This will be a fri, sat, sun am hunt at a 400+acre private farm in NC. It will take place during the 2013 spring season. Our season runs from mid april to mid may. dates will be worked out after winner is determined. Farm is between Kinston and New Bern NC with closes small town being Dover. ncwildlife.org. for info on tags etc.
Now for the good stuff.
1st legend: Joey Buchanan from Oxford MS will be in camp and hunting with us. Most on here will know who he is but, for anyone who don't, He is to turkey hunting, what Gene and Barry Wensel are to whitetail hunting. Only person to take the royal slam with trad gear. He also makes his own bows, most of his calls and gear. He's given seminars at Kzoo, PBS, and Tannehill. All that and he's a regular guy too.
2nd legend:Cory Mattson from NC. Cory is a longtime member of PBS. He's taken game in Africa, Oz, and all over the US. Cory and Joey were charter members of the paradise club in ga and were in on the beginnings of hog hunting with a bow and arrow. Cory makes his living cooking. He's a 5 star chef and will be planning most of the meals on this hunt.
3rd Legend: Bernie Dunn. retired jarhead and tradgang icon. Bernie will be along as official Photographer and story teller. We also gonna get him out in a blind if he wants.
Your hunt can be blind or blindless. Guided or unguided. We aim to please.
OK here's the deal. After talking with Terry and all the above legends, and pondering for a few days, this is how it's gonna work.
This will be a game of chance and at the end all names will go into a bucket and Bernie will draw one winner and two alternates. I will video the drawing and post it on tradgang.
$20 for one chance or $100 for 6 chances. Limit is $100 or 6 chances per member. this way everyone has roughly the same chance to win.
When the bidding opens all you have to do is send a check or M/O, (be sure and make em out to St Jude) to Doug Campbell, 46 W Boulder Rd, McLeod, MT 59052 or paypal via instructions at the top of this forum, your TG membership # and batman turkey hunt on it. Then post on the thread that you are in for 20 or 100. If you post , we are assuming you have sent payment . 5 days after the forum closes we will draw and confirm payment has been received. then will post the results.
I'm not sure how many members are on tradgang but I think it's over 10,000. If half buy a 20 dollar ticket that would be 100,000 for the kids. and someone is gonna get a hell of a hunt a a bargin price.
Sunny Hill won this hunt last time I had it up. You can ask him about the quality of the hunt, food, and accommodations.
