MORE TO THE SCORE
You wouldn’t know it by looking at this photo, but when Virginian Jeff Hubbard woke up to hunt this woodland caribou in late October, the wind was screaming at 80 mph, blowing the snow sideways. He was the only hunter to leave camp that day. “I had a warm fire, biscuits and gravy, and hot coffee in camp. And I’m asking myself why I was going to go out in this,” he says. The guide said the bulls would be moving, and he was right. Hubbard bellycrawled 220 yards, but when he got into range, the snow from his frozen beard had melted onto his scope, filling the ocular lens with water. He frantically wiped it clean and made a great shot on this Newfoundland woodland caribou, which is the ninth largest in the records. Wearing his grandfather’s wool hat from 1958 and his dad’s flannel shirt, Hubbard was elated. “It’s one of those trips my dad and grandfather always wanted to do, but they never got a chance to go,” he says. After the shot, the sun came out for literally 10 minutes— just long enough to snap this great field photo. Hubbard's caribou is the largest woodland caribou to be entered in the 31st Big Game Awards Program.
