Tournament Rules
1. This year no more than 9 animals will be counted for points. We will have a 5 bobcat cap and a 6 coyote cap. The best score will be 5 bobcats and 4 coyotes.
2. This year you may hunt any where in the state of Texas or Oklahoma; on private land you have permission to hunt on or state land where varmint hunting is legal.
3. This is a calling contest. This year all animals must be called. A called animal is: after you have come to a complete stop and then start calling, an animal comes up that you haven’t seen. Also if you spot an animal you must come to complete stop and wait 20 seconds then start calling and then you may shoot the animal. This year you will be allowed only 3 animals that you see and wait 20 seconds then shoot. The rest must be 100 percent called in. You may not drive, shine the light and be calling at the same time just to locate animals.
4. You may not bait or put out anything or have someone else put out anything for drawing in bobcats or coyotes. If an animal dies on its own and no one moves it you may call or hunt by it. If the landowner moves his dead livestock to an area for his convenience you can hunt by it.
5. When hunting out of a vehicle you must come to a complete stop before you can shoot any animal. No hunting out of boats or planes. Teams must use or hunt out of only one vehicle. Only hunting contestants are allowed in the vehicle while hunting. No four wheelers allowed. Your vehicle must have current tags and an inspection sticker. You may leave a back-up vehicle at gate.
