Each month includes one of twelve superb images of various species of North American big game animals from today's most well-known wildlife photographers. Each image was hand selected from a vast pool of submissions, not only to appeal to the discriminating eye of hunters, but anyone who has a passion for and appreciates quality photography of these impressive animals. Readers will also be delighted to learn about extraordinary big game trophies that have been awarded the Sagamore Hill Medal - the highest award given by the Boone and Crockett Club.
The Sagamore Hill Medal is given in memory of Theodore Roosevelt (Founder and first president of the Boone and Crockett Club), Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., and Kermit Roosevelt. Although there have been many new World's Record trophies honored these past two decades, the Sagamore Hill Medal has only been presented four times during that period. To be eligible for nomination the trophy must either be a new World's Record or one that is close to it, but more importantly, the hunt that produced the trophy should be exemplary of those characteristics most highly valued by Roosevelt: fair chase, self reliance, perseverance, intentional selective hunting and mastery of challenges being some of those.
In addition, big game hunters will enjoy the number of interesting facts and information presented such as scoring tips, records program trivia, minimum scores, important dates, and moon phases.
Featured big game animals include Dall's sheep, Alaska brown bear, whitetail and mule deer, American elk, Rocky Mountain goat, pronghorn, and caribou.
