See how our recording system has evolved over time and learn about the development of our Conservation Program and youth programs. A special section of testimonials from numerous Club members relates how their involvement in the Pope & Young Club has shaped their bowhunting ethics, their beliefs in themselves, how its melded friendships and shaped their entire lives. The comprehensive listing of entries includes the final score, selected measurements, location, date of kill, hunter’s name and all-time rank. The listings are sorted by species and then by score in descending order. The book features portrait photos and field photos for the World’s Records and first-person-account stories of the hunts that produced these World’s Records. A CD-Rom of the records is included with this record book. The CD Contains a digital version of the full record book (in .pdf format) as well as the records information in database format (Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access and comma delimited files). Popularly sought-after and requested, this format allows users to personally sort the data fields at their choosing on their PC. This book not only recognizes and honors these extraordinary examples of North American big game, it also traces the past and present health of these wildlife populations and offers indisputable evidence of the continued success of hunting as a wildlife management tool. Perhaps as importantly, the pages of this publication are a testimonial to the spirit and time-honored traditions of the hunt and harvest. This is a book of bowhunting’s history and bowhunting’s remarkable success story.
