Some states only allow a hunter to shoot one deer. The contest must be fair to all
Thenext question iswhat percentage of people would be affectedby their state only allowing one kill? Will that only affect 1-3% of contestants?An answercould be have another contestant on that team be able to shoot two does counting towards the contest to be "fair" (if their state permitted).

Now lets be totally honest here. It's not exactly fair to begin with now is it?
Not to make excuses for other huntersbut those that live and huntin the midwest certainly have a much better chance of scoring more inches than those that live and hunt in deep South, California, etc... A 100" Florida deer is about like shooting a 150" Illinois deer. While it certainly ins't "fair" it is what it is.
While I don't get involved in these contests becauseI have no way of winning against a team of Midwest hunters (I hunt Florida)I personally think does should be "scored" in these contests.
Another good point.
