Author Topic: YOU DECIDE Oct. POM contest (Read 12982 times)

We are going to do something special this month. It has been a relative dead heat between two photos this month between all of the new judges and old. PLUS, some controversy and I believe this will make it fair. Photo number three was submitted prior to the contest closing but was modified in size after the deadline. I initially threw it out, but thought I would include it in this vote and let you choose if that was important or not. It was a sure contender and could have possibly won the contest withhte judges. This poll will run for approx. 24 hours and will decide the winner of this months contest and hat.

As soon as I am capable (not on my work computer) I will attach the three photos for your reference. For now reference the OCtober Photo of the Month Contest thread.
Photo one is Lemondogs Mtn photo
Photo Two is Blackfoots first image of an elk
Photo three is a success photo of a young man by Bucksnort

First 2 were easy to find. By the time I found blackfoots I forgot which was which previously...

8 pages of scrolling. Dont you have a super zapper that can make them appear in this thread?

I will Bob, but I have firewalls at work that won't let me manipulate them. If Rob is on and has nothing better to do, he can sure add them. I just physically can't until I get home.

They were in the wrong order and I didnt want voters getting confused so I put them in Bones original post and removed the others.

I think Lemondogs Mountain photo is probably the best, very close contest.

Well make sure you officially vote for it.

robodad · « **Reply #8 on:** October 29, 2008, 01:45:26 PM »

I voted for that broken down old bull, seems he has a better story to tell then the mountain does !!!

As for the boy with the buck, I think his story is just begining !!! Nice Job !!

270Shooter · « **Reply #9 on:** October 29, 2008, 02:55:50 PM »

they are all really great pics

columbiaman · « **Reply #10 on:** October 29, 2008, 03:53:16 PM »

vote the 2nd one-broken bulls

ThePascoKid · « **Reply #11 on:** October 29, 2008, 04:13:25 PM »

I gotta go with the kid, to me it captures everything october is about, nice bucks, good company, and beautiful scenery.

DeKuma · « **Reply #12 on:** October 29, 2008, 04:19:40 PM »

As much as I love the other two, especially the smile on the kids face, I had to vote Broken Bull. I think we can all relate to that at one time or another, especially as we get older.

Something about that pic just speaks to me of the struggles we go through, and get broken up, solitude, loneliness and yet still majestic..........

Unlike our presidential election, you can't go wrong with any of these three candidates.

popeshawnpaul · « **Reply #15 on:** October 29, 2008, 05:20:40 PM »

The first photo of the mountain has the cool scenery. The second photo of the bull elk has the cool subject. The third photo of the kid/buck has cool scenery and a cool subject in a huge buck. If that's a WA photo...that's my choice.

My only issue would be the vertical composition. However, I'd just be nitpicking...

boneaddict · « **Reply #16 on:** October 29, 2008, 06:14:29 PM »

DAMN, votes are about as tight as with the judges. LOL

Hunting Cowboy · « **Reply #17 on:** October 29, 2008, 06:57:30 PM »

I very much like all three. lemondogs scenary photo is awesome, The elk photo is very nice! But the young man with the buck says October hunting in WA to me so that's my vote.

KillBilly · « **Reply #18 on:** October 29, 2008, 07:41:53 PM »

Thanks Bone for making this available to popular vote. Good job. I got to vote for my favorite now.

LITTLEBUCK · « **Reply #19 on:** October 29, 2008, 08:56:59 PM »

Like them all, but the mountain picture does it for me

huntnphool · « **Reply #20 on:** October 29, 2008, 08:59:36 PM »

I cant believe this, we have over 2000 members and can only get 50 to vote, what is going on here

tmike · « **Reply #21 on:** October 29, 2008, 09:16:59 PM »

For a hunting site #3 is what it is all about.

M_ray · « **Reply #22 on:** October 29, 2008, 09:24:51 PM »

I had to go with the kid too! It reminds me of Oct and what we would all like to see! The other two are great too wish I didn't have to rule them out ... you Mods have a tough job every month!

shanevg · « **Reply #23 on:** October 29, 2008, 09:39:00 PM »

Boy talk about a neck and neck race to the wire!!

Sagedawg · « **Reply #34 on:** October 30, 2008, 11:59:26 AM »

Man Im sure glad Im not one of the judges. These are tough choices as everyone of them are GREAT pictures. With That said Im putting my vote for the little guy and his buck. To me that captures it all. We all remember where we started and to what point when have progressed, this kid is just starting his journey in an obsession that we all share. This is something that he'll never forget.

I'm still trying to figure out what I am going to do when this comes out as a tie. Big rule....NO TIES. LOL Funny that the general forum is as close as the judges. I guess you guys are going to leave it up for me to decide........

Sagedawg · « **Reply #36 on:** October 30, 2008, 12:11:09 PM »

Got the right man for the job, and thats you Bone
