Michigan Youth Sportsmen Competition
Promoting Michigan’s Outdoor Heritage.
“Over the years of competing in MYSC, I have made new friends, received awards, and had fun. Most of all, though, through it I realized that if you just work hard enough on something, your perseverance will pay off.”
- Clayton, MYHEC participant
Michigan Youth Sportsmen Competition is an annual two-day program exclusively for Hunter Education Course graduates from North America up to 18 years of age.
The program provides youth with a unique opportunity to test their skills in a variety of hunting techniques.
Because the events are conducted in simulated hunting conditions, Michigan Youth Sportsmen Competition provides the best test of a young hunter’s skills short of an actual situation afield.
Though participants are scored and ranked in all MYSC events, the program’s competitive edge is diminished as the real “challenge” focuses on personal improvement and sportsmanship.
