azhuntnut Report post Posted February 15, 2007 Can you give me a little more info on this banquet? Are there some good prizes in the raffles? What about games for prizes? I have been a chapter member with the RMEF Phx Chapter for some years now and know how theres are run. Do you know if it is kind of like the RMEF banquet. How many people usually attend? Thanks in advance. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bowhunter4life Report post Posted February 15, 2007 they have around 300 people,it is alot like the r.m.e.f. with card games, silent, live, bucket raffles. there are always good hunts to have and they have the javi,bear and buffalo auction tags this year. I'll be there also.mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bowhuntinmaniac Report post Posted February 15, 2007 1 thing that I think is a plus for this banquet is it is very family oriented. Kids are involved and have special drawings just for them, plus a special Ladies' table. There are live and silent auctions, but there are alot of bucket raffles too. Some of the items I know that wiil be there are Swaro 15x56's, 2 DB blinds, Rinehart targets, bows arrows and everything you can imagine to equip yer bow with. Also, several hunts and some Commissioner tags. Hope to see y'all there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redman Report post Posted February 20, 2007 I know its a bow hunting banquet, but somebody should have told them its opening weekend for rifle javellina, and some fathers (like me) have their sons hunting this weekend. I would have liked to make it. Redman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
