How much do you spend per year on hunt raffles?

[WiscoHoundsman]

I’ll throw 200 - 500 on sheep raffles again this year as I doubt I’ll ever feel comfortable spending the cash for one. And usually another 100 or so to the local fire department raffle. That’s pretty much it mostly just donations

I look at the raffles as a donation, never figure on winning. Lots of worthy causes. I’ve won a few things, which is a super nice bonus. Latest was a musk ox hunt at the Sheep Show this year.

Usually zero as I most often forget to go out and buy tickets. We can't buy them online here. It's considered gambling I guess.

Damn what state is that? We can actually buy them here in Utah but my buddy’s that bet on games have to drive to Wendover, NV

Does Washington FG have any raffle tags?

Is that new? I definitely bought them when I lived in Washington 3 years ago.

Yeah they new archery world record elk was just killed with one. I’ve never heard of them being illegal

People do win... I won the 2017 Fundraising tag for Antelope in CA and killed a buck that netted 86+in B&C.

I average $3-600 a year on raffle tickets across many states.

I’ve happily spent $2-500 a year but I recently saw the connection to the lottery and now i second guess myself.

Not online. WDFW hasn't sold them online for 10-15 years or so. This is from their website:

Raffle tickets are not available to purchase online or over the telephone. Washington gambling regulations prohibit wire sales. You can purchase tickets at any authorized license dealer.

I’ve never bought Washington raffle tickets but I bought lots from company’s like Huntin fool, the Idaho super draw, and Nevadas raffle when I lived in Washington. I didnt realize you couldn’t by Washington’s online. That’s wild for a state with a weed shop every half mile.

Hey, their weed shops, bikini coffee stands and small casinos every other mile along the road is more important.

As a Washington resident I can't legally purchase raffle tickets online, doesn't matter the raffle at all. Usually is stated in the fine print. What we can do is print out the order form and mail it in. Yes, we have some strange laws. Should be on a RMEF/DU/MDF committee and try to figure out a game that can be played at the banquet that will not run afoul of state gambling laws.
