What yall think would be the best things to give away this day and age? Weve gave trophys,dog food,shirts and hats. I think clubs still need to give something besides a yellow slip of paper. We are running outta ideas. Lets have some.

We are giving away 25 to first NITECH and registered. And then 15 for 2 nd registered and 10 for 3rd

We also try and keep it fair for Bench show so we also give 25 for best male and female of show.

Gas cards and thought about prepaid visa

There is one club around here that gives out framed pictures of the dog with the date on it. That is a nice change of pace and not too expensive. They make them on a picture quality printer from their computer.

I always thought it would be a good idea to give cast winners or high scoring open and Nt. Ch. a non transferrable free entry at our next hunt. Any more, most folks don't drive alone and it might encourage participation and help numbers.

nice to hear some clubs are sticking with prizes...some clubs around here have 15$ poor boy hunts...


i agree with the dog food...i would just donate it back to the club and let em keep it unless its what i actually feed..i understand the dog feed was likely donated to the club in the first place..and some guys might feed whatever they can especially if its free...


gas cards would be awesome...even if its $5..

and other things that hunters are likely to use...i like the idea of "doggie first aid" stuff.....decent collars/leads..always nice to have an extra laying around..

free entry to the next event at the club would be nice..probably have to put a price limit on it so it cant be used at a RQE or bigger events unless that doesnt matter to the club...

trophies and plaques are nice...especially for new comers...but, end up as dust collectors..some guys collect them...maybe keep trophies on hand and give an option to the other stuff? that'd be a nice way to give everyone an option...and most trophies have generic engraving "1st place nite champion" or "2nd place registered" etc..so wouldnt be a huge deal to keep a supply on hand...

bigger hunts with bigger prizes, i like nicely done jackets...one club does a Carharrt and embroiders the back all up nice and puts the hunters name on it etc for the overall winner...real nice jacket..

around here about all clubs are poor boys . i dont really care poor boy or not but give the high scoring dogs something , maybe a collar , lead , whatever . most dog feed thats giving out is feeder food but id take it . alittle incentitive goes along way , go to a club that gives something out to high scoring dogs apposed to a poor boy event . most poor boy hunts around here draw 10 dogs maybe , club attendances are down from what i hear everywhere .club leaders need to get with members and kick ideas around so attendances start to come back .
