The money raised in this particular auction goes directly to habitat and wildlife conservation. I applaud the men who bought these tags and the rest of the tags sold at auction in the past several months. The realities of the world we live in is that we need habitat and wildlife conservation to continue to have great places to go hunt, or all of the great land to hunt on will get bought, developed, closed off to the public or locked away! Upset that this is a rich mans game, then go out and do something about it by joining one of the many conservation organizations or start your own. Join a committee and raise some money to buy land and open it up to all hunters and apply for hunts and maybe you can get lucky. I hear hunters all the time saying that they wish they could go elk hunting or moose hunting or whatever. Well life is going to pass you by quick, so you better get out there and do something NOW!

I dream of taking a great hunt. But then I am getting older and now live on an ssi check and so those dreams are slipping ou the window. I don't look for all this raffle to make many changes for the general public.Throwing money at problems never seems to solve them.Unless we get dedicated wildlife peole who don't care about the money,but problems thing won't get any better. There is plenty of money avalible if people in power cared. The sfw is about the only group who have got it right, they go after the politicians. If I were younger and they were in my state i'd join. Oh well at least I got to hunt back in the day. I sure hate to beleive it, but I do beleive it is defenity heading in the direction of the dollar. I dream of taking a great hunt.

I'm glad these groups, while raising tons of $$ for conservation from those who can afford it, aren't forgetting about the average joes who just love to hunt.

I agree with you to a certain degree, but this is an annual event to raise money, and it looks like it worked very well. No you and I will probably never be able to buy one of these, but we will benfit from the dollars these guys spent. You have to find the good in everything and remain positive.
