The rules do not have a start date, so I'm not sure why the end date is not extended to allow for participants from every state to be able to submit a deer later than January 20th. The archery season in my area of PA is open until January 28th. Some states archery season starts a month or so behind others, so I feel everyone should have equal opportunity regradless of when their states season starts and ends. If your season starts earlier than most and ends before the deadline, you have a much better chance than someone who's season starts/ends later. I'm my case I'm only talking about 1 week, but there are other people in different states who are not getting a fair equal opportunity. I know I'm not alone thinking this rule should be changed.
Zink/Rob/Christine: Any feedback on this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Don
