NOBODY HAS ANY IDEA WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE THIS MONTH LONG SHARK TOURNAMENT HAPPEN. IT''S HARD TO UNDERSTAND THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES TO MAKE ALL THIS HAPPEN . I pay for the food for the Awards party out of pocket and pay for the state park pavillion out of pocket AND I EVEN PAID CLOSE TO $2300 BETWEEN SHIRTS AND HATS MADE BY ONE WAY DESIGN IN HOLLYWOOD FLORIDA. ITS time money and effort it takes alot out of me and my wife. Below are some of the major expense involved with the Big Hammer Challenge. Id love to see someone do a month long tournament but most cant THEY HAVE NO IDEA.THESE ARE JUST THE LARGEST OF THE EXPENSES THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE NOT INCLUDED SUCH AS $300 TO SHARKBOUND RODS TO BE PAID THE DAY OF THE AWARDS PARTY. examine these figures so you can understand that i do this out of love for this sport without making a single dime -my only interest is in doing a good job and promoting our sport .Thank you all for the chance to serve you.
