheeler... Quote
CTBassin860 Posted July 30, 2017 Author Posted July 30, 2017 i have Fieder and Palaniuk 2 and 3 right now. 1 Quote

How about Martens with 23lb & a 6-2? Glad I had him as well... Quote

Totally bizarre to me ? Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted July 30, 2017 Super User Posted July 30, 2017 Wow, what a day from A Mart!!! From 19th to 1st! I just realized, I guessed the winning weight exactly! Quote
OCdockskipper Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Martens final day heroics added over 100 points for the owners who had him and it would have been 40 points more if Seth Fieder hadn't snapped him off for Big bass at the end. Chris Zaldain had a 49 point move up, but there weren't any major downfalls for the anglers that our top owners had. Alk402 rode Amart to once again extend his lead while I did the same to jump back over Gundog into second. Gundog slipped to 3rd while NorCal held 4th, both about 80 points away from anyone either ahead or behind them. Jorgaba claimed 5th alone, but has 4 other players within 15 points chasing him for a top five position. Congrats to all, good luck next month!! 1 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted July 30, 2017 Super User Posted July 30, 2017 I have next tourney picked and its not even put up yet . LOL A Hackney B A Jones Sr C Powroznik D Chapman E Clunn Powroznik is out Kennedy is in . 2 Quote
IndianaFinesse Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 I really sucked... And the worst part is that I had an awesome team on Wednesday night, but changed my team on Thursday after rethinking my picks when the firstbdau was cancelled Here's what I had on Wednesday night: Brandon palinuik (3) Aaron martens (1), Stephen Kennedy (17), justin Lucas (25), Jesse Tacoronte (68) Thursday nights team: kvd (69), Dave lefebre (86), skeet Reese (53), Justin Lucas (25), and Jesse Tacoronte (86). I think my original picks were better lol. Had to edit it cause when i posted it, the columns got jumbled. 1 Quote

Super User Senko lover Posted July 31, 2017 Super User Posted July 31, 2017 I would like to point out that, due to an impressive tournament this week on his part, @buzzed bait and I are 7th and 9th in the group, respectively. In case y'all had forgotten, there's always bragging rights on the line but we upped the ante a little bit this year and the loser will be shipping the winner a box of siebert jigs. We're neck to neck for the final tourney. 1 Quote
OCdockskipper Posted July 31, 2017 Posted July 31, 2017 Just now, Senko lover said: ...We're neck to neck for the final tourney. When you look at the leader boards, they show 11 events, so it appears they will include the AOY championship. That will give you 2 more events, not just one. Of course, you have just been toying with him all along... 1 Quote

The joke's on me lmao. Between work and church I didn't get to catch much of Live but both times I tuned in they were talking about it. They must have had a lot of fun with it and I bet Tommy hates them. They sure got me good ? 2 Quote
