Boone & Crockett Clubs Big Game Awards Hardcover - 2004

From the publisher

Every three years the Boone and Crockett Club publishes a new Awards book featuring all of the greatest trophies taken and entered in its world-recognized Awards Program. This 700-page volume is the most up-to-date big game records book available--containing a complete listing of over 4,000 trophies accepted from 2001 to 2003. Each listing includes the final score; selected measurements; location and date of kill; hunter and owner; as well as the rank in the 25th Awards Program. What sets this publication apart from other books are the tales of the hunts for the top North American big game trophies in the 25th Awards Program, including new World's Records for muskox, pronghorn, Roosevelt's elk, bighorn sheep, non-typical Sitka blacktail, and non-typical Columbia blacktail.
Learn about the hunts for some of the highest ranking trophies ever taken by today's hunters--such as Jerry Bryant's non-typical whitetail deer, which was entered as the largest whitetail deer taken by a hunter. Stories told by the hunters themselves provide exciting reading and invaluable information about areas currently producing trophy quality big game animals. Each hunt is unique and each hunter has his or her own special way of capturing in words the intensity of the experience. In this book readers will also find hundreds of photographs--portraits of the top 100 or so trophies, hunters in the field, and a special 32-page color section of the best field photographs from the 25th Awards Program--not to mention 17 score charts including all the measurements for the top-scoring trophies.
