Venado Grande Contest Contest Rules

  • Only whitetail deer legally harvested in Texas are eligible.
  • Deer harvested on high fenced ranches are only eligible for the AntlerMax protein and Best High Fence categories.
  • You may submit the skull or cap for scoring, but we prefer to see the deer intact. It makes a better picture for our entry board and website.
  • Scoring will be from 8 am to 5pm, Monday through Friday. IMPORTANT: Scoring at Temple Feed & Supply will only be available Monday through Wednesday. Scoring at Belton Feed & Supply will only be available Wednesday through Friday. No deer scoring will be available on Saturday at either location. To avoid any inconveniences, please make plans to bring your deer to the appropriate location depending on the day of the week to have it scored. Remember you have all the way until January 31st to bring your deer in to have it scored.
  • Entries will be scored based on gross Boone and Crockett scoring.
  • Entries must be scored by a member of the judging committee from Temple or Belton Feed & Supply. Scores from other deer contests or other official scorers will not be accepted.
  • Once a deer has been scored, it becomes your official entry into the contest. You cannot bring in a bigger deer later to score for that entry.
  • You may enter another buck only if you have paid another entry fee.
  • No drying time is required for antlers; they may be scored “green.”
  • All scoring and decisions made by the judging committee are final.
  • You MUST enter the contest BEFORE your deer is harvested. Phone call, text or e-mail entries will not be accepted.
  • All deer must be presented for scoring by Jan. 31, 2017.
  • Contest winners will be notified by Feb. 15, 2017.
  • You may only win in one category, at the committee’s discretion. You may, however, win in a joint category with another entrant who has not won in a different category.
  • You must be age 15 or younger when your deer is harvested to qualify for the Youth division or the child in the Parent/Child division.
  • Crossbows are not eligible for the Archery Division.
  • Contest will operate on the honor system. Rule-breakers will be disqualified and anyone who breaks state game laws will be reported.
  • Price limits will be set for contest prizes.
  • Contest proceeds will go toward prizes and next year’s contest.
  • By signing up for the contest, the entrant agrees that all pictures taken or submitted of the deer and entrant can be used on websites and in any advertising.
