I voted #3 for the spirit of the holiday.

Next would be #2 because of the freehand carving.

No offense, but #1 looks like a stencile. Good, but I always look for originality in the carving. I ALWAYS carve freehand, but that's just me.
(this year I did a cyclop face, which came out pretty good.)

Not positive if it is a stencil or not but I would be surprised if it is. The carver is an extremely talented person that does no sheeit fantastic work (his rubber baits are ugly - kinda puke color

)

Not a stencil, carved from my own little brain. I actually carved this before i knew there was a contest and entered it just for the hell of it.
If it was a stencil it would have been of my own hand anyhoo.

Thank John and everyone who voted.

I will post choice plugs tomorrow for the winners!

I didn't think it was stenciled. Kinda like Numbskull slinging an eel, he could but it doesn't fit the reputation.
