18pxState Fundraisers and a “Friendly Competition�
It’s that time of year when we seem to have a lot of fund raisers to raise money in our states to support our very important state associations that battle and battle to keep our industry moving. As you all know, we have quite a battle going in Missouri and we all appreciate the help we get in a very big way. THANK YOU!
With that in mind I enjoy making donations to the state associations that have always helped us out. There are many more besides the 3 I’m going to list here. If you need a donation for your state fundraiser, just ask me. Its that simple!. Do it on this thread if you like! We have to help each other out! We have to have each others back. And of course we need to be able to move animals.
There are 3 state associations that have asked me for a donation. I wish I could attend them all. Here they are and the dates. Feel free to add your state to this thread.
Iowa February 19<supth</sup
Michigan March 4-5
Wisconsin April 2
So here is my donation to each state:
I will donate 5 straws of semen, one from each of my best 5 bucks. The bucks are:
Payday (527 at 5, 32 inside, 45 drop to drop, 275 6x6 frame, 17 inch tines)
Whoop-D-Do (531 at 4, 36 inside)
Timberrock (441 at 2)
Roaming 727 (265 at 2, 31.5 inside)
Big Bonus (221 at 1, 6x6)
Each straw is put into an unmarked envelope. There are 5 envelopes total with no one knowing which straw is in which envelope. Envelopes are auctioned off one at a time. If the auctioneer feels like the first one brings good money, then they can offer the rest at the same price. Or if they like they can auction off each individually. Everyone Wins!
Which state can raise the most money with the donation? Thanks for reading and good luck. There is a lot of information on these bucks on other threads but I will be posting more here. (I will also be asking Troy to put this on Our Missouri Whitetails on facebook.)
