    Re: Waterfowl Slam?

    How do you guys feel about signature banners ? Lots of other forums use them for fishing contests, big game contests etc.

    I just whipped up a couple rough ones to get your guys opinions.

    I could make 5, one for each category. As well as a combination banner where you could have say 3 of 5 or 2 of 5 etc. on it. And last but most important one for the complete slam

    Hi Fresh,

    First this is a BC only contest. you cant travel to other provinces or states or countries to harvest any of the above.

    The purpose of a bonus duck is because they dont frequent the area and would bea "bonus" if you got one...

    Bonus ducks are not included in the "slam" but used as a tie breakers.

    Hi Lorne,

    I understand it was a BC only shoot. My Slam scenerio is explained better in Dano's, 'How many species have you taken' thread. Currently most groups do have harvestable bonus birds, other than the Sea ducks. But that is BB's list ... divers and sea ducks could be grouped together as Divers, with a bonus list of the harder to harvest ones.

    As I noted in the other thread ... the 25 are doable ... get 5 bonus ducks ... all in BC and that's a SLAM!.
