The Arizona Big Game Super Raffle is bringing back their special fall raffle that will give one lucky hunter a unique bear, mountain lion, javelina hunt package.
The Arizona Big Game Super Raffle (AZBGSR) received three additional tags again this year, which the nonprofit is promoting as “A Uniquely Southwest Hunt” for bear, mountain lion and javelina. The package includes seven days of guiding services with an Arizona outfitter, Dieringer Outfitters, as well as meals and lodging. The winner will choose the dates with the outfitter!
Here’s how it works:
- The raffle started, Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2021.
- Raffle tickets are $25 each. Order online at https://arizonabiggamesuperraffle.com.
- The deadline to purchase raffle tickets is 10 p.m., November. 30, 2021.
- The drawing will be conducted Dec. 7, 2021.
- The winner can hunt all three species for 365 days (Aug. 15, 2022-Aug. 14, 2023).
- Raffle Tickets must be purchased in the state of Arizona but you do not need to be from Arizona to win!
The Arizona Game and Fish Commission annually awards 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.
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 16-year history of the raffle, more than $9.2 million has been raised for wildlife and wildlife management in Arizona. This year’s event generated $9,178,000.
