New Ranger Cup and TBF program rules

February 26, 2021
To all as you may or may not know the entire White River Marine Group boat owners bonus programs have changed. They are all the same now Ranger Cup (Triton bonus, Nitro Bonus ) for TBF and the state federation Ranger Cup is the same as everyone else now.
There is also a NEW program JUST for TBF. It is called Ranger Federation Bonus program and will be similar to what we had in the past but it is NOT to be called Ranger Cup because it is not.
They really GOOD news is as TBF State Federation you get access to them BOTH! You CANNOT claim them both for the same event but you have access to them both no one else gets this option. It is Ranger’s way of saying thank you federation anglers for your years of support.
So first up is the national RANGER CUP program here are the details of that new redesigned program and it applies Nationwide to everyone.
There is a new nationwide Ranger Cup program https://www.rangerboats.com/ranger-cup.html
Please read carefully as you all need to know this now. Highlights below
We will promote it of course but will handle none of the Ranger CUP program thereafter.
The way the program works now is that it is up to the angler to file for their rewards. The angler of course will want pictures or results etc. from us etc.
