What "hoops"? I've entered 7 with no hoops to jump through, simply got it scored, sent in the form with the money and wala! Entered.

BTW, I purchased one P&Y record book back in 1993 when I had 3 entered, so it's not really so I can look at my name in a book. I do it because I think that the animal deserves it and that I support the P&Y organization.
