i know everyone is having fun with the deer hunting contest but maybe if anyone was interested, we can have a small game contest (pretty stupid idea but if anyone wants to, tell me). we can different amounts of points for various small game animals. i would understand if nobody wanted to but its just a thought. i would just like to get involved in a contest since i dont deer hunt.

| Hey I'd be down for a contest like that. I don't bowhunt (yet) so a small game contest sounds like a great idea. How would you wanna set it up? | ||

jex99in00, id set it up into teams just like the deer hunting contest. my idea for scoring would be
male pheasant- x points female pheasant- x points rabbit- x points quail- x points or at least something like that...the scoring would have to be decided among us but i think if enough people wanted to, id definetly work on it! |

HOW ABOUT DUCKS I don't think ducks are small game. They would be considered waterfowl. There's another contest for waterfowlers. __________________ It isn't the catch or the kill that makes for a great outdoor experience but enjoying all that God has created for us.

dont discredit yourself for being young!
I'm sure your capable of constructing a pretty darn good framework for a contest like this.. And everyone here would be willing to contribute to shape your framework into a good contest. I'm going to assume each animal would be worth "x" amount of points depending on species? I dont know how we would accumulate points, number of animals probably is not the best way.. but squirrels and pheasants dont have points (as in antler points) to count

Ok, well....each animal should have a point value. Should it be based on based difficulty? Should we make teams? A few of my friends and I ran a contest among ourselves last year and the scoring system went something like this:
squirrel/woodchuck= 1pt. grouse/woodcock=2pts. pheasant=3pts. That was how we did it, we can adjust it accordingly if anyone has input. Let me know. |

| that scoring looks good to me jex. but you forgot about rabbit. i think rabbit should = 3points.lets see if we can see who wants to join then we can split into teams. | ||

| How should we verify the scoring? Should we do digital pics like the deer contest, or just go on the honor system? | ||

| Ok, so every time you have a successful hunt you should post your results on the site here? Also, when should we officially start? Squirrel season started already, so should we start soon or wait until Pheasant season starts? | ||
