Project Hunt 2025

Leupold & Stevens has announced the return of its Project Hunt contest for 2025. This unique opportunity gives hunters across the U.S. the chance to have their next hunt professionally filmed and featured on Leupold’s digital platforms.

Project Hunt 2025 is accepting entries from June 2 through June 22, 2025. Two winners—one from the East and one from the West—will be selected to have their hunt captured by a professional filmmaker and turned into Leupold-produced short films. Winners will also receive a complete Leupold optics kit.

“You plan the trip. You lead the hunt. We’ll send a filmmaker to capture the highs, the lows, and everything in between,” said Tim Lesser, vice president of Product Development & Marketing at Leupold & Stevens, Inc. “Whether it’s a once-in-a-lifetime tag or a generational hunt on the family farm, we’re after stories that are relentless, real, and unforgettable.”

Entries must be submitted at Leupold.com/ProjectHunt. Applicants will need to detail what they’re hunting, where they’re hunting (East or West), and why their story is unique. A 2-minute video explaining why your submission should be selected is also required to enter. Winners will be announced in early August 2025, and their hunts will be filmed later in the year. Final films will debut on Leupold’s YouTube and social media channels in 2026.

A complete list of contest rules can be found at Leupold.com/ProjectHunt-Official-Rules.
