The Owners and Staff of the renowned Los Cazadores Deer Contest the "Worlds Largest Deer Contest" is proud to announce the 1st Annual Los Cazadores North American Deer Contest. This contest will encompass all states in North America where whitetail deer may be harvested and the Canadian Provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Membership in this contest will be separate for each state or province. There will be two awards presented in each state or province as well as two overall awards detailed below. You MUST enter separately in each state or province where you intend on competing.
Membership:
There are two levels of membership: 1) the associate annual membership at an annual cost of $30.00, 2) the special youth membership for 12 years old and under is FREE. Annual memberships are from June 1 through May 31 of the following year; regardless of which date within that twelve months a person may have paid their membership cost. Persons shall register for membership by mail, via the internet, or at our physical location in Pearsall, Texas. Hunters may enter in as many states or provinces as they wish and will be eligible for awards in all the states and provinces they enter.
Registration:
A person is considered officially registered for Los Cazadores membership at the exact time of day and the date that entry form and fee is actually received by Los Cazadores through the mail or in person at a Los Cazadores Headquarters location. If a person submits their registration form through the internet, that person will be eligible for the Los Cazadores North American Deer Contest after six (6) hours have lapsed since the time the person was actually entered into Los Cazadores membership. Actual time of harvest of any wild game that is to be submitted for the hunting contest portion of Los Cazadores must be after the recorded, official, registered entry time and date (except for internet/credit card entrants, in which the six hour "wait period" must have been met). In the event there is a tie for the winner of any of the divisions, the entrant with the earliest registration date will be the winner.
Contest Entry Divisions:
There are two (2) divisions in each state: Best Typical and Best Non-Typical. There are also two overall contest winners.
The "Best Typical Buck" will be awarded to the highest grossing typical buck in the entire state. The "Best Typical Buck" CANNOT have ANY abnormal points to qualify for this category.
The "Best Non-Typical Buck" will be awarded to the highest grossing Non-Typical buck in the entire state. The "Best Non-Typical Buck" can have any number of typical and non-typical points.
Scoring in both categories will be based on a GROSS SCORE.
Overall Contest Winners:
*1st PLACE BEST TYPICAL BUCK*
This "Best All-Around Typical Buck" will be awarded to the highest grossing typical buck for the entire North American contest.
*1st PLACE BEST NON-TYPICAL BUCK*
This "Best All-Around Non-Typical Buck" will be awarded to the highest grossing non-typical buck for the entire North American contest.
Awards:
For Each State or Province there will be one Trophy Jacket awarded to both the Best Typical and Non-Typical Buck.
The two overall winners in the entire North American Contest will receive a Custom Trophy bronze statue of the "official" Los Cazadores logo buck by artist Jim Deutsch.
Scoring the animals:
To enter a trophy in the contest, the antlers of the trophy must be scored by an official Boone & Crockett, Pope & Young or SCI measurer. To enter the buck in the North American Contest the official "signed" score sheet along with a field photo must be mailed or brought to the Los Cazadores Headquarters in Pearsall, Texas.
Winners will be based upon full, gross B&C, P&Y or SCI score. Except for a "full velvet" trophy, no deducts of any kind will be taken from the animal's gross score. If a trophy is measured in "velvet" the score will be reduced by 2 percent to get the "official" Los Cazadores Contest score. If the hunter chooses, he may "scrape the velvet off' and have the antlers re-scored. If the antlers are scraped and re-scored, the "scraped" score will be the official Los Cazadores score.
