Default Does in the contest

This is just an idea for the contest. Since I'd bet that most of us hunt where management by taking does is an important part of our responsibility as hunters, maybe we should allow some points for a doe. I've seen this in other online contests

My though would be that only oneDOE counts. No points for button bucks and we give it some small point total, say 25 points or something like that. It would allow pointsfor guys doing the right thing and a team who takes a fair share of does would be recognized for doing so.

That is a great idea, I might get some points this year then.

I'm not sure how this would go over but you might give more than one choice on your poll.

Lol, I would have voted yes, but there's no option for me on the poll.

I'm not saying it's a good or bad idea but I think you should ask Rob as he is the one who has to keep track of all the points. It's already a lot of work to maintain and update the contest.

That would make Rob's work that much harder....probably exceeding PITA status!

This would be a good idea for someone like "Buck Magnet" who will most likely kill a doe that will score higher than his entered buck!


I would like to see a +25 point rating for any buck killed with traditional gear.

I second that motion. Add another +25 points for any injuries occured while recovering said deer

How about fawns with an extra bonus for spots?
