Buckeye what it does is include some folks that mayhave felt left out. Help people contribute to their team.
We may all talk that it does not matter, but at the end of the contest no one wants to have a blank by their name[

] It justmakes the contest more inclusive IMO.
I took a ZERO in the 2005 contest because I didn't have a shot opportunity at a buck that I was willing to put an arrow thru, one "borderline" buck that I decided to pass on acouple times..... Although I saw "shooter"bucks, even got some big boys on video from my stand I just didn't have the chance to close the door on anything I was willing to put my tag on. Such is life, you can't win them all
I'll gladly take a zero again this year if I do not have a shot opportunity at a buck that "cranks me up".
Does anyone think if a team wins because of a doe it "lessons" their win?
I don't think a doe should possibly be the deciding factor in a "Big Buck Contest" IMO...
