I think that Renfrow's reported score upset a few folks.
I realize this isn't a big contest and their isn't any prizes and we have to rely on people's honesty, but when someone posts a score that looks obviously wrong there should be some way to question it.
In the turkey contest they request showing a ruler next to the beard and spurs to validate the score.
In previous years deer hunting contests most folks listed out their score with G1 3"- , G2 - 9", etc. and that at least showed where they came up with their score and made sure someone didn't add both the inside spread and the outside spread into their reported score or anything like that.
That's the only thing I could think of that might help the contest in the future. Requiring the detailed score to be posted instead of just the final total.
This would also ensure proper scoring as my deer that I entered this year had a larger inside spread than it's longest main beam so I could only count the spread credit equal to the longest main beam and that took a few inches off the score. I think a lot of people would have counted the inside spread regardless of the main beam length.
My 2 cents. Nathan
