Default Mind drivel.......Bowhunting contest

I know that there was talk, last year, of adding a "filmed hunt" "bonus" (or something similar) to the bowhunting contest. I can also see why that didn't go through......due to the costs likely involved for it to be "fair" to everyone.

I was thinking (i.e. 'mind drivel') this morning......about the possibility of adding bonus points (inches - as that's the criteria we use to score) to each team member's score.....for taking a doe.

I'm not trying to fix what ain't broke......but it would "seem" (to me) that this wouldn't hurt a thing.....and it would serve a dual purpose.

1 - It would help possibly educate some people new to the sport about the importance of actually TAKING does.

2 - It would let those that didn't take a buck, that year, STILL be a helping influence on the overall team score.

Now, admittedly....I haven't thought this through a LOT.....NOR do I have any influence on the contest. It's just "Mind Drivel".

Now I'm also aware that there may be guys who ONLY get one tag, PERIOD. If that's trulythe case.....maybe it's a bad idea from the get-go.

Just thinking......
