On my way into work this morning as I was blasting down I-90 listening to some music I was contemplating life, love, and the Bowhunting.com deer contest. More specifically, the first buck harvested by our own jfergus7. Because this deer is lacking a little bit in the antler department, the final score was in the mid-30's. However, it didn't make much sense to me that a doe would count for more points that a buck, regardless of size. So I have enacted an emergency revision to the Official Rules known as the "Fergie Clause". It simply states that if you harvest a buck that scores less than 50 points, you are given credit for the full 50 points. That is all for now. Keep up the good work everyone, we're killing the heck out of some deer this year and it's only mid-October!
Fergie Clause.... I like it.... We just need him to dress up in a big red suit and deliver bowhunting toys to all the good boys and girls of bowhunting.com
No, I'm not a Fergie listener. What do you take me for?? A skirt-wearing, field-dressing glove owning Nancyboy?? I was jamming out some Motley Crue - Live Wire. :D
Peak and I were discussing the same thing and came to the same idea that 50 ppoints should be awarded. We know Ferg shot the deer because he thought it was a doe and never intended to shoot a buck. I plan to take Ferg to the Raceway after MECHDOC scores his buck there so we can get him a hanger. Thanks for creating the clause Justin, great gesture for sure.
WOW, a ruling named after me! I actually mentioned to Peak while we were dragging him out that it is funny that a doe will outscore my buck!! And the field dressing, skirt & glove wearing moma's boy comment better be intended for Peak! LOL
Hehe, good call Justin, seems only right. Wow, thats pretty special Fergie, naming a rule after you and all : )
Well my friend, you don't just wear a skirt. You wear a full dress AND makeup. Word on the street is that you couldn't man up and gut your own deer!
Don't know that it was a case that I couldn't. I have never done it and had never even seen it done so that would have been a disaster in the making. I think I have a good idea of how to do it next time! And as for the dress and makeup- only on special occassions!
Come on Fergus! Man Law #1 that should be branded on all males at birth states that if you shoot it, you gut it! I shot my first deer at 15 years old and tried to use that excuse to get out of doing the deed. My old man put me in my place and told it like it was. If you want to be a hunter, you gotta learn the hard way. I'm sure Peak could've coached you through it well enough. But hey, I understand if you didn't want to get your hands dirty. After all, you probably had to go drink a few Mike's Hard Cranberry Lemonades when you were done. Didn't want any blood under the nails. :D
You know, I once killed a deer with a tire iron while I was wearing a dress, nylons and heels. Then I went to work, still covered with blood and brain matter. I'm slightly offended by all this skirt wearing = sissy talk.
Think I can find a giant red and black stuffed camoflage suit? Wearing that up in a tree would make a great photo and christmas card!
Bloodborn pathongens so I am still going to wear gloves. Ferg is off the hook here for the man law. I worked all night so I wanted to get in there gut it and get him out quickly as possible. I wanted to be back up by 2:30 to go hunting so next time I will guide him through it. T
