Photo Contest - Coming Soon! **Even More Donated Products**

Postby JohnFitzgerald » 07 16, 2013 •  [Post 1]

As the 2013 hunting season kicks off, make sure to bring your cameras with you into the field. Our good friend CNELK has proposed a 2013 photo contest. So far we've defined two categories with the possibility of more to come.

1) Success Photos
2) In the Field Photos

Elk Outdoor Productions has already pledged some prizes. If any other sponsor would like to pledge more, please PM me.

Rules, voting, and submission details are still to come!

***UPDATE*** We've added a 3rd category called Sponsor Support. In order to submit a photo for this one, the picture must have either a sponsor logo or product in the picture.

***UPDATE 2*** So far, prizes will be given out from ElkNut Outdoor Products and Phelps Game Calls.

***UPDATE 3*** Scott Ward from Caperoll will be the 3rd sponsor to donate a prize.

***UPDATE 4*** Elk Mountain Gear has donated a SLIP System with choice of slipcover

**UPDATE 5** Rudy from Huntography has donated an Elktour DVD, Hat, and Shirt.

Great idea cnelk! Perhaps another category for the photos could be "camp life". Always enjoy seeing everyone's elkwoods "home away from home".

Sounds good! Hopefully I'll be posting one for at least 2 of the 3 categories.

Sounds good to me Cnelk. When it's all over and the meat is gone photos are all we have other than mounts and memories. They're priceless right.

I give full credit to these guys for the video and music idea. They do some outstanding work that is worth watching.
