Shed Hunting Contest

[catman529]

Seems the idea took off among a few of us in my other thread, so to avoid that thread getting huge here is a new one...

Edit - updated rules

Start date: February 11, 2013
End date: May 13, 2013

Categories:

- Highest scoring shed
- Total number of sheds
- Smallest shed

Rules:

- Sheds only - no skulls or broken-off antlers
- Dogs are allowed
- Measure using B&C system here.
- Must post pic of each shed (something for size reference will help in confirming size/score)

Tennessee only? I think a contest on a TN website should be limited to TN sheds. Let me know if there is a problem with this. I just don't want someone to come in from say Ohio where sheds are huge and plentiful.

Prizes - as of now, bragging rights. Unless someone wants to throw something in for a prize.

Please let me know of any suggestions

I say yes to all three.. Its just a friendly contest so I don't think it really should matter.

like i said.. keep it simple...


a shed is a shed is a shed is a shed

dont matter where u find em or how u get em, let the time limit run thru the end of turkey season since some people like to shed hunt while they turkey hunt.

 

[Hollar Hunter]

No to skulls cause their not sheds.
Any shed counts
Dogs are going to have to count cause Nate and I both will have are dogs always
End of turkey season or whenever be fine with me cause ill quit when the rattlers and copperheads come out cause i ain't getting my dog bit and were covered up with them things!

 

[catman529]

All right ill update the original post with the rules. End of turkey season sounds good, I did find a nice shed last ear while turkey hunting mid to late season.

Dang dogs.

If a dog finds a shed that wins then the prize is a dog treat

Sounds good but no skulls i don't think. That's just me tho lol

Catman-you want me to start a sign up list that can be stickied?

 

[catman529]

Catman-you want me to start a sign up list that can be stickied?

I was gonna do that as soon as we all agree on the rules... Its up to the mods if thy want to sticky it.

 

[Shed Hunter]

Alright. We probably need to give people a few days to sign up.

 

[Shed Hunter]

And we can have everyone who signs up vote on the out of state issue.

 

[nate17]

all of my sheds wont be from tn...but ill be glad to lie to you and tell you they were if that will make u feel better.

 

[catman529]

We should clear the out of state issue first otherwise I won't be able to edit the post once sign up is finished.

How about this - contest starts now, sign up starts now and ends on Feb 28. The sooner you sign up the better and you can't just sign up later after you pick up a 70 inch shed.

Also how about a biggest matching set category?

 

[catman529]

Nate - which state are you in again?

 

[Shed Hunter]

I vote to allow out of state

 

[nate17]

Heres a little motivational pic for u guys...

and here is my shed dog.. better watch out!!

 

[catman529]

After thinking about it, most people on this site are or were from TN and there wouldn't be much a problem with someone from Saskatchewan coming on here and posting monster sheds.... let's allow out of state for those who won't be in TN during shed season.

any other notes? I can go start a new thread soon for sign up and will post the "official" rules on that thread. Anyone in favor of a biggest matching set category? Or just keep it to single sheds?

 

[Shed Hunter]

Have a single, most, and largest matched set. That will be fair.

 

[catman529]

Sounds good.

One last thing... prize... are we just gonna say bragging rights? Or does someone want to throw something in for a prize.

 

[Shed Hunter]

Nice bucket of bones! I've only found 4 (worth keeping anyways) but they were all last year.
