Thanks Oak. Just got my name in the hat for the two rifles and the goat/sheep tag. Maybe I'll hit the lotto...

 

[JoseCuervo]

Just bought tickets, but a little concerned that the gun won't be shipped to me until late June.

I am not sure how that will play with the drawing dates on the Sheep Tag getting sent to me. Will I be needing to do any scouting for the sheep tag, or can I rely on you for that?

Made my yearly donations on the rifles.

 

[MThuntr]

Well that didn't help with keeping within my monthly budget

 

[Oak]

Thanks, gents. Always fun to see the email order pop up and then the post to the thread.

I don't know...I'm more of a rum guy...

I could use a pair of those swaro's.

This is a bit offtopic, but can you contrast the Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep Society and the WSF? With everything that's happened at WSF, I have canceled my membership.

 

[huntin24/7]

I'm probably slow but how do we go about buying tickets?

 

[huntin24/7]

Nevermind. Figured it out.

Me too, my 8.5's aren't cutting it anymore...perhaps the 10x would help...

The Rocky Mountain Bighorn Society is based in Colorado and was established in 1975, two years before the WSF. We are an affiliate of WSF, but are completely autonomous in every aspect, from finances to decision-making. RMBS pays one part time contract staff person, an executive director, who works for the volunteer Board of Directors. RMBS has about 650 members, which is an order of magnitude smaller than WSF. The RMBS has no brick and mortar expenditures...we have a PO Box. We have approved over $1.25 million in funding for research, habitat, management and education projects in the last 5 years. Hope that helps.

Sweet, I look forward to shooting my new gun and checking out impacts through some new glass.

If only I was ever so lucky.

 

[Baerman]

All are fantastic opportunities! Thanks Oak.
That 6.5 is a sweet shooter!

If you're attending the ISE in Denver this week, you can stop by booth #2357 (the CBA youth archery range), fondle the rifles, and purchase your raffle tickets.

Hey Oak,

Can you contrast with FNAWS?

hey oak,

FNAWS changed their name to WSF a few years ago.
