$25.00 recording fee, payable to the Pope and Young Club
I guess that is all it is for records and for production of the book. You answered your question yourself.
2 separate entities.
Of course someone would be mad if they paid and didnt get there service. Common sense sir.

That is what I figured...........so a paid entry doesn't support the nice things that the club does for our sport........it just keeps the book going.

I don't think they should change it at all, it's still difficult no matter where you hunt to kill a 125in (net) buck with a bow.
As far as the $25.00 is concerned, I don't see a problem with it at all. It's well known that the P&Y (as well as B&C) club spend money towards many conservational programs...always have and probably always will. They have set what they think (and many others as well) to be a standard for trophy deer taken with a bow. Getting your name in their book tells all that you have accomplished that feat. Sure there will be those who lie and cheat to get it but you will find that in every record book out there.
It's human nature to show to others what they have done, why do you think people take photos of the deer they shoot?......to share and show to others. Same reason why we have them mounted. I do it because the mounts remind me of the hunt and all that went into it. It reminds me of what a truly magnificent animalWhitetails are ANDit lets me share with anyone who is intersted my accomplishment of that hunt.
The book is no different, it's a way for people to share with others their accomplishment in taking a "trophy caliber" deer.

I guess I don't understand. What difference does it make where the friggin 25.00 goes? It's a Nonprofit Organization that obviously supports conservation, so what's the big deal?
