Talked to Troy while ago. they are on the way back. I'll just say the rednecks did really good and didn't even get locked up in jail.

Rednecks won by a landslide. We had three trad hunters for gators and one guy had a crossbow and we all tagged out. Troy killed first, then Scott, then Ryan(with crossbow), then me. They all were between six and a half to eight foot. We had a ball the whole time and no animals were safe, on top of gators we managed to kill a gar and bullfrog with trad bows. If you want a rush try shooting a gator at three yards with his mouth wide open in a bad mood. They are tough animals, i shot mine the first time through the neck with a tree shark then tried to follow up with a shot between the eyes and my arrow bounced off and broke with no penetration at all it was like shooting a brick. This is a trip i would take again without question.
