It is a great idea! But most are field photo's. I know many of ya'll carry enough crap in the woods, that a daily newspaper would be no big thing . But some of us travel light!

Hopefully it's unnecessary, police yourselves and just be honest. Cheaters never win and true winners never cheat.

If anyone has done it in the past contests, shame on you and I hope your conscience eats at you.

I can tell you that I hunt more than40 miles from the nearest newspaper. My check in station is 10 miles from my hunting grounds. No way am I traveling an additional30 miles to get a newspaper and30 miles back.

Although at times, many individuals of HNI act childish...I think we can all act like adults on this issue.

Well said!!! Now its sunday night and no teams posted......... Whats up with that????

I would quit.

Isn't this supposed to be a fun contest?

If people are going to cheat, they're only cheating themselves and they're likely to get busted.

And you're team would thank you. [8D]

Last year that dude got caught. It was stupid of him anyway. If you need to cheat in a just for fun contest you need help.

Holy Crap! Who would cheat for bragging rights? That's insane!!! Then by the time I get close enough to read the local newspaper (which comes out once a week) you wouldn't be able to see the deer. Then to top that off, since the paper comes out on Wednesday, I can only kill on that day?
Anyone who would do that, would be lower than whale crap...and that's on the bottom of the ocean!
I don't think anyone on here would sink that low.

I think you should have to get a notorized letter confirming your kill and score of course date and time stamped.

Seriously, when I entered the contest, this was a concern of mine and I even PM'd Rob about it suggesting a pic be requiredof the legible registration tag. He told me not to fret about it and i realized I was doing just that.

If you have to cheat for net cred then you're just a _ _ _ _ _.

And even if you do get away with it, it's still not enough to beat my yet to be determined team. Go ahead cheat, see if it helps.
