Northeast Big Buck Club
Now here is a club that anyone would be interested in especially if you are from the northeast.
The Northeast Big Buck Club was founded in 1996 and they are a non-profit all volunteer organization of hunters who provide scoring and record keeping services for all legally harvested whitetails. The club is also dedicated to deer preservation through local efforts of conservation, education, safety and community service.
As stated on the website their mission and goals are very clear,

They have created a record book that can be purchased at a small price. The book itself is in it’s fifth edition and has done quite well for itself, which can be purchased online and you do not need to be a member to buy one.
If you join as a member you receive six issues of what they call The Northeast Big Buck News Magazine which is packed with all the up to date and information about the biggest bucks in the northeast.
Measuring and scoring is their specialty. They measure and score ONLY WHITETAILS so all their scorers are very well trained. They use the Boone and Crockett system and register only the gross score before deductions, they believe in giving the buck full credit for everything it grew.
If you wanted to become an official scorer for the NBBC just contact them through their website. Because the score Whitetails only they provide the most intensive and complete measuring training available.
Every Year they hold an Annual Banquet which I hear is quite the event, I will be going to my first one this year. The 2007 Awards Banquet is scheduled for Juy 21st. from 1 p.m. - 8 p.m., why so long you ask. Well that is because they are going to have 100 of the best trophy mounts on hand for viewing, a multi course sit down dinner, state of the art computer generated slide show, auctioned and raffled hunts and door prizes.
