Best Chance at a Desert Bighorn!!

[ramslam]

The Washington Wild Sheep Foundation is offering another sheep hunt in our annual members' only raffle.  Two years ago it was a Dall, last year it was a Stone so this year we secured a desert bighorn sheep hunt in Mexico with El Fuerte Outfitters.  Check out their website at www.elfuerte.com.   Attached is the flyer which can be printed and mailed/faxed in to our chapter.  Deadline is late Saturday afternoon at the Seattle Sportsmen's Convention in Bellevue.  You must be a current member to purchase tickets/win and the membership application is included on the flyer. 

As of yesterday only 252 tickets have been purchased!

PS--we already have another Dall hunt lined up for next year!

Hey I know the kid that drew it last year and he harvested a really nice stone sheep for a cheap raffle ticket. Join up and buy a ticket, better yet come to the event buy them and watch them draw the winner. Might be you.

Agreed, it sure is nice to have the winner in house at the banquet!

Makes the entire experience pretty special.

$45,000

Or a $25 raffle ticket!

the odds of winning this raffle would be much better than any other sheep raffle or permit in this state or probably any other state for that matter. Your odds in this state for a permit are something like 1/1000 or worse. Not sure how many they will sell but it won't be 1000 I bet. Wish they could because it would go for a good cause. More sheep on the mountain.

I'll let out a big ol yell when my name is read, only a month to go!

Is there a number to call if you want to buy tickets...is the winner announced on sat at the banquet? what if you want to mail in a check?

[ramslam]

If you are not able to download and print the order form let me know and we can work something out. 

We have a local accountant come into the Seattle Sportsmen's convention and draw the winning tickets.  There is usually quite a crowd around our booth at that time!

Ridge...that would be pretty cool huh?  First a bighorn and then a desert!!!!!!!!!!!!  You might get ran out of the building!

I hope you sell a ton of tickets.

This is no doubt the best chance a guy has to go sheep hunting, not to mention the expensive species, DESSERT !!!!

I hope my name slides to the top of the pile!

[starbailey]

I hope you aren't to disappointed in winning second place cuz I already have the winning ticket in my pocket! But I'll let you come along to Mexico with me.

[ramslam]

Sorry Scree and Starbailey but you have received some bad information.  Rumor on the street is the winning ticket has NOT been purchased yet!  I think that's great news because I haven't bought any yet!!!
