June's Photo Vote Getters

June gave way to the Total Outdoor Network's second photo contest.  The contest boasted over 6,600 votes among 290 different photos.  The voting was very close among the participating members competing for June's prize consisting of a Bushnell 20 x 50 Spotting Scope.

In the end, it came down to three photos.  The winner Trent Thomas took the top prize with over 500 votes for his photo titled "Two of a Kind and Both The First Time".  In at second place was "Moon Bar Fish" taken by Mark Donarski which captured 262 votes.  For third, Scott Meschke and his son Matthew received 202 votes for their photo titled "Matthew's Tagged Walleye" depicting a beautiful Van Hook walleye caught by Matthew.  Following the top three vote getters the voting was fierce and very close.  Everyone capturing their outdoor moments and submitting them for the TON audience deserves a big pat on the back.  Your photos highlight what North Dakota's outdoors is all about.  Congratulations to all of you on securing a great memory!  Hopefully, there will be many more to come and many more for the viewing audience to enjoy as well!

July is nearly over so the voting for July's photo contest will be underway soon.  If you have photos you'd like to submit or would like to review the rules click HERE.

Top Prize:  Two of a Kind and Both The First Time

Heather and I were out shooting last night. She is just getting started she has shot maybe six time. I was shooting at thirty yards and new right away and I started screaming I was pretty pumped. So she shot maybe one or two rounds and I look up and said you hit an arrow for sure. So I walk up and she had the robin hood too. Man I thought that was pretty cool evening.

Third Place:  Matthew's Tagged Walleye

My eight year-old son Nevada finally got a shot at a turkey this weekend and ended up getting a jake. I don’t know who was more excited him or me. I video taped the entire thing talk about neat to re-watch it over and over again. After he shot it he yelled out "Yah Baby That’s What I’m Talking About!"
