My moms boyfriend was lucky enough to win the mule deer raffle tag after only buying 6 tickets. He was able to connect on this bad boy yesterday in the desert unit!

Congrats to the lucky guy.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Tell him good job, nice and wide.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

Awesome...  I love the Desert unit.  I can't wait for the Zombie Apocalypse.  I am going to move over to Potholes and hunt the Desert Unit whenever I feel like it.  Until then I am hoping I draw the tag before I am 70.
