It was great to see the guys bid so much for the tag and raise some money.

I agree Carpsniper too many people loose sight that this money goes back into conservation that benefits all of us.

It was pretty cool seeing the bidding war going on and cheering on Jerry as he kept outbidding the phone bidder.   There was quite a bit of festive bidding going on last night and it was great to see all the money being donated for a great cause.

$40K Is it really worth it? I dont think so! IMO
:dunno: Would rather spend 20k & go with Shockey on his Yukon hunt.

Good for you.  Obviously the purchaser his different ideas.

Well I guess my $1000 I had saved would not have helped me much at the auction. Guess I will just buy MT tags.

Someone is going to have a fun moose hunt. How much did it go for last year?

Yes I was there and there was a pretty good contingent of Hunt-Wa guys there. Had a great time and raised a lot of $ for Washington Wild Sheep.

Both, Dj was bidding on behalf of a guy he has moose hunted with before. Dj has pictures of a bruiser that they have been watching for the last two seasons. When Dj's phone bidder bowed out, Jerry came over and booked a hunt with him. It was great to see so much money raised for conservation last night!

Pretty cool to watch in person!
Since this is the Governors Tag, does all the money go to the Wild Sheep Foundation or WDFW?
