Contest Rules Poll
 

Should contestants be allowed to submit pictures without the deer, and hunter, and gun in the pictures?
With just the deer?

I tried this poll before, and every one voted for Deer, Gun, and hunter.
But it was after the contest had started, after a few pictures without, the hunter, and gun were posted.
What do you think?

the old way is fine, its fair, and this way i wont have ta buy a cam that has the date in it 8>D
it is hard fer solo hunters to get a pic of themselves with the deer and weapon, but it is what it is.
video's werk too...if you are solo, you can run video of yerself, the weapon and the deer, same as a pic imo.

personally, I think the deer and hunter should be good. Mine was not counted last year because of no gun, thats fine. But there was alot that I seen counted that was just the deer. I just think, whatever rules there are, stick with them all the way.

are you suggesting that you got picked on?
just because you see a pic of a guy and a deer, doesnt mean thats the official pic.
certainly no one willingly counted a deer that wasnt legal...johny law wise or by the rules of the contest.
if you believe a deer was counted, i'd like to just see one plz, bring it to someones attention.
i was online lookin at my bank stuff, and noticed a check from another person made out to themselves...1 number off on the account..had i not brought it to the banks attention, it may have never been fixed.

i like the way its been ran so far, i dont see a need to change the rules now

You are right, I went through the pictures.
And found one that should have not beed counted.
But thats the only one I could see.
You gotta remember that I am human, and make mistakes.
Thats why I put the issue to a vote.
Here are the results so far.
The hunter, deer, and gun in the picture seem to be the one most wanted.
Setting up, and running a contest like this is not as easy as it looks, there are a lot of hours of time taken, working on it,
and mistakes happen.

Just about every camera today has a self timer, so it's very simple to take solo pics. Just about every picture I take of my hunt is when I am by myself. I say just keep the contest the same.

Isn't hunter, deer, and firearm the same category as the old way (hunter,deer, and firearm)?

It is the way it has allways been.
I just wanted to hear what everyones opinion is.
It looks like most every one wants to keep the deer, hunter, and gun in the contest picture.

Deer hunter and gun sounds like the way to go.
I will back up what Jr says about it not being easy to run the contest. lol I did the turkey contest until I finally got someone to take my place Whew!! LOL I passed it along to 2, and now I see they have 3 to run it.

I am happy you put this together. It's alot of fun to see what everyone gets.

+1.... Mine did not count either :confused0024:

self timer or not they were in the pic but the gun wasnt, so solo hunting is not the issue. just a brain fart, we all have them now and again. DEER, HUNTER, GUN is my vote.

I support the rules the way they've been in the past years.

Rules seem fair to me, Hunter, Deer, Gun. Sounds like a great contest. How do we submit a Deer and how is the winner chosen ?

You submit a deer by posting a picture of you, the deer, and the gun.
The winner is from the team total of points from your team.
The points come from the gross score of the buck, and the points for 1 doe per team member.

I think the picture should include the hunter and the weapon with the deer. Unfortunately, there are people who may try to fake a picture, just because they can.

I don't see a big problem with deer, gun and hunter. Someone, somewhere will take the pic for you if you have a camera.

This is exactly how I feel.
