Opening Weekend // Pike County, Missouri
The check-in station is back. Bring your buck, your doe, and your best story from the stand. One afternoon, big deer on the board, and every dollar going to local FFA.
What is Trophy DeerFest
We are bringing back the feel of opening weekend, when hunters and the whole community would gather in town or at the check-in station to compare deer and swap stories.
Trophy started DeerFest in 2019. Across those events we have raised tens of thousands of dollars for local FFA chapters while throwing a real community party. Come see great deer, catch up with people who hunt the same country you do, and put a little more in the FFA fund.
The Details
Free to walk in. Bring cash for raffle tickets and for food and drinks. Deer registration runs all afternoon.
Register A Deer
Every deer you register at DeerFest goes on the board and gets you entered into the grand prize drawing. Buck or doe, it counts. Deer harvested during the Missouri youth firearm season or firearm opening weekend 2026 qualify.
Required · To enter a deer in the drawing, provide a Telecheck ID and the confirmation number of a notched tag.
Bring your deer to the check-in and register for the adult competitions. First and second place prizes on the line.
A bracket built for young hunters, so the first-deer crowd competes with their own. First and second place prizes here too.
Register any deer and your name goes in the hat for the big drawing. You do not need to place in a competition to win.
Separate raffle running all afternoon, with every dollar going to local FFA. Call the office ahead of time or buy tickets at the door.
Full contest and drawing rules are printed on every registration form and available on request.

2025 Sponsors
DeerFest happens because local businesses and families step up. Their donations cover the prizes and the event costs, so every dollar raised goes straight to local FFA chapters. Thank you to the sponsors who keep the check-in station lit up year after year. These are our 2025 sponsors; our 2026 lineup is still coming together.
















If you want to back the community and the next generation of hunters, we would like you on the list. Donate an item, cover a prize, or help offset event costs. Every bit of it supports local FFA chapters.
Count Me In
RSVP so we can plan a rough headcount. It is not required to come, and you do not need to RSVP to register a deer, but it helps us set up and puts you on the reminder list.
