2013 Hunting Washington Waterfowl Contest!
Rules:
This is an honor system, please keep it fair. Do not use birds your friends shot or the same birds for multiple days. The list of rules and contest details are below. Only the individual or team members birds will count towards there score. Members must be a registered user on the site. If you have a friend, you want to hunt with, get them to sing up and help grow this great site! Ducks and Geese will be scored separate.
Getting registered:
Just post in this contest thread. Choose what area you want to compete in individual or team. A team is 2 members. If you are a youth hunter put a Y after team or individual. You must choose one or the other.
You can form a team or enter the contest as an individual, before and during the season.
SCORING:
New this year!
The bird points will be assigned by a random draw at the end of the hunting season/contest! No one will know what birds score what points! There values will be between 1-10 for each species! The hens of that species will be ½ the value of the drake score.
5 entries per individual or team. Each entry is one day of hunting .From legal shooting light in the morning to the end of legal shooting light that evening. Once you turn in a day’s hunt it uses up one of your 5 entries. You will have to guess what birds/days you want to enter. This year it could be that someone who enters all mallards wins the contest or someone with a big mixed bag wins! It is by luck of the draw this year! You must choose to score a day/birds within 3 days of the hunt.
*To encourage getting new waterfowl hunters into this sport.
There will be a Golden gun award! A separate mini challenge to this contest. Each team/individual will have a space that says GG, which stand for golden gun award points
*This will be given to one team or individual at the end of the competition. That has taken the most new hunters into the field. These hunters must be first time waterfowl hunters. A picture is required to get a point. 1 point per new hunter will be awarded to the individual/team under the GG score.
Duck’s that will count in the contest.

Geese will not be scored in the contest this year. It’s hard to have a winner when everyone is hunting the same type of birds. So we are looking for duck this year!
When you post your birds for scoring:
Ducks: Please list the numbers/types of birds and indicate H: for hen D: for drake.
EX: 4 mallard D, 2 American Widgeon D
Please make sure you post a picture of all the bird. Only birds shown in the photo will be scored for the contest.
This will make things easy for keeping total. A picture is required, of all the birds to be scored. We want to see pictures! We love them!
AWARDS:
Mostly bragging rights and maybe I can hunt a few small prizes down. Hat’s, shirt’s, etc
Here are the categories there will be. There will be 1 overall winner in each of the areas.
Individual Ducks.
Team Ducks
Youth individual Ducks.
Youth team Ducks.
4 winners in all.
+ the Golden Gun Award
*** ALL WASHINGTON HUNTING LAWS MUST BE FOLLOWED.
I will do my best to update this contest as often as possible. Let’s keep this contest fun! Take some new hunters and shoot some birds. Good luck to all!. Anyone that has any questions please send me a personal message and I will be happy to answer all questions.

That would be cool, they could do a drawing and make some $$.... :o Seriously though, they could do a one a year tag or something like that.
