2012 KY, Fall, Bull Elk Tag up for grabs!

Hi everyone,
I am proud to announce that the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources Commission has awarded its second Bull Elk Tag to our N. KY. Chapter #481 Quail Unlimited. This tag is for the 2012 Fall Season and again is good in any zone for any legal weapon.
Our QU Chapter is going to raffle this tag as we did with the first one earlier this year. The only thing required is a resident or non-resident hunting license if you should win. All elk permit fees, ($30.00 resident) and ($365.00 non-resident) have been waived.
Tickets are being sold now and all proceeds will be used to further our conservation projects. There will be only 200 tickets sold and they are $100.00 per ticket. You can email or PM me if interested. Also, go to QU's website (www.qu.org) for verification if you would like. We did that so people would know that this is a legitimate project. More information is there and it is currently the 3RD item down on QU's home page. Drawing will be held at Elk Creek Sporting Clays in Owenton, KY. April 28, 2012 at 5:00pm. Each entrant will be notified of the name, city and state of the winner. The winner will be notified by registered mail.
If you participate in our 2012 fundraiser prior to December 31, 2011, that donation may be deducted on your 2011 tax filing. QU is a 501-C-3 non-profit organization.
Good hunting to all, Robert Smith, N. Ky. Chapter #481 QU aka Oletrapper

I posted a link of this page on my facebook so hopefully you will get a few hits from it...

Thank you Justintohunting, That's great. I forgot to mention in an earlier post that one of the entries I received had a real nice letter inside telling me that she was buying the ticket for her husband and will use it for a stocking stuffer this Christmas. What a nice gift and a wonderful idea. No, I am not going to tell anyone her name. lol Good luck to the hubby in the draw. Thanks for the link.

I want to applaud Kentucky in how they have handled the Elk herd management. Very few DNR's have got it as right as they seem to be doing. The elk are thriving and Kentucky has made it an amazing Hunt experience. 80 percent success is unheard of in anything but maybe small game hunting. For me personally, this is a dream hunt I hope to be lucky enough to go on some day.

Just wanted to let you know, if you are serious about participating in our fundraiser, please hurry. Less than 60 tickets remain. Thanks to all you guys and gal for helping us make this a great success.

Hello everyone,

The N. Ky. Chapter #481 held the drawing for the Commission Bull Elk Tag on April 28th at 5:00pm. The drawing was held at the Elk Creek Hunt Club and Sporting Clays in Owenton, KY. One of the elk club’s employees reached into the box and pulled out 1 of the 200 plastic eggs. The egg contained ticket stub #028, which belonged to Leo Essex of Loretto, KY. Congratulations Leo! We hope you score a record bull elk this fall.

We would like to thank all who participated in our fundraiser. A special thank you to those who operate this forum and who allowed our post. We could not have done it without your help and permission. All 200 tickets were sold and over $18,500.00 will be used for our conservation projects. A detailed financial report should be available by the end of this month. If you should have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Yours in conservation, Robert Smith, N. Ky. Chapter #481, Quail Unlimited
