Who's game?
I got some loot here I could kick in.

Well first, how many Bow Hunters do we have? Enough to justify it?

Hawks Feather · September 02, 2007, 07:15:54 PM

Are you thinking long bows only or are crossbows included?

Troy Walter · September 02, 2007, 08:04:44 PM

What we talking here biggest rack or what?

KySongDog · September 02, 2007, 08:07:41 PM

Or heaviest fawn?

Bills Custom Calls · September 02, 2007, 08:45:45 PM

If I can get some time I would be interested if crossbows are aloud

statelinerut · September 02, 2007, 09:09:39 PM

I'm in. We could have a doe and buck contest. Could go by score on bucks and I dont know how to score the does. Weight I do not think would be a go due to the fact that you guys in IL, KS, and Iowa could take a yearling doe and dwarf our little TN doe's

Time from what.......honey do's and making calls? :roflmao:

I am in Jimbo......whatever.....I have both a compound and a crossbow.

Well.....I'm open to options but I was thinking two categories, One for biggest rack, and one for best photo.
The does and fawns would all fall right into the best photo categories.
The turkey photo contest we had turned out nice and and we ended up with some pretty cool shots.

All entries would be voted on by the membership.

Iam in that sounds good to me,but I don't have a chance on the big rack because we have little deer here in Ohio.

FinsnFur · September 03, 2007, 01:52:31 AM

Bills Custom Calls · September 03, 2007, 04:44:49 AM

studabaka · September 03, 2007, 08:52:29 AM

Good idea..... though Loren already dropped that horned horse and Yoey is tuning his broadheads for elk

are ya thinking just white tails?

FinsnFur · September 03, 2007, 09:07:54 AM

I think it'd be best otherwise they'd have it automatically.
Either that or drop the rack and go strictly photo contest.

keekee · September 03, 2007, 09:22:07 AM

You could have the rack contest for just whitetails, then let the western guys inter there elk and mule deer in the picture contest. Or you could let the picture contest just be Big Game?

I think, cross bows, compounds, and recurve should all be allowed. But you should haft to have the bow in the picture with the animal.

Just a couple ideas.

How long will the contest last because I'm sure every states season dates are different? And how about scoring the racks, Pope & Young or do you have something else in mind. How much money?

blackfish · September 03, 2007, 10:58:13 AM

I am in only if you let us use someone elses equipment,as some of us are less fortunate than others on this board and can not afford the modern equipment that some of you are using and would put us to a disadvantage!

So with that said if Bill or Ohio Bob would let me use one of their Trucks, I should be able to score Big! My wife would not be happy if I would used her truck to harvest abig buck!

Purgatory_Predator_Calls · September 03, 2007, 12:55:22 PM

Sign me up! My season goes into Jan however.

Hell I'll even throw a call into the prize pool.

Yoey

Troy Walter · September 03, 2007, 02:41:57 PM

bnccont Iam from NW Ohio not far from Indiana,Michigan line so we don't have big deer like you do down south.Farm area nothing but corn n little deer.Well ok there are a few big ones.

Hawks Feather · September 03, 2007, 03:09:01 PM

Twalter4,

If you are in Williams County all bets are off. I have seen some of those deer and they are NOT little.
