Here are the rules for the contest. If anybody has any questions let me know. Anyone that wants to be a part of the contest can sign up at any time. Just reply to this thread with a simple I'm in or something to that nature.

Contest rules and scoring:
All deer must be taken by legal means during the 2021 / 2022 season.
The number of deer you can submit per season is listed below so please read the scoring list below. You may enter bucks or does. If you kill a better deer later in the season you may upgrade but you MUST say that you are upgrading.
When submitting a deer, you must include:
1. Your screen name
2. Team name
3. If submitting a buck, the number of tines that are longer than 1 inch. If you don't include the number of tines in your submission it will count for 5 points total.
4. Pictures must have the entire deer in the picture. Capes, skull plates, and mounts will not be accepted. The picture must either include you with the deer OR a piece of paper with your screen name, date, and number of points if applicable in the picture with the deer.
If the photo does not show all points, additional photos showing those points will be required. If 1 inch tine length is questionable, supply a photo with a tape measure against the tine for verification.

Scoring for deer will be as follows.

Bow/ Muzzleloader Season
Doe – Each team member's 1st doe is 5 points. Each additional doe is 10 points. Only 5 doe per member can be entered for the combined seasons.
Bucks – 5 points for each buck, plus an additional 1 point for each tine that is 1 inch or longer.

Gun Season
Doe- you will be allowed to enter 1 doe per member during this season for 5 pts.
Buck- you will be allowed to enter 1 buck per member during this season for 10 pts plus tines.
If a member of your team has already tagged out by this season they will be allowed to enter 1 doe in place of the buck for 5 pts.

Bonus points:
1: Youth hunting bonus deer – Each member may enter 1 deer taken by a youth hunter that will not count against the number of deer the member can enter. The youth hunter must be under the age of 16 and the member must be hunting with the youth when the deer is taken. The youth MUST shoot the deer. This is to encourage hunters to take a youth hunting so please be honest.

Youth deer bonus must be submitted with youth in picture

2: each member will get 1 point for posting one selfie of themselves during each hunt they go on. ( To be clear thats 1 per hunt)

3: For every new member that each contestant brings in that posts at least 10 posts yo will receive an additional 5 points. The member must mention that you were the one that brought them here or got them to come back in one post.

I hope everyone has a successful and safe season!!!

Too bad we can't have someone who is in east Tennessee, middle TN and West TN on every team. That would make it equal 😜

Hey @mup: is your daughter going to be hunting this year?
My youngest son will be in every season, we could put Eli, my son and another teen together to go against us. Just an idea.

I doubt it, just hoping to get her out there a time or two at best I'm thinking.

I’m in with the caveat that I have four kids and don’t get to hunt much. Oh and did I mention that I’ll be in CO hunting elk for the major portion of the rut here in TN. I am not a high draft pick but I’ll try to kill something.
