Scorer Information

RECORDS OF EXOTICS was started in the late 1970's by Thompson Temple, to assist hunters in evaluating trophy quality of introduced animals in North America. A record book is being produced about every 3 years.

Membership is not required to enter an exotic animal in the R.O.E. record keeping system. Animals that meet or exceed the minimum scores will be listed in our next record book with a $20.00 entry fee. Animals may be scored by one of our over 400 designated scorers throughout the United States. Upon acceptance, the entrant will also receive a beautiful certificate suitable for framing to acknowledge their accomplishment.

Depending on the score, all entries qualifying may purchase a bronze, silver, or gold medal on an attractive plaque for a modest fee. Various groupings of exotic animals taken are called "slams". Very nice, inexpensive wildlife bronzes are available for purchase to recognize the hunter's accomplishments.

Since 1980, the largest exotics for the previous year have been recognized at our annual banquet. We notify hunters by mail if they qualify to win one of our awards for the best exotics of the year.

The beauty of the Records of Exotics scoring systems is its simplicity. The first time scorer can measure quickly and accurately, and the scorer is paid a $5.00 scoring fee for each entry. The hunter or scorer may send the accurately completed scoresheet to R.O.E. along with a $20.00 entry fee. The R.O.E. office maintains the scorers records for the year and issues one payment check annually for all scores submitted. No membership is required by either the hunter or the scorer.

The purpose of this booklet is to teach you to measure and to provide the score sheets used for submission of entries. We list almost every specie of foreign deer, sheep, goat, and antelope introduced into North America. These score sheets may be downloaded and photocopied and used for entry or they may be ordered at no cost from the address below. If you encounter an animal not listed, please contact us for further instructions.

Anyone interested in becoming a scorer (no charge) or registering an animal, may write RECORDS OF EXOTICS, P. O. Box 502, Ingram, TX, 78025, or call (830) 367-5568.

Thank you for your interest in scoring for Records of Exotics!

God Bless You,

Thompson Temple
