naturebob Report post Posted May 10, 2014 3K aint chit. There was a guy that paid 120k for the Elk tag and didn't go the last weeks of the hunt. Said He had back problems. If I had that kind of $ I would of found a DR. with meds or a needle. I know that was just a status thing with him and his buddies. This was about 6 years ago. He should of at least donated it if it was possible...........BOB! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelhead Report post Posted May 13, 2014 Are you kidding? Who in their right mind would pay that for a turkey?Someone who: 1) Wants to hunt AZ Goulds or Rios really bad. 2) Has disposable income and wants to fund turkey restoration in AZ. I've got #1 covered, #2 well ... uh, my income is disposed of monthly. I do pick up a few raffle tags for turkey which does help with turkey restoration.

125coues Report post Posted May 13, 2014 just to let you know it was 3 years ago i did a phone bid for the tag and i stopped bidding at 4500.00 and i think that was the year some one payed over 5K for the tag,the next year my wife bought it for me at the AZ ELK Society banquet for 3600.oo .and i thougt it was a good deal.I also had a great time on the hunt as i was able to go into alot of the units early and see the birds as early as march .And yes i will be at the SCI banquet to bid again because it is one way that my wife and i like to help donate money to a great cause and if i win the bid super great i get to go hunting for goulds again and if not thats great to because atleast i know that someone else out there fills as i do . I hope to see some of you at the SCI banquet this year and we can all help raise money for a great cause. Mark 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
