Default Trail Camera Photo Contest -Post Entries- Buck Bash Kick-off!!

...and so, it begins!!!




2008 NEFGA Buck Bash Kick-off Contest!!








Ok, the actual Buck Bash contests will be start with the opening of archery and youth seasons on Sep 15th. Complete rules will be posted on Sep 1st.

This will be a FREE contest for Nebraska deer hunters.

But for now! - OK, you've asked for it, and here it is!!

We're going to hold a pre-season kick-off contest for our 2008 Buck Bash!



All you trail-cam folks, this one's for you!!

We'll have a trail camera photo contest to kick this thing off!!


Rules: (always with the rules here, right?)

1. Control Item. A NEFGA sticker or fascmile must appear in the photo with the deer in your picture. (extra points if the NEFGA sticker is actually on the deer in the pic)

2. Start date. Entries start at 12:00 a.m., August 23rd. Entries submitted early will be disqualified. Submit your pics in this Buck Bash Kick-off Trail Cam Photo Contest thread only.

3. Close date. The contest will close at 12:00 a.m. on Sep 8th.

4. Photo Contest.The is a photo contest. We're looking for the single best unretouched, unphotoshopped trail camera deer picture you can come up with. This could be a huge buck, it could be a picture of a couple bucks, or a whole herd of deer. The winner(s) will be selected by the NEFGA staff. If you get other critters in your pics, that's cool as long as the NEFGA sticker is there in the pic. Send 'em in. If you get sasquatch or OBG in your nightime pics, please keep them to yourself!

You can enter as many pics as you wish.

5. Control Item. I'm going to throw you all a bone and post a graphic right here of the NEFGA sticker that you can print out and use if you like. If you need stickers, I'll waive the shipping charges this week and sell them for $4 each and 3 for $10 if you let me know you need them for the contest and you submit payment via Paypal. Let me know and I'll invoice you, but you've gotta let me know within the next 48 hours or so for you to receive your stickers before Saturday. (I'll honor that price for anyone for stickers this week, in fact!)

Print this out if you need it for your control item. Either this image or an actual NEFGA sticker must appear stuck to a tree or rock or something in every trail-cam photo you submit!! Please do not staple the control item to OBG and make him stand there all night holding a deer sucker for your picture. This makes OBG surly!






Who loves ya, baby !?

6. Prizes. NEFGA will award a minimum of one $25.00 Cabela's gift card for this contest. If we get tons of interest and tons of great pics, we'll see what we can work out for more prizes. As always, if someone would like to throw down a little challenge and donate a gift card, that would be very cool.

Good luck everyone
and again a big 'thank you' to Cabela's for sponsoring our 2008 NEFGA Buck Bash!!


I'll unlock this thread and on Friday night. Entries start at 12:00 a.m. Saturday, Aug, 23, 2008.
I'm donating a $10.00 Cabela's gift card to the first entry.


The overall winner(s) will be chosen
at the end of this contest with at least
one $25.00 gift card being awarded.

Considering my batteries went dead early this week I still ended up with a few.







The sticker is there, he's just got his head in the way..






The only buck I got on this particular camera, and he ate the sticker off the stick.



Still trying to figure out what this is. Has to be some kind of bird.
