Some one Tell me please do we Follow Rules or not, I dont care either way I just want to know! Are all the deer submitted for scoring ok or not! Where are our leaders when we need them!

We could take pictures with our license in them, but that wouldn't do trophyhuntr any good, because his deer is being processed. Plus, in GA if you own the land that you hunt you don't have to have a license. Trophyhuntr, correct me if I wrong about that but I think that's right.

RE: LET'S STOP THE CONTEST PROBLEMS NOW!
 

correct i think you get a land owner license

I took my pictures but they didnt show up. They are real dark and you cant see much. And there is no way to get anymore taken. Because the deer has been cleaned and is hanging in the meat house. I didnt know the pics were dark until I got home and put them on my computer. I do have a 2 pics that someone else took but one is just the deer and the other doesnt show the tag or my gun. What do I do. The deer is a nice 9 pt. Here is the pic so you can see the problem.

Hey Annie, I fiddled around with it a little, I think this is as good as I can get it without losing any more picture quality...dont know if it is good enough still?

RE: LET'S STOP THE CONTEST PROBLEMS NOW!
 

thanks for trying jr. I guess I will just have to leave it up to the judges.

RE: LET'S STOP THE CONTEST PROBLEMS NOW!
 

Well looks like a nice buck to me!!

I'm not in the contest so I shouldn't say anything....but. Virginia also doesn't have any tags. In fact we just went to a system similar to GA this year. You have license that has perforated notches and you tear the notch out and can check the deer in or call it in and get a number that you write next to the notch. Much nicer than the old system where you had this little tag that would fall off during the drag because it got wet or snagged. I usually put it inside the deers ear to help keep from loosing it. As a landowner (or child or grandchild of the landowner) you don't even have to buy a license but you still have to check it in or call it in when you kill one.

BTW Annie, always use a fill flash, even in daytime. Takes out shadows and makes colors more vibrant. I take at least 20 shots with my digital camera from all kinds of angles. I only get that chance once and it doesn't cost anything to take a ton of pics on a digital. Congrats anyways.
