Think You Don’t Have Time to Enter the Hunter Safety Awards? Think Again.

Let’s talk about one of the biggest myths we hear every year: “I’d love to enter the awards… but I just don’t have time.”

Sound familiar?

We get it. The idea of putting together a submission can feel overwhelming. But the truth is, if you’ve done the work, entering doesn’t have to take much time at all.

Step 1: Choose the right categoryStart with the one that best matches the work you’ve already done. Not sure? Use our Nomination Guide to compare the criteria side by side.

Step 2: Use what you already haveMost of the content you need is probably already written — in reports, project briefs, procedures, feedback, or even emails.

Step 3: Follow the guideWe’ve broken each question down clearly. No fluff, no guessing. Just answer honestly, and back it up with real-world examples.

Step 4: Submit online via Award ForceNo printing. No postage. Just upload and submit.
