It's been a couple of years since I have had a set in the show.  Used to be scoring was free and you could pick up a couple hours later.  If you wanted in the competition you had to pay $25 bucks and had to wait until Sunday to pick up your rack and get your prize.  I think if you entered the competition and had a score high enough for the record book your entry fee also covered your entry fee into the record book.  Almost all heads that came in 1st-3rd scored high enough for the record book.  Prizes were ribbons and a knife for 1st place in your category.  The bigger prizes like rifles and binocs were for closest to the #1 in the record books for that category by percentage.  Those are tough to win and most of them went to guys with special permits for elk, sheep or goats.

That's how I remember it anyways.

I was just down there.  Website says measured for free, not true.  It cost $10 to have mine measured and if you wanted to enter them in the competition it was $25, $10 to measure and $15 to enter.  Seemed odd to me because all the scorers that I have gone to before didn't charge, conflict of interest getting paid to measure but whatever.

Yes we have, as I recall you have shot "a buck" a "big fella" and a "real dandy".  Can't wait for the chance to shoot one of those three next year.
