Guess the Score Contest – Feb 2012
Thanks to Bobby Beeman of Gold Canyon, AZ for sharing this awesome buck with us for our contest. Bobby shot this buck in Utah in Sept 2011.
We had about 140 people guess a score on this buck and the top 5 are listed in the table below. Many thanks to Matthew Young (aka JavaCowboy) for writing the code to grab the guesses out of the forum thread. Thank you Matthew, you help make this so much easier!
The top 5 people win a prize (highlighted below in the table).
Winners can choose to receive either a Havalon Knife (Piranta Edge) or a CouesWhitetail.com tshirt. Please email me (amanda@coueswhitetail.com ) with your forum name, real name, and address and which prize you want so I can ship you your prize. Please email me rather than PM me as my inbox gets full too fast! If you would like a tshirt, you can pick a style, color, and size on the tshirt page. I may be out of some sizes/colors/styles, so email me your top two choices for a shirt and make sure you include what size you want.
Congratulations to our winners and thank you to everyone who entered a guess!
