    No sir, actual P&Y gross score.

    1. No, but they must be a posting member on this site.
    2. Yes, first buck only.

    Jaws - I predict a 100 inch buck.
    Rob/PA - I predict a 95 inch buck.
    Justin - I predict a 135 inch buck (hopefully not another big swing/miss :D;))
    Fran - I predict a 108 inch buck.
    Rybo - I predict a 95 inch buck

    That is a total of 533 predicted inches for this team.

    Interesting idea... I'll have to stop by again a little later when I have more time to think it through.

    This may be the most unique & fun contest out there.

    Using the 1st buck makes a big difference IMO

    I need an afternoon to think my team over.

    A quote from me from a different thread:


    "Ok, so my kids are playing around on the internet and find this web site that is like one of those magical 8 balls. You type in a question and it answers. They say "dad, ask it a question" I ask if I will shoot a trophy deer this year. It answers YES. Cool, so I continue to ask for more details. Will it score at least 150? YES is the answer again! So I work my way up the scale and according to the web fortune teller my buck will score somewhere between 185- 190.
    I'm so pumped! "


    You may want to adjust those numbers a little!

    Just a thought. Wouldn't it be wiser to pick 5 people who shoot the first buck they see and give them all a score of 60ish?

    Or better yet pick 5 people who never seem to connect and give them a 0?

    What if they don't score their deer?
    what if they shoot more than 1 buck?

    Or better yet pick 5 people who never seem to connect and give them a 0? Not outlined in the rules.... But, I would amend the rules if someone did that ;)

    What if they don't score their deer? That is part of choosing your team. They are SOL if no score is posted.

    what if they shoot more than 1 buck? Only the first buck counts.

    LOL...I am going to try to find that site and see what it tells me--I bet it will say 51". :)

    Magic, just to test the validity of the test I asked the Magic 8 ball this question..."Will my wife make love with me when she gets home from work?" It said, "my sources say no". HAHAHAHA! The test is valid!

    Has the King(quick) killed a deer over 120''? I see a lot of picks for him +120, is this his year?
