For Whitetail Deer Only !



I would have to disagree with that.

Here is how scores would be totaled by other deer species, direct from the 2006 contest.

Whitetail score X 1. Example 125 inches X 1 = 125 final score
Columbia Blacktail score X 1.39. Example 125 inches X 1.39= 175.75 final score
Sitka Blacktail score X 1.67. Example 125 inches X 1.37= 208.75 final score
Mule Deer score X 0.86. Example 125 inches X 0.86= 107.5 final score



Plus, I believe the check-in for the teams should be sooner. That'll eliminate a lot of the people with a few posts who sign up and never come back.


Just my .02

What will happen if you are unable to post a picture online? I should have access to a digital camera, but I can't guarantee it.

I did use a scanner, but it's still hard to paste a picture, I usually ask someone else to do it.
