I have what may be a silly question. The rules state the winner shall be determined by the closest cumulative score. Does that mean all four scores will be added together and then compared to the actual score total? If so, then I can be WAY off on two (or more) of the animals but still win if they cancel each other out? To put in another way, let's say the actual scores (simply for illustrative purposese) are 55, 38, 26, and 14 inches for a total of 133 inches. If I then guess scores of 130, 1, 1, and 1 inch for a total of 133, do I win (or at least tie)? Or is the winner determined by the cumulative sum of the differences in each of the four scores? With my silly example, my scores are off by 75, 37, 25 and 13 inches, respectively, for a cumulative difference of 150 inches (which I would think should be a losing entry). In the long run I guess it doesn't matter, but I would think the winner would have the best estimate on each animal individually. Just my two cents worth - I am still very grateful for the chance to enter and (hopefully!) win. Thanks.

philheise,

Thank you for bringing this up, a truly valid question, I guess I should have been more clear. The contest will be judged on the closest cumulative score of the difference between the actual measurements and each guess. The idea is that the person who wins should have the closest guesses overall...

For example:

Actual Measurements:
animal ONE: 12
animal TWO: 35.25
animal THREE: 70.50


Person 1:
animal ONE: 13 (difference of 1)
animal TWO: 35.75 (difference of 0.50)
animal THREE: 68.50 (difference of 2)
cumulative score of the difference: 3.5

Person 2:
animal ONE: 11.50 (difference of 0.50)
animal TWO: 36.75 (difference of 1.50)
animal THREE: 68.25 (difference of 2.25)
cumulative score of the difference: 4.25

Person 3:
animal ONE: 13.50 (difference of 1.50)
animal TWO: 32 (difference of 3.25)
animal THREE: 70.50 (difference of 0)
cumulative score of the difference: 4.75


The person in this example who would be the winner Person 1... Hope this clarifies things!

Once again good luck to all.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
