Pioneers of Conservation, Our Legacy for Generations

T

he Boone and Crockett Club’s history is a 132-year long tale of measured and thoughtful commitment to wild land and wildlife conservation that balances human and wildlife needs and sees deep value in preserving the hunting tradition. It’s a commitment shaped by visionaries and a common-sense, science-based approach to natural resource management. It’s an effort that has saved many wildlife species from extinction and it’s considered one of our nation’s greatest accomplishments.

Wildlife Management Institute, and Ducks Unlimited).

Along with these successes, the Club championed a “Fair Chase” hunting ethic, which influenced game laws throughout North America. In addition, the Club created the first big game scoring and data collection system to objectively measure and evaluate the health and habitat quality of North American big game populations, while improving state and federal management of those animals.

Some of the special projects B&C is focusing on today include:

Unrestricted market hunting, irresponsible land-use practices, and pioneer settlement in the West devastated North America’s big game populations. Theodore Roosevelt saw this wildlife decimation firsthand when he traveled out west in the 1880s. This prompted him to protect and restore America’s wild lands and he did so with characteristic zeal. Founding the Boone and Crockett Club in 1887 was his first step.

Working with fellow Club members George Bird Grinnell, Madison Grant, Gifford Pinchot, and 20 other visionaries, Roosevelt laid a foundation for the world’s greatest conservation system.

Over the next several decades the Club and its members initiated legislation for the first national parks (Yellowstone, Glacier, and Denali), science-based wildlife management legislation (Lacey Act, Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and protective Alaska game laws); developed conservation funding (Federal Duck Stamp Act and the Pittman-Robertson Act); created federal land management agencies (U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service); and formed key conservation organizations (National Audubon Society,

P

hase one of B&C’s Poach and Pay included an in-depth research project with the support of our partner, Leupold & Stevens, to determine what is and is not working in the war against poaching in the United States. The poaching of any animal is a crime. Increasingly, law enforcement personnel are dealing with individuals illegally targeting and taking trophy animals. Whether this is thrill killing or for some commercial enterprise, mature trophy animals are of value to people, and poachers. After our initial findings the Club, with the assistance of Professional Member Jon Gassett and his wife, Kristie Blevins, who is a criminologist, is embarking on a two-pronged approach. The first is the development of a legislative template for state legislators to utilize in the drafting of effective legislation for fines and restitution. The second is to build a model that reflects what the economic costs are to the public as a result of poaching activities. Initial research shows these costs in the tens of millions of taxpayer dollars—dollars that could have been spent on conservation. This economic approach will hopefully raise awareness within the judicial system that poaching is far from a victimless crime.

S

ince the turn of the last century the Boone and Crockett Club has been associated with ranking big game animals by measurements of their horns and antlers. Our first involvement can be traced to the First Annual Sportsmen’s Exposition held in New York City in 1895.

Roosevelt, along with two other prominent B&C members, Archibald Rogers and George Bird Grinnell served as judges. This was during the period of rampant westward expansion and the near decimation of the big game species of North America. This continued through the early part of the 20th century. In an attempt to preserve what was once present on the North American landscape, Club members William T. Hornaday and Madison Grant began compiling the National Collection of Heads and Horns. They were certain the ship had passed and wildlife would soon be only found in history books and museums.

Amazingly B&C and its members were able to turn the tide by putting hunting under the guidelines of Fair Chase, a new concept to sportsmen of that era, and passing game laws, which halted the downward spiral of game populations. Through their efforts, game species began to recover. It became clear that collecting the best specimens was no longer needed, and tracking recovery was the next step to take.

By creating a scoring system in 1950, rewarding the traits of the healthiest specimens, B&C intended to document all mature big game species being harvested or found to serve as a gauge of overall habitat quality. By listing hunters taking these animals in Fair Chase conditions B&C continues to promote ethics and sound game management. What started as looking for the best has become the longest standing data set of big game recovery and your help is needed to continue. Whether you found a deer right at the 160-minimum score for typical whitetails or have the largest ever whitetail harvested in your county, we need the data.

ver 100 years have passed since sportsmen first adopted a new approach to hunting called “fair chase” that changed hunting forever. We have changed. Technology has changed. Our society has changed. What was once a predominately rural society that hunted and understood the benefits of hunting is now predominantly an urban one, where fewer people have any real contact with the land and its wildlife. We also live in a democracy where the voice of the majority rules. Today, the majority of people that do not hunt or understand hunting, thankfully still do not oppose hunting. This too, can and is changing. If the hunting traditions we cherish, and our systems of wildlife conservation and management that depend on hunting are to remain, what we do now and the image we project will either positively or negatively affect this future.

NEW! YETI RAMBLER MUG -CLAY

The YETI Rambler ® 14 oz. Mug is the toughest, most over-engineered camp mug out there.

Unlike traditional camp mugs, this double-wall vacuum-insulated body protects hands from hot or cold contents. The mug’s wide opening means contents are easily accessible, but will cool quicker. That’s why the mug comes with the standard Rambler 30 oz. Lid (also compatible with the Rambler 30 oz. MagSlider Lid).

OTHER BOOKS PUBLISHED BY B&C Theodore Roosevelt and George Bird Grinnell released the Boone and Crockett Club’s first book, American Big Game Hunting, in 1893, and we have been publishing books ever since. Those who love great hunting literature will find a great selection of books from the B&C Classics series that recounts adventurers from the late 1800s through the early 1900s to books by former Forest Service Chief Jack Ward Thomas. His trilogy ranges in topics from time spent packing in Oregon’s wilderness to his hunting adventures around the world as well as his memoirs growing up in Texas and his rise to a natural resource leader. Along with these two books series, readers will also be delighted to find several titles celebrating our hunting heritage and modern-day hunting tales.
