Best raffle you ever won

[rootacres]

I spent $100 on 3 tickets to win a custom rifle build from Griffin and Howe at a DSC event in Traverse City Michigan. I won. Came with a caliber of choice, defiance action, manners stock (I dropped it in a HNT26), proof barrel, hard case, spartan bipod, etc. The kit started at $6,750 if I wanted to go buy one. So basically won a $7k rifle off of $100 in raffle tickets.

I won an all exclusive elk hunt to Quinlan Ranch in Chama, NM in 2018 valued at 10K. We were at the Alleghany Sniper Challenge in Spring of 2018 and they gave everyone a chance to roll "snakes eyes" for the trip. There were about 60 people rolling the dice. Second time through the group I got lucky and won.

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.

I am the guy that doesn’t draw a tag with 95% odds, I have never won anything

I won $1100 at bingo, haha. On the other hand, my brother won free gas for a year from a local gas station and his GF, at that time, won a ford escape off of a McDonald's coffee giveaway.

I remember someone winning a lot more via McDonalds coffee

I was once one of the 8 of 208 applicants for an extra doe whitetail tag with a quota of 200. On the opposite end of the spectrum I drew a Nevada late rifle bull hunt this year with 4 points. Luck cuts both ways

I won a Clay Pigeon launcher in 2009 at a SFW Banquet. Only thing I have ever won. Still riding that high

I know this thread is a few months old, but in 2021, after not drawing any premium tags, I spent about $350 on raffle tickets and won a California Roosevelt elk tag on private land DIY. We befriended one of the ranchers we had permission to hunt on’s property and harvest a bull that broke the 400” mark. That is my only elk thus far and a hard one to beat. I hope everyone is enjoying their Easter.

We won a beautiful painting at a Kindney Foundation dinner. And last year I won a fantastic Stone Glacier pack right here.

We won a $500 credit to a bar/restaurant in downtown Boise.

Blew it all with a bunch of family the night before my mom’s celebration of life.

Pretty good way to see it go.

I drew a coveted NM elk tag last year. The only thing close to a raffle I've ever won.

Back in freshman year of high school I won the main raffle of an archery league for an outfitted archery antelope hunt in wyoming. A life changing first experience out west with my dad. Even got to put my tag on a p&y buck

I won a Winchester 20 gauge pump one time.

It was at a 200 gun raffle and there was 50 kegs of yuengling beer for the taking and I was extremely drunk. I was there for the party. I took the cash payout on the gun. Never even looked at it.

Not me, but my buddy that I went to the Alaska Wild Sheep Foundation banquet with last night won the $3000 door prize! He could only spend it at the banquet and could use it on raffle tickets, drinks, silent auctions, and hunt auctions. It was basically monopoly money, and he had to spend it all last night. He ended up buying $2600 worth of raffle tickets and bought/won a $400 silent auction for a weekend for two at a Airbnb in Talkeetna. Unfortunately, he didn’t win anything with his raffle tickets. Oh, he also bought me a beer with his winnings.
