    Am I missing something here? August 24th is a Monday not Friday and the 27th is a Thursday not Monday. That’s in Illinois, don’t know about the rest of the world.
    Fake news???

    Obviously a newb, but just for clarification... can the “bonus” doe be counted for the team before the antlered deer? I’m in KY and can only kill 1 buck and I usually like to smoke a slick head early in the season to increase confidence in myself and equipment. THX

    A doe is a doe, 50 points. It was originally a buck contest that integrated a 50 point bonus for an antlerless kill.

    After that a new clause was implemented that allowed any legal antlered kill, buck or doe, to count as no less than 50 points. 6" of spike or a 45" forkie, 50 points.

    Several years ago the latest adaptation of the rules was made for members/contestants that cannot kill does in their hunt zones to be able to kill a 2nd buck/antlered deer as their bonus deer.

    The caveat to the these rules is an antlerless deer can be killed and entered at any point, but for an antlered deer the first antlered kill is the entry. Kill a 20" forkie in October to restock the freezer and kill a 220" nontypical in November after passing a doe, 2 50 pointers on the scorecard. Only your first antlered kill can get you more than 50 points.

    Used to have multipliers for blacktails and such as well but those have went by the wayside.

    Looks like he may have made a mistake, sent to the wrong user or something. Have you replied to him in the PM?

    Yeah, something weird going on. I can't make sense of the sign up thread around the time Ridge posted :lol:

    My guess is you have a 2nd account and logged in and signed up with that one, maybe UN/PW was saved and logged you in with that one?

    I'd either just sign up with your current account or ask Brad via PM to correct it

    I think we need to get to 200 then draw teams, 194 is kinda hard to divide
