Trophy Talk League turns your hunting camp into a season-long competition. Every sit counts. Log a hunt in three taps — pick your type, snap a photo, save. Hours, weather, public land and harvests all score, and your points post to the camp board instantly. SCORED AGAINST EVERYONE, EVERY WEEK No lopsided head-to-head matchups. Each week you're scored against every other hunter in camp, so your record reflects how you actually stacked up — not who you happened to draw. WEEKLY THEMES A different challenge each week: most hours, earliest sit, longest single hunt, best single hunt, most public land, harshest weather. Bonus points to the winner, so the same hunter doesn't run away with it. RUT PLAYOFFS Top four by season points seed into a bracket during the rut. Everyone else keeps playing for pride and season totals. YEAR-ROUND OR SEASON ONLY Run your camp from opener to close, or all twelve months. Plots, stands, cams, trail work and shed hunts all score, so the board stays alive in the off-season. BUILT FOR THE CAMP Invite your camp with a code Commissioner controls every scoring rule Harvest approval keeps it honest Camp gallery of every photo logged Hunt forecast with GoTime ratings for your spot Shareable weekly recap cards PRIVACY Photos are re-encoded on upload, which strips all embedded metadata including GPS. No photo location coordinates are ever stored. Free this season. No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases.

On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
