Why are these tags so special?
The season dates for each hunt will be 365 days starting August 15th! There are very few limitations on hunting
areas and the prices for each ticket have been set to give every hunter in the world an opportunity to win a true hunt of a lifetime. Arizona offers some of the best trophy
opportunities in North America for each of these species. A quick review of the both the B&C and P&Y record book will confirm this. (Click for B&C and P&Y websites). If you are after a truly huge mule deer, elk, antelope, Coues deer, desert bighorn sheep, or buffalo, then Arizona is where you need to be. The only huntable population of Gould's turkeys in the United States exists in Southern Arizona and can be hunted with this tag.
Optics Raffle
In addition to these tags is an optics raffle for a package of products donated by
Swarovski. This package will include the 15x56 ER binoculars, 10x42 El binoculars, ST-80 spotting scope with a 20-60x eyepiece, Swarovski Laser Rangefinder and 4-12x50 rifle
scope.
What is the raffle for?
The Super Raffle was launched in 2006 as a way to raise substantial money for wildlife habitat work in
Arizona. After a decade of prolonged drought, exploding human population, and budget shortfalls at the Game & Fish Department, landscape wide project work is critical to the
future of all big game species. Every dollar raised through ticket sales of each species will go directly toward that species. All costs associated with the raffle are covered through Optics raffle ticket sales and contributions from our sponsors.
