Arizona Big Game Super Raffle offers bear, mountain lion, javelina all-inclusive guided hunt package

 

Time is running out to enter a special fall raffle that will give one lucky hunter a unique opportunity to triple his or her hunting pleasure with an all-inclusive guided package.


The Arizona Game and Fish Commission annually awards the Arizona Big Game Super Raffle (AZBGSR) a total of 10 Special Big Game Tags, one for each of the state’s big game species — bighorn sheep, elk, mule deer, white-tailed deer, pronghorn, bison, turkey, bear, javelina and mountain lion. Those tags are raffled each July, and all proceeds are used to further wildlife conservation efforts. 


AZBGSR also received three additional tags this year, which the nonprofit is promoting as “A Uniquely Southwest Hunt” for bear, mountain lion and javelina. Here’s how it works:

  • Raffle tickets are $25 each. Order online at arizonabiggamesuperraffle.com.
  • The deadline to purchase raffle tickets is 10 p.m., Dec. 1, 2020.
  • The drawing will be conducted Dec. 7, 2020.
  • The winner can hunt all three species for 365 days (Aug. 15, 2021-Aug. 14, 2022).

The package also includes seven days of guiding services with an Arizona outfitter, Dieringer Outfitters, as well as meals and lodging. 


Every dollar raised through the raffle is returned to the Arizona Game and Fish Department and managed by the Arizona Habitat Partnership Committee. With input from local habitat partners across the state and sponsoring organizations involved in the fundraising, project priorities are determined that will provide the most benefit to each species. 


AZBGSR’s annual raffle will resume in December. In the 15-year history of the raffle, more than $8.4 million has been raised for wildlife and wildlife management in Arizona. This year’s event generated $864,415, crushing the previous record of $692,500 set in 2018.
