TROPHY BUCK CONTEST

Think you have the biggest buck? Bring your mount to our 2022 Bethel Wildlife & Outdoor Expo to enter the Trophy Buck Contest. Each buck will receive a B&C Score (if your buck has been officially scored previously, you must bring along your scorecard when you register since bucks cannot be re-scored). Thank you Orscheln Farm & Home (Shelbina, Macon, and Monroe City) for donating a prize for the winner of the trophy buck contest — a deer blind! For questions, contact Larry Smoot, 660-651-0259.
