Pioneer Classic
BIG BUCK CONTEST
Mecosta County’s Oldest Big Buck Contest
Contest Rules
The contest for 2010 is a two category event, both archers and rifle hunters can participate. Archers harvesting a buck (only)
may enter by bringing the entire (no capes or heads) buck to our Pioneer Office, 115 N. Michigan Ave., Big Rapids, October
1st through the end of the archery season December 31, 2010. The buck will be measured and photographed during the hours
of 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Rifle hunters begin their phase of the contest on November 15, 2010 and run
through the end of black-powder season. The same requirements and times apply.
Winners will be determined by a point system combining a measurement at the widest spread on the main beams
(outside spread) and the number of points (a point must be at least an inch in length). For Example: 8 points + 20 inch
outside width = 28 points.
Only bucks with four points or more or hunters with their first buck will be photographed. The photo will be published in
the Pioneer as soon as possible to the time of entry.
No entries from privately owned sanctuaries will be accepted.
Only whitetail deer qualify for the contest.
Only one entry per hunter unless the second buck is a contest prize contender in which case only one prize will be
awarded.
Prizes will be awarded at the Big Buck Award Dinner which will be announced at a later date.
Any entry that is suspected of being illegally taken will be referred to the Michigan Department of Natural resources.
The immediate families of Pioneer Group employees are not eligible to compete in the contest.
In case of a tie, the winner will be determined by the first Pioneer recorded entry.
Good Luck!
Parking is available in front or back of the Pioneer building or in a nearby city lot.

Hypertension
2002 GMC Sierra 1500 2007 Chevy Cobalt LT This is the medical term for high blood pressure. In the medical world there are two types of hypertension.
Ex-Cab, 5.3L V8, Leather, Z-71 Off 59K Miles, Auto., Power Moon, Essential hypertension means there is no obvious known cause of the high blood pressure. Thirty years ago when a
person was found to have persistent high blood pressure we would do a bunch of tests to try to find the cause of
Road Pkg., Clean AZ Truck! Heated Leather. Sharp! the problem. Rarely a cause was found. Most of the time the diagnosis in these cases, was essential hypertension.
$9,995 $9,995 The normal blood pressure for adults is around 120/80. The all wise AMA keeps lowering the standard, but this
is a good number. BP will vary with age, body size and gender. The circulatory system is basically a hydraulic system
with four pumps and many miles of microscopic tubing, arteries, veins, and capillaries which bring nutrients to and
remove wastes from all of the trillions of cells in our body. The blood pressure is constantly being monitored and
modulated based on the body’s needs.
When we run or work hard physically, the BP will go up, sometimes to 240/120, and then return to normal with
rest. This is what is supposed to happen. The difficulty arises when the BP does not return to normal at rest.
Since the hydraulic system is design to handle certain pressures, it will be damaged if the pressure is too high.
Much like your garden hose, if it is rated for 40 psi, then lower than that is the best pressure. But if you run it
at 60 psi, it will not blow up today, but over time it will wear out sooner than it would if you follow the design
2007 Ford Freestyle SEL 2007 Chevy Malibu LS specifications. So keeping the resting pressure at 120/80 will allow the blood vessels to last longer.

$10,995 $10,995 elasticity will cause further damage to the blood vessels and further increase high blood
pressure.
Reduce and eliminate all stimulants. These things will raise blood pressure and
increase damage to the wall of the arteries. Caffeine in any form constricts the blood
vessel, increasing the pressure. Sudafed, pseudoephedrine, or any cold medicine with
decongestant (D, like Claritin D) will raise blood pressure. Tobacco in any form will raise
the BP. Salt will hold extra water in your circulation, causing swelling, and increased BP.
One teaspoon of salt will hold eight pounds of water in your system. Drink 40 – 60 oz
chlorine-free water per day to keep your body well hydrated. Since every pound of body
fat contains hundreds of feet of extra blood vessels, weight elimination is a great way to

“It’s a common misconception that only car dealerships can perform the
maintenance services on a new vehicle that is under warranty. Clearly,
consumers can have their maintenance done by their local independent
repair shop without affecting the warranty.”
