Guess the Score - Sept 2009

    

Well, here we have a really unique buck taken by Mark Nixon about 20 years ago in Arizona. The goal of this contest was to guess gross score (the score before any deductions) on this buck.  The top 15 people who were closest to the actual score (either high or low) receive a prize. 

Thanks to Mark for letting us use this buck for a contest!

The top 15 guesses are listed below.
If you are one of the top 15 guesses, please email me with your forum name, your real name and mailing address so I can get prizes out to you.

If you won a tshirt, you can select the style/color from this page and then email me with that info and size.  http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/tshirts.htm

Thank you to Zeiss and Outdoor Experience 4 All for donating the Zeiss knives!  And many thanks to Sportsman's Warehouse for donating the certificates.  CouesWhitetail.com is providing the books, DVDs and tshirts.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the contest!
