RULES OF THE CONTESTS:

1. This is an NWTF sanctioned calling contest, so all basic rules are the same as any NWTF contest; except the ones listed in this document.

2. In the case of 20 or more callers there will be a FINAL ROUND on Sunday the 26, 2012. There will be 10 callers advancing to day two. They will be the top 10 contestants from the preliminary round that will be held on 2/25/2012.
Call-offs will only be held during the preliminaries to select the number 10 spot.

3. The “.5” rule will be in place during the All American Friction and Open. This will help eliminate ties.

4. The scores will be carried over from the first round and added to the score from the final round to determine the winner. This method is being used to reward callers for having a good opening round. If less than 20 callers, only Day One scores will be used.

5. The KING OF THE DELTA winner will be determined by combined scores from the 1st round of the Mossy Oak All American, the second round of the Mossy Oak All American (if needed), Naturalgear All American Friction and the Locator Call Contest.

6. The calls to be used in the contest will be determined the day of the contests. They will consist of 5 calls, from the list of calls, on a NWTF Official Sanctioned Calling Contest Score Sheet.

7. Each contestant will have 5 minutes to complete their 5 calls.

8. The entry for the Open is $100.00 if pre-registered and $120.00 if done the day of the event. These are rules common to any event. Arrangements have to be made for judges and callers if a contest is done over more than one day period.

9. The final day to have entry postmarked for pre-registration will be February 13, 2012.

*The “CALLERS POT” winner will be determined by the caller that scores the highest points in the All American Turkey Calling Championship; as long as they have paid their entry fee of $20.00 to enter. If not entered the top scorer entered in the CALLER’S POT will take home the money.

*The Locator Call contest will be a combination of a Barred Owl, a Crow and a caller’s choice. There will be a special score sheet for this contest. It will consist of the calls that can be used and a format similar to the NWTF score sheet. Each caller will be scored on each sound. Then a 3 call total will determine the score and the winners.
For example; owl 40, crow 40 and coyote 40==total score 120
Each contestant will have 3 minutes to perform 3 calls.

***The Barred Owl and the Crow are mandatory and then caller’s choice
Below is a list of locator calls that can be used in the contest but are not limited to:
1. Pileated Woodpecker
2. Turkey Gobbling
3. Train Whistle
4. Coyote
5. Pig Squealing
6. Peacock
7. Donkey
8. Blue Jay
9. Hawk
10. Predator distress call

This is also new to any contest and that is why this is one of the calls that will determine the KING OF THE DELTA. Don’t let something different make you miss your chance at the crown.

Little Rock Ducks Unlimited Sponsors honored former Arkansas Game & Fish Commission Commissioner Marion "Mack" McCollum with the sixth annual Jerry Jones Sportsman's Award on Oct. 26, 2010.

McCollum, a Stuttgart native, is best known as the founder of Mack's Prairie Wings, the nation's premier waterfowl hunting outfitter. His store has the same stature among waterfowl hunters that Bass Pro Shops has among fishermen and Cabela's has among big game hunters. Its presence solidifies Stuttgart's reputation as the duck hunting capital of the world. As a Life Sponsor of Ducks Unlimited, he's also a major contributor to the organization and duck hunting in Arkansas.

The award is given annually to those who have significantly contributed to the sport of duck hunting in Arkansas. Last year, the award went to George Dunklin. Other honorees include former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Sheffield Nelson and U.S. Sen. Mark Pryor.
