how do you run bounty's in your games? my 5e party is likely gonna start the campaign by trying their hands at it.
also what are some of your bounty stories?
Pretty easy. Have an NPC sheriff or a guild factor let the PCs know about the bounties, and let them know to come to them for pay out. Have a few low level guys with small bounties, and maybe one big payout which will eventually lead to a greater story.

Bounty hunting campaigns are great, just make sure the party has some skill-focused character. If you're all playing burly meathead fighters or "explode entire army" wizards, you're not gonna have a very good time.
Bounty hunting works best when you focus on the build-up and investigation aspects. While one or two combat-gods to serve as the "muscle" of the group is nice to have, the real bulk of the early work is going to be left to the charisma characters who can maneuver their way into the seedy underworld of a place, who know who to talk to or bribe or sleep with to get information on someone... or the player who has tracking and stealth skills to tail somebody and start to piece together a bigger picture on how a certain person or group operates, or the Rogue who used to BE that sort of person, ect.

What about being the bounty?
