2008 Turkey Viewer Video Challenge

Okay, you’ve seen us do it, now it’s your turn!

The Michigan Out-of-Doors Turkey Video Challenge is underway.

If you can lay down some great footage of your hunt, we want to see it. Participating is easy. Just take your camera into the woods with you this year and videotape someone hunting - bow or gun, it doesn’t matter, as long as you follow all the game laws.

Videotaping a turkey hunt can be very challenging. We’ll be looking at many different aspects of the videos during the judging process.

Those videographer/hunters who lay down the best footage and tell the best story and are most likely to walk away with some great prizes. Some of the best hunts may also appear on Michigan Out-of-Doors Television!

If you’re up to the challenge, take a look at the rules and if you’d like some more information on what we look for in a story, read the article about how to better videotape your hunts. Good luck, shoot straight and don’t forget to push the record button!

Rules and guidelines

We would prefer video be on Mini-DV format. However, that does not exclude any other format. We cannot however use VHS tape. Also, the original tape will be the best possible quality (we will return tapes if you include $3 for S & H). We reserve the right to use any footage entered on our show. Rules:
  1. Entrants must be MUCC members. (not a member? click here)
  2. All game laws must be complied with.
  3. Only Michigan hunts are eligible (you may be a non-resident, but you have to hunt in MI).
  4. Entries must be received by June 6th, 2008.
Entries will be judged by the Michigan Out-of-Doors TV crew on various aspects of videowork. Things we will look for include, but are not limited to, video quality, steadiness, interest of story, difficulty and proper footage for editing a story.
