				Plug Contest - Categories etc..
			 
 What do you guys want to see for categories this year?
 
 Best representation of a classic lure
 Most Likely to catch a cow on its first cast
 Best in show
 Best functional
 Wallhanger
 Creativity/ Artistic - Ouside the box, but how do you through-wire a bunker?
 Best restore of a classic plug, must provide before and after photos
 "Gotta start somewhere" - Best first year builder
 
 
 What do you guys want to see?  I'll make up the ballots etc.
 
 Its also been suggested that each person receive a ballot when the walk in the door/pay.  Having the blank ballots in a pile by the lures folks were voting for like 2 or 3 lures at a time on some ballots. Filling out multiple ballots.
 
 Maybe this way, everyone gets in all their votes at one shot.

				 | What do you guys think about maybe a write in area for builder of the year?  You know someone you feel has really contributed to the forum etc?  Its just a suggestion I figured I'd throw it out there.   |

It's done in the Olympics and this is the Olympics of plug building!
 
Course, I will bow to the officials as it makes more work for them and it wouldn't be fair if they had to work all day at it and not get to enjoy the day like the rest of us bums.
 
Thier decision. They would know best. |

				 | Being new to the whole plug building addiction, would it make sense to create a category for airbrushed vs. cans? not sure if this makes sense but I see the work that you guys are doing with airbrushes and it blows my mind. Not exactly certain the ratio of airbrushers/can guys or if it would warrant a category.  |

 This is what we have for categories.  If everyone is cool with the options etc.  I'll work on getting ballot forms created tonight.  Say cut this off around 7pm so everyone can take a look?
