-Scorable antler points are 1 inch in length measured from the base of the point. Fliers, kickers, droptines, etc ARE scorable
-Total score of each hunter will be added up at the end of the contest, highest total score wins
-In the event of a tie, greatest measured inside spread of the entered buck will be the tie breaker


Contest Card
 

With a black marker, make your contest card on a sheet of paper. Write large enough so it can be seen in one of the entry photos. It should include the following

 

At the top, write - 2014 HuntingNY Whitetail Challenge

below that include your screen name, and the date and location of the harvest (WMU)

 

The card must be clearly visible in at least 1 photo of deer or that entry will NOT count.
