Congratulations to all of the winning teams in the January 2025 WTBBC, and thank you to all who entered. Our total team count was 763 teams. We weighed 67 qualified bobcats, and paid out $175,490 in prize money.
WTBBC would like to thank everyone for supporting the contest. It wouldn’t continue to thrive as it has without your help in spreading the word. Keep telling all of your hunting buddies about it!!
Also, a huge THANK YOU to our sponsors for paying for polygraphs, adding more ways to win, and donating items for the door prize drawing. Please show them your appreciation of their support by visiting their websites or establishments and patronizing them when they can be of service to you. They have really outdone themselves this year.
We look forward to seeing you all again for the February 22nd contest.
