Default New Mexico Lt Governors Tag

In 2003 the New Mexico legislature passed, and Governor Bill Richardson signed a law authorizing the first statewide deer enhancement tags in NM history. These tags are significant because the money raised from them will be used to enhance deer habitat throughout the entire state of New Mexico.

The hunter who wins or purchases either tag will have an unprecedented four month season which runs from September 1st 2004 to December 31st 2004. This presents a unique opportunity to hunt record book deer throughout the rut. The tags allow for hunting throughout the entire state of New Mexico on public land, and on private land through personal arrangement with the landowner. The tag is valid for any antlered Mule Deer or Coues Whitetail Deer.

Numerous areas of New Mexico consistently produce huge trophy Mule Deer. New Mexico also boasts a quality population of Coues Whitetail deer.

The raffle will be conducted by the San Juan Chapter of MDF located in Farmington NM. The drawing will be held at the Farmington MDF banquet on July 23, 2004.

Tickets for the raffle tag may be purchased by mailing payment to PO Box 1284
Flora Vista, NM 87415 by phone with a major credit card 505-793-8476 or by email at [email protected].

The tickets are for $20.00 each.

The tag is transferable. At the national auction the second tag went for $35,000.

Just had a large ad in the local paper Thursday. We are starting to get some outfitters calling about getting tickets.

Also how many of you are involved in some type of conservation organization?

Drawing is approaching.

So far we have only sold 110 tickets!!!!

Better odds than most state drawings.

Yes,

MDF got two tags one they auctioned off at national and got $35,000.

Note you can sell this tag if you win.

Very good odds.
