The Hunt Quietly Movement

By Matt Rinella Matt Rinella is a research ecologist, lifelong bowhunter, and founder of the Hunt Quietly Movement. He hosts the Hunt Quietly podcast. e grass-roots traditions that defined hunting in America have been displaced by a hypercommercialized pay-to-play model. Instead of hide, horns, meat, and personal enjoyment, many hunters now go afield primarily for fame, money, and clout. is “hey, look at me” approach to hunting has eroded the integrity of our cherished pastime and set a terrible example for future generations of hunters. It has severely constricted hunting opportunity by inspiring small groups of hunters to monopolize game and hunting grounds to win popularity contests on television and social media. Instead of “the antis,” these are the dominant issues facing work-a-day

hunters, and no one with a voice in hunting is talking about them.

Bowhunting in Europe

By Anders Gejer Anders Gejer resides in Sweden and has bowhunted for many years. Anders enjoys hunting with all legal equipment. He enjoys trapping, hunting with shotgun or rifle but he really prefers his bows. Over time he has visited many places in pursuit of game: Europe, North America, Africa and New Zealand.

Anders first contact with the NBEF was through Dr. Dave Samuel who conducted a seminar in Denmark in the late 1980´s. Dave had a great influence on Anders at that time and is still a profound resource of facts as Anders and other members of the European Bowhunters Association endeavor to get bowhunting legalized in more and more European countries. Anders has taught countless bowhunter education classes all over Europe and recently instructor classes in Lithuania and Slovakia.

Alaska Deer Discussion With Bob Ameen, Larry Jones, and Trevor Embry Open discussion all about hunting the Sitka Blacktail deer in Alaska.

Bob Ameen: Married to Lisa Ameen, Resided in Alaska 40 Years Bow Hunted 53 Years, Senior Member Pope & Young Club, Life Member Alaskan Bowhunters Association, Member of Pope & Young Club’s Fred Bear Society, Taken Over 20 North American Big Game Species, Entered over 160 Animals into Pope & Young Records, Including Over 65 Sitka Blacktail Deer Trevor Embry: My name is Trevor Embry, current President of Alaskan Bowhunters Association, and measurer for Pope and Young Club.

I’ve always claimed to be a Pharmacist by trade, but a Bowhunter by heart. I’ve chased nearly 20 species of North American Big Game with my bow and arrow over the past decade or two.

Hunting Whitetails with a Deer Biologist

By C.J. Winand, Wildlife Biologist CJ is a certified wildlife biologist, and for the last 25 years has penned the “Hunting Whitetails” column for Bowhunter Magazine. He’s also one of the featured hunters for Bowhunter TV (Sportsman Channel and Outdoor Channel). CJ was presented the first ever Quality Deer Management Association’s (QDMA) “Signpost” award. is Communicator of the Year award was in

Seventy-plus Years of Bowhunting Adventures, Misadventures, and Miracles

By Dennis Dunn Dennis Dunn, a native of Seattle, WA, now lives in Sun Valley, Idaho, and in Naples, Florida, but his 70+ years of bowhunting adventures and misadventures have taken him pretty much allover North America. He was the first archer to complete the N. A. SUPER SLAM entirely with purely instinctive shooting — having never used any yardage sight-pins or release aids along the way. In 2004, when he finished up the Slam of the 29 species, his seventh hunt for Grizzly Bear netted him the P & Y World’s Record. at record stood for 10 years until his 28-year-old boar was dethroned in 2015 by Rod Debias’s enormous bruin. Bob Griego’s giant Grizzly has more recently pushed “Old Snaggletooth” to 3rd spot in the P & Y Records.

In the fall of 2008, Dunn’s award-winning book BAREBOW! was finally published, a«er four years in the writing, and it proceeded to win six national literary awards over the course of the next several years. In 2006, Dunn hung up his sightless compound for good and went back to his roots in traditional archery. At 83, he is still actively bowhunting, and this September he hopes to

Seminars & Workshops complete his final hunting goal by harvesting (with his Black Widow recurve) a Pope & Young Alaska Barren Ground Caribou. at would give him the first, all-P-&-Y Super Slam ever accomplished barebow, since the five or six bowhunters who have attained that lo y goal all did so using sight-pins for aiming. Since the fall of 2015, and all beyond the age of 75, Dunn has “upgraded” six different species — three making the Boone & Crockett Records and the other three making Pope & Young.

(All with strictly traditional archery tackle.)

Choosing the Correct Broadhead

By Chris James – FeraDyne Outdoors General Manager of Archery In this seminar we will discuss the different types of broadheads, advantages and disadvantages to those types, misconceptions, and myths.

