I did have a question about the rules? You get 5 pts for having a buck on cam that you harvest, what about does? Like I had a doe 2 seasons ago that had no tail on can, I harvested that same doe

Exactly. That's why this is not part of the rules. I've had does that were distinguishable, but it is rare and certainly not as easy as it is with bucks.

I have one without a tail running around. Long story but I have the tail in my shed. lmao

THAT one should count for 10 points right?

Agree its rare but shouldn't such rarities be able to count?
Let's not reinvent the wheel here. The contest has ran smoothly for 3 years without this rule. You already have a chance at 5 bonus points which not everyone will have because not everyone runs cams. Adding the chance for another 5 points skews things even more in favor of the member/team that is running cams.

I'm in!! Does last years champs get a chance to defend the title?

Lol. This comes up every year. We don't want the contest to be "everybody try to beat those guys". We draw the teams at random and everybody goes in the kitty. This way everyone has a chance to end up on the winning team.
