Bowhunting deer contest
 

My appologies if I missed the post but when do the signups start for the 2009 season contest?

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

I am thinking sometimes in August or Early September.

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Brother, July 15th. I'll be sure to remind ya. ;)

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Whoooo! I'm glad I'm not the only one awaiting sign ups.

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Can I sign up now?????? whats the difference..... I'm going to signup anyhow.

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Rob will have official sign up post. Until he starts it... nobody is signing up for anything. You could try bribing him to start it early. ;) It would probably just be easier waiting a couple more weeks. :D

Thanks guys for the responce.Love the deer contest here,good times,good clean smack talking and a whole lotta fun:D
Whats it goinna take Rob to get me on the list early.?;)
Give me a hand here Tim,if we work together we can get this ball rolling-lol

Would be more then happy to help out if needed

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

How does the contest work? I'm new here...

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Teams are made up randomly of 5-10 members per team,depending on how many sign-ups.The teams will come up with a team name and points are added to members who shoot a deer.The final talley is added up to determine the winning team at the end of the season.The main purpose is to get the most points(meaning the team that shoots more or bigger deer) and to try to beat the returning champs(last years winners)
Its all for bragging rights-lol-and good clean fun.
When Rob posts the sign-ups and rules it will be explained alot better,hopefully this helped clear a few things up

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

hey thanks, it did help clear a few things. so if i sign up then i should try to shoot more deer instead of letting them walk by

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Remember this is just a contest for bragging rights,so why would a person shoot more deer just for a contest when in fact he knows he should have let it walk.
When I said the teams that shoot more deer,say 10 members and all 10 entered one for the contest then they have much better odds of winning then the team that only entered 4.
I have been part of this contest for quite sometime now and let alot of deer walk cause he was to small,knowing he would be much bigger the year later.Only shoot what your confortable shooting,remember its only a contest for fun

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

this is true, plus i would never shoot anything small where i hunt, there is so much potential...

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

I have a question.What counts for the contest, buck and doe or only bucks?

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

The way it has worked in the past, only bucks are counted...NO doe. Only 1 buck per person will be scored and it must be your first buck if you live in a multi buck state. The score is based on the green measurement of your bucks headgear.

Your on your own. We tried whining, begging and sweet talking him in the past years. Nothing has worked !! [:@] Threating will get you banned. [:'(] Trying to bribe him with a new bow is out as he usually has the latest and greatest Bowtech. :eek: A personal visit could get you hurt as he knows Kung fu and is buddies with Matt/Pa. The latter is the real scarey part !! ;) :D

It is just best to wait and get back at him once the contest starts with trash talking. It's a lot of fun and well worth the wait !!
[8D] :D

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Well,I wouldent want to get banned so option 1 is out of the question.I dont whine so #2 is out:D
I may have to re-think this over-lol

Cant wait,always a good time.I am not trying to hurry the process,was just wondering when the sign-ups started so i dont miss it[:o]
Rob has always put a good clean fun contest on in the past and it only gets better every other year-Cant wait:)

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
 

Sounds fun been in the turkey contest the past two years think I will try the deer this year. Can't wait to get some peacefultreestand time with the small sound of a rage finding its mark. Then hopefully a few photo ops soon to follow the shot :) Good luck all.

RE: Bowhunting deer contest
