Wish I could have hunted these geese but living on the east side and not knowing anyone who hunts them are almost not on the bucket list anymore.

Brant carving winners from left to right. Nicolai in first, Kilby third, and Banko second. The weather was great! We raised a bunch of money for our scholarship program and the class of birds in every category was awesome!

I believe the Number #1 brant sold for $1500 at the competition and the number 2 Sold for $1250.

We had our display at the event and the weather was perfect nice but not too hot.