Ultimately I hope you are able to leave with the knowledge to confidently choose your broadhead for your specific hunt with confidence, knowing it will do the job if you do yours.

I have been working in the archery industry and specifically with broadheads for 18 years. I started with Muzzy Products Crop. As an intern in 2005 and worked with the Eichler and Mussachia family until 2012 when FeraDyne purchased Muzzy. Since 2015 I have worked as the VP of Sales for FeraDyne and was part of the new product development team for FeraDyne Outdoors including, Muzzy, Muzzy Bowfishing, Rage, Wac’em Nockturnal, Tru-Fire, Block, Glendel, Shooter, Hurricane, IQ, Rocky Mtn Broadheads and Sights, Carbon Express, as well as other brands not specific to Archery. I am now the General Manager of the Archery Division for FeraDyne Outdoors. Archery has always been a passion and I have been blessed to work in an industry that I am passionate about and have been able to learn from some great people in this industry. I by no means know everything, but I have been able to accumulate a wealth of knowledge that many find helpful when picking equipment that will ultimately

THE BIGGEST DISPLAY EVER! But that’s not the half of it! e 33rd Recording Period set a lot of new records both in the books and in the records department. During this recording period we implemented many new processes and programs in the Official Measurer’s Network and in our office. To boot, both myself and our Records Coordinator, Becca Burt, began our journey with Pope & Young in the same short two years.

Hunters and P&Y alike are setting new records and doing so with some incredible stories and determination.

Here some interesting facts about this years Big Game Award and Display: • We have 172 trophies on display this year. at is over 40 more than ever before • We have 52 Velvet trophies on display this year, that is 14 more than ever before • We accepted 4821 entries in this recording period, up from 325 from last period • We have 52 trophies on display that in the Top 10 all time for their category • Did I already say we have 13 NEWLY RECOGNIZED WORLD RECORDS TO SHARE WITH YOU?!

• ere are 14 hunters who are receiving more than one award at our Big Game Awards • 51 of the 57 categories and ALL 29 species are represented in this display • 32 different States or Provinces are represented by trophies taken there, 37 from Alaska alone I have had the privilege to speak with virtually all of the trophy owners over the past two years, most of which will be here to support Pope & Young and receive recognition for their amazing bow hunting accomplishments.

With so many incredible trophies, I hope you take the time to say hello to these amazing hunters and take some long lasting photos in the Big Game Display ballroom! I know I plan to.

Lastly, I want to thank all of our volunteers who have spent weeks of their lives here in Reno helping my team, and our Panel Judges, handle all of these amazing trophies! is is no small feat. If you are ever temped by the idea of volunteering your time with Pope & Young at events or our biennial conventions, please reach out to us.

We would welcome your support and help.

Welcome and enjoy this incredible display!

AT A MINIMUM ———————————— I

f you are an avid bowhunter seeking to enter your trophies into the Pope & Young record books, you typically know about the minimum scores that need to be met to be considered for entry. Each species and category have its minimums based on years of scientific study used to determine an exceptional standard for that species. Whether the species at hand is a typical or non-typical antlered trophy, a velvet antlered trophy, or even one of the many animal sub-species categorized by a geographical boundary, the bowhunter should understand that these minimums are not just random numbers. At a minimum, you should know that the efforts to establish such minimums were long and exhausting. ey are exceptional but achievable.

In the world we live in today, we might feel more and more compelled only to harvest animals that will score higher than our minimum score requirements. at is not a bad thing. Taking mature animals in your hunting pursuits is a good thing.

It helps the population thrive, challenges you, the bowhunter, and tests your outdoor skills at the highest levels. But the minimum scores could also be looked at as just a goal or even a bonus. Not reaching the minimum score doesn’t diminish the hunter’s effort, skill set, or value of the hunt; it is not a grade on the hunter or the hunt. Instead, the score is a final entry in your hunting journal to document the grade of the animal and compare it against a set of long-standing standards in the ranks of others. At a minimum, we should accept that taking a big game animal is an honor and

should be treated with honor.

When the data is combined with harvest statistics and our record book entry data, sound biology, and wildlife management practices should support the well-known model(s) used to manage big game. It is no coincidence that big game animals that are the most dominant, have the best genetics, and are the healthiest are both the focal point of wildlife management and hunters. In a perfect world, where all wildlife management issues faced today are manageable, management of our big game animals would be exceptional, and the trophy quality of big game would be more commonplace. But it’s not a perfect world. When examined closely, the data can support good and poor wildlife management findings. And for that, we must ensure that bow hunting remains an effective tool for managing big game. At a minimum, know that every entry into the Pope & Young record books continues to help protect the use of a bow and arrow in wildlife management.

