The date of the hunt will be Sat. Nov. 11th thru the evening of Thursday Nov. 16th. Winners can arrive any time after 3 p.m. Friday the 10th. Sat. morning, you will be given a tour of the farm. After which, you may begin hanging stands and hunting. This is a semi-guidedTROPHY HUNT. They require a 125†minimum buck, or better.

This raffle will be conducted on a “Pledge†system. There will only be 100 pledges accepted. You will pledge to purchase one opportunity. The funds must be received within 7 days of your pledge. After 7 days has passed without receipt of funds……your opportunity will be open to pledge again. Only the first 100 will receive a PM containing payment information. This PM will come from WR. If you do not receive a PM from WR , you will be on the standby list for any pledges that become available due to non payment. This will be conducted on a first come basis.

Numbers will be issued after payment is received. The number given to your pledge will be a random number. For example…..the first pledge will not necessarily be issued the number 1. The winning number will be picked by an unknown (at this time) on-line personality. The online personality will be named at a later date. They will post the number, without knowing who the number belongs to.

This raffle will begin on Sat. March 25th at 10:00 a.m. We will open a new thread for pledges beginning Sat. March 25th at 10:00 a.m. on ASN’s General Forum, it will be a sticky at the top. All Pledges must be posted in that thread, not here.

The winning number will be posted seven days after the last pledge has been paid for. The actual date and time of the drawing will be posted when it becomes available.

Only ONE pledge per person.

Saturday

In order to be fair about it, we want to wait till Sat. morning at 10 a.m. before we accept pledges. First come basis.

There will be a new thread started on ASN. It will be dedicated to pledges.

You will need to register on ASN before you can post. Probably don't want to wait till Sat. to do that

Someone will win a memorable experience, at the very least:banana:

Good luck with the raffle....:cheers: I travel Pike County at least 4 time a week cross I72...... I have seen some real bruisers on that 30 miles of hiway. Saw about 75 deer just monday evening in less than 15 miles.......

Some great hunting there for sure......

Pike County

I have never hunted there. Only heard stories. Everyone has heard about Pike County.......I bet there's a reason.

I don't think the winner's will be disappointed in the hunt. The outfitter has told me......" I am confident the guys will get a shot" I am geussing he has had some guys miss before

You will be placing your own stands. They will show you around and recommend stand placement, but not tell you where you have to hunt.

Only 27 hours left guys........you don't want to be # 101 for this hunt

It\'s ON

Time to pledge:wave:

When the number is drawn.......I will post it here.

Thanks.

Thanks for posting the number over here. Myself and a friend bought chances this morning,,,,,,,,,How long do you expect before the drive is done and the magic number comes out????

:cheers::cheers:

 

[arkysaw]

Thanks Henry

Thanks Henry and everyone else that pledges.

I am not sure how long this will take. We would like to receive 100 pledges for the raffle. If a couple weeks go by and we decide this will not happen, then we will set a date for the drawing. I honestly don't think it will take 2 weeks to get the 100 pledges. The drawing will take place 7 days after the last pledge money is received. I will keep this site posted........I want to thank MWT for allowing this post.

Please tell as many as possible about this raffle. This will benefit everyone who attends the Bragging Rights Shoot in July. Some of the best eating and company you can imagine.
Everyone is invited to the BRS........we will make you feel at home
