2016-2017 Commissioner's Turkey Tag Raffle

Recommended Posts

 

I'm questioning the AZBGSR. The NWTF raffle we're selling cards for definitely includes Rios, per Comm Order 29.

 

From our flier: HUNT A GOULD’S, MERRIAM’S, or RIO GRANDE TURKEY FROM AUGUST 15, 2016 TO AUGUST 14, 2017 IN ANY UNIT WITH A TURKEY HUNT AS PRESCRIBED BY COMMISSION ORDER

 

That's why I'm questioning the AZBGSR. If our comm tags include Rio, AZBGSR should, too.

 

this could get interesting I hope you are right. Would like the turkey tag (especially if it includes Rio) or optic package they offer. :)

 

 

And I'm hoping you'll win that optics package and sell me those 15x56s for the cost of your tickets (maybe a little more)! :D

Finally got a call back from AGFD. The lady I spoke to is going to get final confirmation from the boss on Monday, but Comm Order 29 supersedes what is on the front page and the ABGSR should include Rios! She also suspects its a relict from pre-Rio days that needs to be updated. She wants final word from the head of the Big Game branch, though! Comm Order 29 says "any bearded turkey" and includes 13A and 13B! She'll call me back on Monday with the final word.

Confirmed this morning that the ABGSR is valid for Rios. Game branch will be calling the ABGSR organizers today to have them correct the website. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Bill!

 

I'll be contacting our other committee member to see how many NWTF Comm Tag cards we have left for the NWTF raffle. Phil and Jim, I received your stuff over the weekend while I was gone at my daughter's soccer tournament. I'll get those squared away in the next day or two.

good new's for those of us waiting to get a Rio tag. Thanks for checking into this for us. Still have not found the SLC 15x56's you are looking for but I'll keep trying. :D

Time to bump this back up. We have 11 cards left in our deck here in Flagstaff. Let's get these sold and hope that one of you buy that winning card! Remember, ALL proceeds go back to turkey research. Tags are good for Merriams, Rio, and Goulds in open units, per Comm Order 29! Let's get these gone by July 24th for the drawing in early August!
