2.    The Elk and Wapiti Society  Velvet Antler Competition
There are velvet classes for all age groups 2 yr, 3 yr, 4 yr, 5yr, 6yr and Open Supreme.
There is a Champion of Champions class judged from all classes.

Tikana's wins:
In the 22 year history of the competition, Tikana bulls have the heaviest weight and largest beam circumference in every age group class.
In the last 15 years Tikana bred bulls have been Champion of Champions ten times and Reserve Champion seven times.
The most satisfying aspect is seeing Tikana bred bulls owned by other farmers and their progeny scattered throughout the age group results
