I see the 2020 deer hunt contest, just wondering if this group throws together any other contests?? Here in BC, can arrow mulies, whitetail, moose, elk or damn near anything... anyone else interested? Maybe a predator contest? For cats, wolves or yotes maybe bears?? Thoughts? And... GO!
I would love it! But where I live on Long Island NY, we have whitetails and turkeys!! Doesn't seem fair! Knock em all dead , good luck this season!
I did a fantasy bow hunting thing with my buddies on the lease last year and created a point system for each type of animal you could kill during the season with a bow. It was pretty fun and winner got $75 to the local archery shop.
I was a member of an Arkansas hunting site for a while and they had a cool contest. It went something like this: Buck: 5 points for each scoreable point Doe: 30 points Turkey: 25 points Coyote: 20 points Raccoon: 15 points Armadillo: 10 points Squirrel: 5 points Chipmunk: 20 points (good luck hitting one) Edit to say: I didn't really participate because I don't normally shoot animals that aren't my primary quarry. (I do make an occasional exception when one really pisses me off.)
This is our format; •doe and spike 50points •hog 40 points •bobcat 100 points • coyote 100 points •squirrel 20 points • rabbit 20 points • coon 20 points •buck will be based off gross score •fox - 100 • any bird 20 (hit counts with no recovery counts as 10) •cougar -250 If you miss or not recover an animal -10 Bonus- double kill on any 50 point animal over a weekend will be worth an extra 50 points.
A few more uploads, a couple beats hanging around, keeping the deer away! Will resolve that very soon!
I was in the stand one morning last season and a big old horned Owl landed on a branch in the next tree over right at eye level to me. He sat there for about an hour just chilling and watching me... It was pretty cool and gave me something to watch since the deer were boycotting that neck of the woods that morning. I like owls so I didn’t shoot him but the “I wonder what he would taste like?” And “I’d really like to try it” thoughts did cross my mind several times.
Tastes like a cross between spotted seal and red tail hawk. Sent from my SM-G960U using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
Probably closer to bald eagle, it is a bird of prey after all Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
