Fellow Hunters:

We are sending you this newsletter to thank you for entering our annual Big Buck Classic Contest and to forward you the contest results. We have donated $500.00 to the Salvation Army of Owen Sound. The club also donated $500.00 to the Leukemia Association.

Ray Wardrop, Bryan Boshold & Chris Mink scored 92 sets of antlers this year. Both Ray & Bryan are FROW (Foundation for the Recognition of Ontario Wildlife) certified to score deer, turkeys, bear and moose. A huge thanks as always goes out to Ray, Bryan & Chris for their efforts and expertise in assisting our club. A total of 12 bucks were scored/harvested with bow and a total of 14 bucks were scored/harvested by black powder rifle.

The grand prize draw winner was Kris Mason of Allenford, Ontario. Kris won a brand new Tikka T3 Synthetic 300 WSM calibre rifle from Lake Huron Rod & Gun.

All entries below the top 3 and women’s prize went into a draw for the hidden score prize. The winner was Bob Harron of Tara. Bob’s buck green scored 108 3/8”. Bob won the Bushnell Banner scope from G.A.D. Products.
