The best of the best can only catch THREE hogs in a weekend? Any one with any ol peice of chit mutt can catch 3 hogs in a weekend. That's not the best of the best by any means. That's just the right people got tired of loosing and have a little pull with the right people.
Not actually. The HDTT is modeled similarly to redfish tournaments. In redfish tournaments, anglers catch lots of fish, sometimes as many as 30 reds a day. Texas Parks & Wildlife daily bag limits allows for each angler to keep 3 reds per person per day. Why don't these redfish tournaments then require each fisherman to weigh-in 3 reds each day???
Because its not about catching the most. It's about catching a few quality over quantity, and having narrow margins of victory.
Suspense..... Excitement..... Competition coming down to the wire!
