$400K Arizona Mule Deer Auction Hunt

[jmscon]

Someone posted in the other big game section about a guy who spent $150K for a WA big horn sheep tag. I decided to check out the auction site and ran across the Arizona tag.

Is it a chance to get your name in the record books or can a person also justify it by saying it helps fund conservation?
How much would you pay to get in the record books?
How much would you donate to conservation?

For the guys buying these tags, paying $400k is like the regular guys paying $400. It's probably a little bit of everything you mentioned and then some that drives them to spend that money. The money has to come from somewhere. I know that.

I'm assuming they could be tax write offs too....

If I won the powerball I'd do it.... The money supposedly goes to the right place, its a tax right off, and I'd get to hunt monster mule deer. Id tell mossback to shove it and get someone else to help me out with the hunt. Some guys wouldn't spend the money on a hunt like this. But like I said if I one the powerball I'd buy some hunts for me, family, and friends. Give some guys that once in a lifetime amazing hunt. You'd be wishing you were my friend. Before I go broke at least LOL

Nice buck but not a fan at all of auction tags. Wish WA would stop before they end up like Utah.
