Big Buck Photo Contest Youth Division Winner Klay Dolin of Lewisburg

Gov. Jim Justice recognized the winners of the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources’ first-annual Big Buck Photo Contest during a special event at the State Culture Center earlier this week. The Governor announced five adult winners and surprised all youth finalists with a free lifetime hunting and fishing license.

Lewisburg resident Klay Dolin was announced to be a Youth Division winner in the contest.

“We were completely blown away by the response to our first-ever Big Buck Photo Contest. I absolutely loved looking through all the photos of so many of our state’s incredible hunters of all ages,” Gov. Justice said. “I couldn’t possibly be more proud. You truly love our great outdoors and you’re passing that love on for generations to come. It’s the same love I have for our state. When I say I’ve been over just about every inch of woods in this state, I’m not lying. You have a guy, who just happens to be your Governor, that truly shares your love for hunting in our unbelievable state. It couldn’t be any better.”

The Big Buck Photo Contest is sponsored by the West Virginia Department of Tourism and the WVDNR. They invited sportsmen, women, and children to show off their buck harvest last fall. The response was overwhelming with more than 1,600 contest entries in just five weeks.

At the Governor’s request, all youth finalists – not just the top five – will receive a free lifetime hunting and fishing license. Adult winners will be able to select one of the following prizes: free lifetime West Virginia hunting, trapping and fishing license; two-night stay in a Cabwaylingo State Forest cabin; $500 Bass Pro Shops gift card; $500 Cabela’s gift card; or a two-night stay in a Seneca State Forest cabin.

Finalists were chosen by random drawing from all eligible entries. Winners were selected by a judging committee based on photo composition, size of the buck’s antlers, number of antler points, and the description of the hunt.
