The 2013 MHF Turkey Contest is underway, turkey seasons are open in some States; we will not have a signup this year. Instead the contest will be open to all MHF members, must have joined MHF before any State you plan on hunting for the contest opens; this is a simple way of keeping people from joining the site just to enter a nice tom and win.

I will make a separate thread for rules, and another for entries; use this thread for BS, congratulations, etc.

Prizes. In the past people have donated prizes and they were mailed, if the winner wanted them, wasn't always the case. We can still do this, or try something different, possibly for new/younger hunters that could use a few turkey hunting things. I am thinking of putting up a nice call to award to anyone that takes their first turkey with a bow, as an incentive to try it. Any other ideas?

I was thinking along the lines of a call: a Hooks Hootin' stick; more than one person and we'll have a drawing. I donate a charter to charity every year; can't afford to give them away too often, not getting rich doing it. ;)

If anyone wants to donate something else that would be great, maybe for beginner or youth hunters?

That's cool you guys are using BP shotguns, one chance. 8)
