Ok folks, I've been trying to come up with a hunting contest for us, and I think I might have something worth trying.
Instead of just a hunting contest, this would be a hunting/fishing/trapping sportsman's challenge. Here's what I have and please let me know what you think and anything you'd like changed/added.
BB&B Outdoorsman of the Year
Entries will be by a picture with some form of BB&B represented, just like the fish of the year contest.
Open to ANY member of the Braggin Board.
Must include the state/country and date with the entry.
Any "questionable" entries will be put up for vote by the members to see if it's allowed.
Only a certain number of entries is allowed for each category, but you may "upgrade" at anytime.
Categories and Scoring
Hunting (trapping is also allowed)
Whitetail Deer - 20 points + 1 point per "antler point"
3 entries allowed
Wild Turkey - 20 points + 1 point per inch of beard (If it has multiple beards, only the longest will be used.)
2 entries allowed
Waterfowl - 10 points + 1 bonus point per bird(up to 5)
1 goose entry and 1 duck entry allowed
Birds/Small game - 10 points + 1 bonus point per bird/animal(up to 5)
1 entry each of pheasant, quail, rabbit, squirrel allowed
Predator/Furbearer(Trapping allowed) - 10 points + 1 bonus point per animal(up to 5)
1 entry each of coyote, fox, raccoon
Bonus animals - 5 points each
1 entry each of any game animal/bird or furbearer not mentioned above.
Fishing (bow fishing, trotlines, nets, jug fishing, etc IS allowed)
Total inches = total points. (must meet legal length requirements.)
1 entry each of;
Largemouth Bass
Smallmouth Bass
Panfish (Bluegill/Redear/Warmouth/Rock Bass)
Crappie
Walleye/Sauger/Saugeye
Salmon/Trout
Carp
Bonus Fish - 5 points
1 entry each of any game fish not mentioned above. (No measurement necessary.)
Snapping turtles and bull frogs may also be entered under "Bonus Fish."
Let me know what you think and any questions! I'm sure I've made it all clear as mud. We'll try to get a little prize pack together again, but it will be mainly for "Braggin Rights."
If you all want to do it, I'll try and get it started this week. I'm thinking of having it run through next 4th of July weekend, that way we can include all the good spring/early summer fishing.
Can you tell I was bored at work today?
