Have you ever won some random big raffle item? Not talking about a NWTF raffle, that's easy. A big random raffle ticket you thought you were wasting your money on. A lucky draw.
 
Nope. I am not very lucky but I keep buying in the hopes to win sometime. Hell I can't even win a 50/50 drawing. You never know maybe next time will be the one.

When I was 18 (1994) I spent $20 at some banquet and won $500. My dad suggested to donate $100 back, so I did. Then I used the rest of the money to buy a Browning A Bolt in 7mm. I hunted with that gun and killed a pile of deer and elk until about 2010. I got tired of it rusting, it wasn't stainless. So I bought another in stainless but 300wm.

At the time, I was a poor college student and had an old hand me down 30-06. So it was a big deal to me.

Since then I have won several larger raffles of different types of guns. But that first was the most significant since I didn't have a any money at all. Now I sponsor probably 8 or so banquets a year and give guns away or donate them to youth programs.

Last year I drew the lone desert sheep tag that Colorado makes available to non-residents. The year before that my son drew a John Day California bighorn tag. Not sure either of us will top those.

Those are some crazy odds

I did win a gas station raffle in northern Wisconsin when visiting a colleague’s field site, this was decades ago. Won a rem 700 .338 win mag. Sold it before shooting it.
 
I never win anything. I won a scope
from Cameraland in their monthly drawing on this site. Its not a sheep tag or the powerball, but I was psyched given my history with raffle entries donations.
 
I can’t even win a rifle raffle that’s 450 tickets $5 tickets. Even if I were to have bought 150 of the tickets. Dumb kid.
 
Won $600.00 on the slots once. Promptly cased out and left.

Won in Exos 10-year anniversary podcast contest.
 
Won a Rem 700 .270WSM a long time ago, and won the CA Statewide Fundraiser Antelope tag a few years back... killed an 86" net goat that is in the top 10 all time for CA.
