Apache7mm Report post Posted February 27, 2006 Any thoughts on a Shed Contest? maybe something along the lines of what the Whitetail contest was with categories related to shed hunting? seems all the sheds posted here on CW are Coues and Elk, it'd be nice to see how big the biggest sheds in AZ and surrounding areas are this year, seems a contest would bring more pictures and knowledge of whats lurking out there in the woods, just a thought, anyone else with any thoughts?

dds Report post Posted February 27, 2006 Dan, I like the idea. Any thoughts on rules, especially with consistent scoring of non-typical antlers and such? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Report post Posted February 27, 2006 First rule should be that Apache7mm and Josh have to wear a patch over one eye and tie both feet together. We just can't compete with those boys! Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apache7mm Report post Posted February 27, 2006 HAHAHA! man i know i got a good kick outta that one, thanks KEVIN, really needed that right about now, actually everyone gets to see or hear of big sheds each year here all over in AZ but i'm more interested to see some HUGE sheds from other places, especially NM, i know they have some monsters out there and to see them sheds would be awesome, as far as rules go, i think maybe brainstorming it first and getting more and more ideas from diff members will help, a few of the things i was thinking of would be... well first off the obvious Highest scoring single, matched, typical and non typical racks. heaviest (lb wise or cir. wise) longest main beam (elk) most # of points ...just to name a few things off the top, any other ideas would be great to hear.

GRONG Report post Posted February 27, 2006 You guys crack me UP!!!!!! Keven that was hilarious! Truth is I only find about one good single or pair about once every 3-5 years. But I'm game. I like the 1st prize of a Dry Lake bull tag about Sept 15th of 2006, sounds good to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apache7mm Report post Posted February 27, 2006 man i really needed that today, some good laughs...i'm with josh on the finding giant sheds, i usually find one good set maybe every 3 yrs, the rest are either busted up or only the single side, i think the biggest set i've ever found would have been about a 380 bull, hoping to find a 400 class set one of these days to get mounted, and i have yet to pick up a good coues set, anyway seems this could be something to look forward to for everyone, i'd really like to see alot of the big racks that go under the radar each year around the diff areas cuz i know some guys pick up some monster sheds all over. categories i'd like to see are... COUES *highest scoring single (typical) *highest scoring set (typical) *highest scoring single (non-typical) *highest scoring set (non-typical) *heaviest (lb wise) *most deformed/unusual *smallest in size (ie. spikes, buttons, etc.) ELK *highest scoring single (typical) *highest scoring set (typical) *highest scoring single (non-typical) *highest scoring set (non-typical) *heaviest (lb wise) *most deformed/unusual *longest main beam thats what i've come up with so far, if someone would like to add throw in your .02 cents, another thing that would have to be a rule i guess would have to be all the antlers entered would have to be from 2006, meaning picked up between now and the contest end.....older sheds would count so long as you actually hauled them out during this contest run. thats all i have so far, more input and thoughts would be nice to hear though, and as far as someone maintaining entries and such, if anyone who has tons of time on their hands would like to take the lead that would be awesome.
