The same good it is for you when you used it...I believe it was you that posted a map showing entries across the country.

No lost cause, Buckeye.....
I stated earlier that I'd be willing to listen to why someone thinks I should become a memeber (my original post on this thread). What good is the data to someone else (mine)?
Do I have to pay the $$ and go through the "hoops" (
) to enter an animal?

I look at this way as well.
The data is incomplete because hunters refuse to participate. It's skewed to areas that "participate".
I'll enter every animal I take that qualifies to add to the data. It has nothing to do with chest thumping or seeing my name in type....I can see that many other places. Even with my animal in the books, I doubt I join or buy the book, I'm entering data.

Why is it so hard for you guys to understand that I'm pretty sure I understand the process for a Seattle Seahawks fan club membership....but I have no desire to go through it????
Do I have to do THAT, too, to be "educated"?

Again....I AM NOT SUGGESTING THAT YOU JOIN P&Y FOR GODS SAKE [&:]So I am pretty much done with conversing about you using P&Y statistics for personal use, but not wanting to give back to the cause.

Buckeye:
If you think my entering data is the right thing to do as an ethical, responsible hunter.....I trust your judgement.
I honestly am more turned off to the prospects of ever measuring a deer, right now.....I don't know if I will, or not.
While we're on that subject......if it's simply "data" they're after......why don't they post a tutorial on how to properly measure a deer's rack.....and leave it up to the hunter? Why the need for the "official" scorer.....if it's only for the data? What POSSIBLY could matter over 3-5 inches in a deer's overall measurement (data -ly speaking)?

They have a manual available for purchase. I knowit should be posted on the site but it is not.
But I did a google and here is 1 of many on the topic of instructions:

RE: If you shot a P&Y qualifier this fall would you enter it?
I was afraid to enter mine for the fear that everyone would flock to Idaho like IOWA! LMAO ... 
jk of course..
I am feel like if I kill a top 5% buck in my state I'd enter him for his sake..not mine.. I do that in my state records and they only accept official b/c- p/y scores forthose records.
As for theactualPY book....i'd have to kill a state record to even find myself on the massive list..
