Hunt Contest entries and rules
Tue, 08/23/2011 - 23:10
 
Now that most of the hunting seasons are coming into full swing, we wanted to give everyone a heads up with entering photos for the hunt contest. Any photo submitted for the contest has to have the placard in it, particularly in the hunters hand. It also must legible so we can verify it. We want everyone to have a fair shot at winning prizes and we don't want to disqualify anyone, so please follow the rules. This is from the RULES page: All pictures submitted must show the hunter with the National Bowhunting Championships™ 2011 placard (click to download now) in one hand and his/her bow on or near the animal. The entire animal (not just horns and/or cape) and the bow must be in the picture. ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSES ARE ACCEPTED HERE! THE BOW AND THE PLACARD MUST BE IN THE PICTURE! If either the bow and or placard are not in the picture or are not reasonably distinguishable, then the entry will not count. Pictures must be unedited except for cropping or operations which affect the entire picture (such as brightness, rotation, color, levels, or contrast). Best of luck to everyone and we can't wait to see some more kill photos! Let the arrows fly! |
Am I right in saying that Product Reviews are part of the contest? If so can you explain a little more about that?

Sure thing, Jason. To put it simply, it boils down to this. Gear reviews entered (minus mine or any of the Pro Staff) will be eligible for random monthly drawings for prizes. The Pro Staff will review them all and pick the one we feel is the best one for the month. We encourage anyone and everyone to get in on the gear reviews. Feel free to jump in and post a review!

Cool.. Maybe I am slow but is there a way to embedd video?
Heck, you aren't slow. I have no idea how to embed video. It'd be nice to be able to do. I'll ask the webmaster and see.

I'm thinking the webmasters have to allow this and design a format for us!
TAPPED2 Archery- I came up with a way to think about all of my family while I'm hunting! TessAshleyPaulPenelopeEllaDylanDenisa

The placard reads 2011 not 2012. can you fix it for this years season,please???? i got robbed a chance in 2011 cuz i had no placard but a pic of my nice coues. i know that was my fault for not understanding the rules as a newbe on DIY. its all good. 2012 is going to be good. live to hunt,hunt to live!
The placard is for last years contest (2011). I am not sure if Eric will be doing the contest in 2012. Sorry you got robbed from last year as the contest didn't come to fruition until March.

That which does not kill me
had better run pretty dam fast!
Right now it's because it is a lot of work and with our everyday lives - job, family, etc. - we just haven't been able to put it all together. We really want to, but we'll have to see if we do a variation of it this year.