When you understand the purpose and history of the record books, our minimums make more sense regarding their purpose and position. As club members, we can then better support and represent bow hunting at a higher level. A level above the minimum expectation that, as a club, we put on each other to promote the club and bowhunting.

Becoming a better bowhunter isn’t always measured in the record book. Understanding the role that the record books play should influence all bow hunters to be better ambassadors of bowhunting, at a minimum.

Records Chairman Report

T

his statistical booklet is a culmination of the Pope and Young Club Records Program’s 33rd Recording Period (January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2022). e records contained in this booklet represent animals taken in North America, under the rules of fair chase, with a bow and arrow. For over sixty (62) years the Pope and Young Club has been collecting statistical data from these entries to compile the most complete and accurate database of its kind. In fact, during the 33rd Record Period the Pope and Young Club Records Program surpassed 123,000 entries in its database. is data provides millions of additional data points that can be utilized by our members, game and fish agencies, and archery industries alike.

In the 33rd Record Period, 4821 entries were received and accepted into the Records Program. ere were entries in fi y (50) different categories which include non-typical and velvet categories. e 33rd biennium ended with an all-time total of 123,250 entries into the Records Program, more than any of its kind. e Typical Whitetail Deer had the most entries with 2869 followed by the Typical American Elk (362), Black Bear (328), non-typical whitetail deer (301), and Pronghorn Antelope (211), depicting the top five. Fi y-three (53) animals finished in the

top five (5) of their respective categories (including velvet). ese statistics reflect the sound conservation efforts by game management agencies throughout North America. is booklet is used as the 33rd Recording Period convention program as well as the statistical summary. Within this booklet you will be able to review and analyze the most recent statistical data available. ere are hunt characteristic graphs which show data displayed in a useful format to help you visually interpret statistics. e Pope and Young Club Records Program is considered to be the backbone of the organization. e volunteer measurers of the Club, nearly 900, are very important,

2023

3/28/23 7:59 AM

Records Chairman Records Chairman Report Report as they keep the Records Program moving forward. e well trained measurers put in countless and o entimes thankless hours working with bowhunters to accurately measure their trophies and submitting them for entry into the Records Program. Without a doubt, the Records Program and this organization would not be where it is today without them.

In February of 2023, some of the most knowledgeable and experienced measurers in North America gathered together in Reno, Nevada, to participate in the Pope and Young Club’s 33rd Recording Period Panel Judging.

Over the course of three days, these measurers authenticated the score of the top 169 trophies

that were sent in to be panel judged. e judging at panel, as well as several special panels within the 33rd recording period, resulted in thirteen (13) new Pope and Young World Records being recognized; Central Canada Barren Ground Caribou Velvet, Mountain Caribou Velvet, Non-typical Columbian Blacktail Deer Velvet, Non-typical Sitka Blacktail Deer Velvet, Quebec-Labrador Caribou Velvet, Typical Columbian Blacktail Deer Velvet, Typical Coues Deer Velvet, Typical Mule Deer Velvet, Typical Sitka Blacktail Deer Velvet, Woodland Caribou Velvet, and Tule Elk (both velvet and hard racked). All of the trophies should be on display at the 2023 Pope and Young Club’s Biennial Convention in Reno, Nevada. e Pope and Young Club Records Program has set the standard for the measuring and recording of trophies taken in North America under the rules of fair chase with a bow and arrow. e Records Program has earned this reputation and will continue to move forward into the future. e future is important to the Pope and Young Club but preserving its rich history and tradition is equally important, providing a solid foundation to build upon. is booklet is a history book which forever preserves the Pope and Young Club’s 33rd Recording Period in print for all to enjoy forever!

Distribution & Growth Statistics The following pages contain a breakdown of the Pope & Young Club’s Records Program archives.

Entries in the Records Program are tallied by state/ province for each of the recognized North American big game species and are expressed as a total for each of the last ten two-year recording periods.

Additionally, the total all-time sums for each state, per species, are given and arranged in descending order. Entries are shown in the recording period that the animal was harvested.

With some insight into the various factors that

can affect the number of entries, the following stats can be interpreted to reflect the present health of a specific big game species population in a specific state/province and the hunting opportunities in that state/province. Past recording period supplements contain state by state breakdowns of the entries in the archives, current to that publication, which, along with this publication, can be charted to compare long term growth for a particular state/ province as compared to others. We hope you find this information interesting and informative.

