Great job Ted!!!! I have only one suggestion. Since most states small game hunting overlaps into the following year, what about having the deadline like at the end of March or Feb. 2008? Like here, some of the best small game hunting is after the first of the year.

Here is a couple of more critters to add if possible.

Pine Marten
Chukar
Pigeon
Prairie Chicken
Rattlesnake

Thanks for the suggestions!

-We are planning on having the contest probably run till March 31st of 08

Thanks for the animals too!! Ill be sure and put them in here.

-Ted

I think we also might need to add hunting to the criteria as well.

Hunting is one of the options. This is for hunters or trappers of any of the animals listed. If you want another animal added, post your recommendation here and we'll consider it.

OK the rules thing just said trapping I didnt no that meant calling as well being as there two different things.

when are we going to start this contest?????? I hope we start it soon

We are still not sure. We are still tlaking about it and working some stuff out.

Hey Ted,
A Pine Marten isnt a bird, its a weazel. It is very popular for trapping here in the Rockys.

Ahh I see!! Sorry about that!! I wasnt sure!!

TEDLEE!! I Still Dont See Any Frogs On There! Im Tellin Ya! You Should Listen To Your Big Sister! I Will Kick Some For Real Butt In This Contest If You Put Frogs On!!

this sounds pretty cool but its kinda unfair in my opinion. most of those animals i can hunt like the bobcat they get 25 points for each one they get and i have to get like triple kills just to make even ....sounds fun but thier are some glitches in this contest....i think everything should be equal kills or .....say a bobcat is 25 points then for every place that doesnt have bobcats u have to have a animal worth equal value so its all fair....thanks for ur time..

Is that any better?

-Ted

I dont think that is a good idea, because everyone know that a bobcat is worth more than a coon

Looks good to me.I think I might get into it.

Same here.

Ill be in it for sure

I think rattle snakes should get a little higher scoring too. We don't have a whole heck of a lot up here, my whole family only go 14 last year. And I can't count all the prairie dogs I shot, I don't think they should be the same worth.

Sounds awesome. I will definately be joining this contest.

what about starlings!!!

I second that

Shot a few, could have a 100 points by now

I 3rd the motion to put starlings in.

no we already set the rules. everything is already underway

I just thought i'd try
Oh well it will still be awesome.

The thing with Starlings are that you can walk out your back door and shoot 100 of them. What are you goin to do with them anyways? Throw them away?

Rules are set and we are underway. Thanks for the suggestion.

When will the teams be picked ? And where will thay be at?

Teams will be picked probably middle of next week... And they will be in this subforum...

I didn't see bear or cougar on there and both are predators. Not sure if its to late to add animals but I would like to see both on there.

if we get something that you dont have on here will you give us points

Nope, its gotta be on the list.

okay just wondering. Thanks

Here is a idea for next year....

Moles????

You trap those

They would have to be like 1 point

anyways just an idea!
