Very cool ! I linked in from the State of Tennessee’s website so I’m pretty confident it’s legitimate.
Sure it's legit. They do this raffle every year. I seen a tv program on it last year with one of the guys that won on the raffle. This place is not far from where I live.
Friend of mine bought the tag a few years back, when it was auctioned off. Cost not much more than a Western trip for elk. We had a great time and he took a nice 6X6. They went to the lottery the next year and think they brought in over $200K for the same tag. So, definitely a good idea for TWRA and the money goes to elk so good for everyone. I get a free draw for the standard drawing, as I have a lifetime license. Will buy one more chance in the lottery for the premier tag, as the money does go to a good cause. And it is beautiful country to hunt and only 3 hours from here. Wish me luck!
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~
Been participating for several years. Maybe in my lifetime there will be an open season in TN
Yea I was deer hunting over in Buchanan County VA 2 years ago and one morning I heard a Elk bugle. At first it didn't process in my head what I heard and then it hit me. He sounded close but I never could see him in that thick timber. They are starting to get a healthy heard of Elk in TN, KY and here in VA. Maybe in our lifetime or my son, don't know.
