Maybe it doesn't, but it DOES support conservation.
I just don't see where having your name in a book makes your accomplishment any greater.

It's easy Atlas........They can say that your $25.00 donation goes toward conservation as long as only one penny of that does. That meansfor every $100,000.00they earn infees from book names, as long as at least $1,000.00 is spent onconservation they can say this. Don't get book keeping confused with buisness. Yes they keep track of how the money is generated, but it is deposited into a general fund for expenditures. The % game they play is for the lawyers so they CAN say that your money goes to conservation.
The bottom line is they give to good causes so supporting an organization like the P&Y club is not a bad thing and even those who only give to have their names in a book still support a worthy organization.
Gotta run will check back an a few hours!

So how many people have ever joined the club just to support conservation, and not have their name putin the book?
BTW I don't know where the money goes, nor do I care. They could take it to the local strip club for all I care.

Being a member of the club and entering an animal is two different things. Membership dues do not put your name in a book. You do not have to be a member to enter an animal into their records.
I don't know how many names are in the book, but if it is over 800 pages it is not a very elite group.

RE: Time to raise score to qualify for P&Y?
Maybe you just misunderstood my post. Sorry sometimes I don't write all that well. How many people have ever just joined the club without the intent of also having their name put in the book. What I mean is; How many people have waited until they shot a book buck to actually join the P&Y club. Or how many members of th eclub don't have their name in the book.My guess would be the vast majority have their name in the book because they have taken this route to become a P&Y member. By that I mean they waited until they shot a P&Y deer and then said "I think I will join P&Y, because I really want to support conservation, and I guess I will have my name put in the book while I am at it."
