More to the Score

Every record-book entry has a story. We tell snapshots of those stories with each installment from More to the Score, a regular section celebrating hunters across North America. By highlighting hunters and their trophies, we tell the story of successful conservation efforts begun more than 130 years ago thanks to the founders of the Boone and Crockett Club. Without their foresight and passion for conserving wild animals and wild places, there would be no bounty of wildlife we enjoy today, in both photos and at the dinner table.
