We have allowed this in the past. We have kids ourselves, and we know how hard it is to leave them behind when they know you are going calling without them. The future of hunting depends on us passing along the knowledge to our kids. We don’t have a problem with your kids riding around with your team as you hunt. However, they cannot assist your team in any way that gives you an advantage over another team. This includes running out to look for/pick up animals for you.  Follow the same guidelines as the “Landowner Question”.

There is no age limit to register at this time. If the child is registered as a team member, they will be expected to take the polygraph if drawn. Since he/she is not being accused of a crime, there is no need for parental consent to administer the polygraph.

If you need to make changes to your team members, the best way to make them is by using the Contact Us form.  Choose Team Member Change as the Subject, and it will send us an email when you submit the form.  You will also get a confirmation email sent to you. You must include the current team members names, and the names of those which you will be substituting. All changes must be received before 12:00 PM on the Saturday of the contest.

No. If you received confirmation from us that we have your team’s entry form and entry fee, then your team may begin hunting at 12:00 PM on Saturday.  If you registered at Field & Streams, The Outdoorsman, or Texas Gun Shop, you will not receive a confirmation. There is no “Reading of the Rules” or anything like that.
