I just happened to notice the third to last line in the "Official Rules" thread and was trying to figure out when the new loot was shippin out.:d Scoring system will be as follows: Each participant is allowed to enter ONE antlered deer. This must be the FIRST antlered deer that you harvest during the season. If you are fortunate enough to harvest a 2nd antlered deer, it will not be eligible for this contest. Score will be based on GROSS total score using the P&Y scoring system. All measurements must be listed at time when score is posted. If anyone has any problems with scoring, please ask for help first. I will post a scoring tutorial at the top of the page for those who may need some additional assistance. Mule Deer and Blacktail deer will not have a multiplier for the inches of antler that the animal scores. Whatever the gross score is will count as your final score. Each participant is also allowed to enter ONE antlerless deer as well. Antlerless deer, regardless of size, will count as 50 points. Rules for entry: 1. All deer entered into this contest must be harvested legally within the laws and regulations of the state or province in which it was harvested. 2. All deer entered into this contest must be harvested with archery equipment only. After all, this is bowhunting.com. This includes compound bows, traditional equipment, or crossbows. This also means you can't shoot a deer with a gun and enter it into this contest. 3. All entries must be accompanied by a minimum of TWO (2) photos of the hunter with the deer and your archery equipment in the picture. If you can manage to take one picture, you can also manage to move 4 feet to the side and take another one. It's not that hard. There will be NO exceptions to this rule. Two photos with hunter, deer, and bow in photo or it won't count. This goes for both does as well as bucks. Like Rob, I'm a skeptic. 3a. If you harvest the deer on film and can provide footage of you shooting the animal along with post-recovery footage including hunting, animal, and bow, that will suffice in place of two photos. Footage must be posted online for everyone to see. 4. Along with your photo (or video) you must post the date and time in which the deer was shot as well. 5. Above all else, have fun! Don't change the way you hunt for a contest, no matter where it is. If you see a deer that you want to shoot that is going to make you happy then by all means shoot it. Don't worry about what people will think. We're all bowhunters and we should all support each other's decisions on what type of animals we choose to harvest, regardless of size or age. 6. If a buck's rack scores less than 50 points, a minimum score of 50 will be applied. We will call this the "Fergie Clause". Big Grin (Added 10/14/2008) The winners will be awarded a nice Bowhunting.com gift pack that Todd and I will put together for you. I have no idea what will be in it yet, but I'll do my best to make sure it's nice stuff! If anyone has any questions or concerns about the rules or scoring please post them here, PM me, or e-mail me directly - [email protected] Thanks everyone!
Well, yes I do... but I'm saving those for the Northerners. I'll shoot the coyotes, geese, and quail in the meantime:d
Rules subject to change based on the lousy winners. When we get your official Bowhunting.com skirts made up, we'll ship them out. :D
I don't know bro.... He was saying something about having your personal number at the call center....
I was wondering why he was looking into Bowtoy and I think I have my answer, his long distance flame.:evil:
Picking on Dustin Decroo while he is not here to defend himself is well.... BRILLIANT! Nice move brother
Nice shift of momentum but we all know you and peak have a love that only a Buckeye and Badger can share!
