davidmil......staying true to form and that is why I like you! You dont beat around the bush and tell it like it is. No one has asked me about what I think about getting in Pope and Young or Boone and Crocket for that matter.
Well since you have asked here goes......
I do like to know what a buck scores because any logical hunter can get an idea of what type of animal they harvested......purely for referrence. I find it odd to pay to have something in the "records" book. If my brother in law would not of taken the intiative to enter my buck, and pay for it
, I would of never entered my buck. It was his gift for me this Christmas season and I thought it was a great gift. Would I do it........with about 95 percent confirmation I dont think I would go through the hassle because I dont have the drive to jump thru hoops.

I've never put a tape measure on a deer except for the scales. I guess I won't get one in the book will I? LOL As some have said, they all go in my book the minute I shoot them. I don't even have to wait for a drying period.[8D]

The only time I believe you have to pay Is If you want It entered.
ORIGINAL: GregH
I've never paid a cent to get one scored. If someone tries to charge for scoring, they should be reported to the P&Y club.
ORIGINAL: buckeye
An official scorer for P&Y is forbidden to accept money for their service. If someone attempted to charge you, they were not affiliated with the Pope & Young club.
ORIGINAL: mondoman86
They wanted to charge Me to score the deer. I wasn't about to pay someone to score it when My Dad, or Ican do it for free. Nothing against P&Y. I think They are a good organization, but I just don't see the point. I like killing big bucks, but I'd prolly never go pay to get one scored. Thats not what I'm hunting for.

RE: Pope and Young disqualification??
Maybe I misunderstood the guy. He said something about a 25$ fee. I thought He meant to score the deer. He might have meant to have it entered. So it could have been My mistake.
I do a bit of hunting down in Coshocton. In the Wills Creek area.

Actually P&Y bumped up the price this year. It's now $35.00 to have a deer entered. Also,P&Y is offering a special that will get you a 1 year associate membership for an additional $15.00.

Enlighten me on this hassle you speak of. Never has It been a hassle for me. It's actually quite fun and Interesting to talk with an official P&Y scorer. Them folks hear more story's and see more nice bucks because there doing the measuring. Some day I'd love to be a measurer just for that reason.

Schultzy......lets just say it includes actually picking up a pen, completing the form, chucking a stamp on the envelop, making out a check, driving the the post office, and the getting it scored stuff. I AM A REAL GO GETTER..........
