Leica Sport Optics announces sponsorship of Boone and Crockett’s Generation Next Awards, which honors youths who recently entered a trophy in Boone and Crockett records.
The Generation Next Awards will be held during the Boone and Crockett Club 28th Big Game Awards, July 17-20 in Reno, Nev., at the Silver Legacy Hotel. One of North America’s longest-running celebrations of big-game conservation and management, the triennial event will feature a public exhibition of World’s Records, Top 5 trophies and records-book specimens taken by hunters age 16 and under during the past three years.
“We are pleased to participate in the development and acknowledgement of the next generation of hunters,” Terry Moore, vice president of Sport Optics for Leica, says. “We continue to be highly supportive of the big-game conservation and management efforts of the Boone and Crockett Club.”
