I am posting this for @Larry Shores (He is a member here)
As most of you probably know, Phillip Smythe was severely injured by an elephant in the Save Valley Conservancy and succumbed to his injuries. He left a pregnant wife and two small children. The medical bills have to be enormous. The family needs help.
The African Wildlife Conservation Coalition (AWCC - https://www.africanwildlifecc.org) is a US based not for profit corporation which has been approved as a 501c3 by the Internal Revenue Service. AWCC is going to conduct four raffles with 100% of the proceeds going to Phillip Smythe and his family.
The raffles will work as follows. Upon receipt of payment, each purchaser will receive a number or numbers (if more than one ticket is purchased) which will be assigned in consecutive ascending order. At noon, eastern time on February 1, 2021, the drawing will be held using a random number generator to select the winning person.
The raffle items are as follows:
ITEM #1
A new in box, Beretta 12 gauge Ducks Unlimited commemorative gun.
Donations are $100 each with a maximum of 100 tickets sold.
This limited to US residents ONLY!
ITEM #2
This is a 3 day hog hunt for 1 at my personal ranch in Levy County, Florida. No limit on the number of hogs. Includes food during the hunt, lodging during the hunt, guiding, and field prep. Does not include transportation to and from the ranch. Hotels and meals, if any before and after the hunt are not included. Any taxidermy is not included.
We can hunt them any way we want including at night with thermal imaging equipment which I have.
In 2019, I killed 40 hogs and guests killed 19. Under most circumstances, there are a lot of hogs. An episode of Nick's Wild Ride was filmed at my ranch earlier this year.
Also, I have various waterways which I have stocked. The winner can fish if they like for no charge. Spring fishing is incredible.
Donations are $100 each with a maximum of 250 tickets sold.
ITEM 3- PHEASANT HUNT FOR TWO IN SOUTH DAKOTA
South Dakota Wild Pheasant Hunt for Two Hunters 2021
5 nights lodging with 5-6 days hunting at Bird Dog Bunkhouse in Gettysburg, SD
Valid October 15-December 19, 2021 for mutually agreed upon dates
Dates will be set with raffle winners by May or June 2021
Three excellent meals per day will be furnished if hunters choose to come between October 25 to November 23.
Hunters are encouraged to bring their own dogs or if they do not have a dog one will be provided during dates of 10/25-11/23.
Hunters will drive to Gettysburg, SD since there is no commercial airport.
We hunt primarily public land not relying on private farms to have excellent hunting. South Dakota is well set up for public hunting on "Walk In Areas", "Game Production Areas'', "Waterfowl Production Areas", State and Bureau of Reclamation lands. There are so many good places to hunt in a 40 mile radius that one can't begin to cover them all. We have very minimal hunting pressure from any other hunters.
These are all wild pheasants not any pen raised birds. The hunting and bird numbers are excellent! Hunters see and shoot at many birds each day. Being a decent wing shot will of course increase your success. Finding birds is never a problem. I personally have shot my limit of three roosters every day for the past three years. I hunt 30 days concurrently each year.
This winter in South Dakota has been very mild which should promote high numbers of pheasants for fall 2021.
The house is very comfortable for guests. WiFi and TV is provided.
Dogs have an excellent bunkhouse in the backyard.
Indoor bird cleaning area and freezer is provided.
Not included are:
SD Hunting license and Conservation Stamp ($150)
Shotguns
Shotgun shells
Beer, wine or liquor is BYOB
We always have FUN!
Any questions can be answered at dukxdog@gmail.com
Tickets are $100 each with a maximum of 250 sold.
