2009 Trophy Takers Awards, Sandy Creek Vic.
After several months of looking forward to see a gathering of bow hunters in one place, it was finally here.
Being my first year with the bow and my first TT awards, I didn't know what to expect. What I found was some great hunters and even greater people.
Bow hunting is on of the most family friendly sports as all ages and genders had a great time.
The trophy wall was one of the best sights that I have ever seen. It gave me lots of bench marks to aim for in my future hunting career.
I was told by a mate that I would get best Sambar award, but when the Bill Baker memorial and Dallas Conway / Ken Whiting Trophy came my way as well, I was very humbled and honored.
To everyone who organized the weekend, Thank you and I hope to see all next year.
Jim Craze.