Joe, at J&D Transport, is a long time bow hunter and strong supporter of his local and state conservation organizations! When I contacted him for a quote on some services, he quickly offered his services at a huge discount to support the Pope & Young Mission. Additionally, Joe takes his staff to at least one hunting and conservation fund raising auction each year.

His team will be in attendance at the P&Y Auction and Gala on Saturday!

Cowering in a corner of their corral, emaciated from starvation and near the limits of fear and exhaustion, was a primitive Indian. e terrorstricken man, obviously believing he was about to be killed, was taken into custody and housed in the Oroville jail.

Communication with his captors and “civilized” Indians living nearby proved impossible; however, news of the savage’s capture soon spread and reached the attention of two professors of anthropology at the University of California. ese two men, Professors Alfred Kroeber and T.T. Waterman journeyed from San Francisco to Oroville with the hope of discovering the ancestry of this “wild man.” Finally, a er unsuccessfully trying many different tribal tongues, Professor Waterman spoke a word in the Yana language, which was met with an instant response.

At last, the Indian could be told he was not facing imminent death at the hands of the white men. Reassured, his appetite improved, and he began to quickly adjust to life in what for him was surely a strange new world.

And so Ishi, the last surviving member of the ancient tribe of Yana Indians, was transported directly from the Stone Age into a complex, modern society.

e professors took Ishi back to San Francisco with them and gave him living quarters in the University’s Museum. It was here that Dr. Saxton Pope, an instructor at the University School of Medicine, was called in to make a physical examination of the Indian. is professional meeting developed into a strong friendship. Soon Ishi was Luke Brewster’s showing Dr. Pope and his companion, Art Young, Non-Typical Whitetail Deer how to make and use bows and arrows for hunt e Ishi award concept belongs to Mauch, Glenn ing. Although Ishi lived only five years in civilizaSt. Charles, Fred Bear, and Chuck Kroll. ey tion before succumbing to tuberculosis, his memhad been searching for an award like the Boone ory lives on in the writings of Pope and eodora and Crockett Club’s coveted Sagamore Hill Medal Kroeber, the wife of one of the professors who first befriended him.

Consequently, in late Luke Brewster’s Non1962 when the Pope and Typical Whitetail Deer Young Club introduced the idea for a special bowhunting award, Dick Mauch’s suggestion that it be named in honor of Ishi was met with an immediate and enthusiastic response.

A er all, it was Ishi who had instilled in Pope and Young the love of the bow and its use as an efficient hunting tool. What then could be more appropriate than honoring the individual who had done most to inspire the “fathers of modern bowhunting?”

The Ishi Award honoring the memory of eodore Roosevelt. eir suggestion for a special Ishi Award was quickly accepted by the membership. e award itself was designed by Fred Bear with assistance from Chuck Kroll. Bear owned a few pieces of some very fine, select-grade rosewood which were nearly perfect in color, grain, and texture. is wood was donated to the Club to serve as plaques for what was to become bowhunting’s most rare and distinctive award. Next, specially made obsidian spear points were fashioned by Jim Ramsey of Lincoln, New Mexico, undoubtedly a master at this ancient art. ese had-chipped points, mounted on each rosewood plaque along with an engraved metal plate, complete the treasured Ishi Award.

To date, only four of the special bowhunting awards have been presented. e first Ishi Award, presented in 1964, was for the tremendous non-typical whitetail deer bagged by Del Austin. is trophy from Hall County, Nebraska, not only set a new Pope & Young World’s Record but ranked as the second largest non-typical whitetail ever recorded, a distinction it still claims at this writing.

A second Ishi Award was presented in Denver in 1969 at the conclusion of the program honoring the finest North American big game trophies listed during the Club’s Sixth Recording Period. e award went to the outstanding typical whitetail deer taken by bowhunter Mel Johnson near Peoria, Illinois, which not only was a Pope & Young World’s Record but also ranked as the second largest of its kind ever recorded. is magnificent trophy also received the Boone and Crockett Club’s Sagamore Hill Medal, the only animal ever named to receive both of these cherished big-game honors.

A third presentation of the prestigious Ishi Award was made following the Seventh Recording Period when five new bowhunting World Records were recognized. Obviously, the judges faced a very difficult decision since quality trophies were in abundance; however, the final decision called for the award to go to the bighorn sheep taken by Ray Alt in the Sweet Grass Primitive Area of Montana. e last Award presentation was made, following the irtySecond Recording Period in 2021. Although World Record trophies were entered in numerous categories, the decision

for this ballot did not take long. e winner was the world’s largest ever recorded, huntertaken, Whitetail deer with any weapon. Luke Brewster shot this incredible Non-typical Whitetail Deer in 2018 in Edgar County, Illinois.
