Ever wanted to "Super Hunt" in Idaho?
December 25, 2014
If someone you know loves hunting (and that someone might be you), and dreams of hunting moose, elk, deer, or pronghorn in any and all areas of the state during any and all hunts, including general hunts and controlled hunts, then think about Idaho's Super Hunt drawing.

Buy your favorite hunter a chance to win the hunt of a lifetime (and yes, we know your favorite hunter might be you). The first drawing is still several months away, but it's not too early to enter Idaho Fish and Game's Super Hunt.

The Super Hunt is a fund-raising drawing for the ultimate hunting opportunity. The tags are handed out to winners in two drawings. Entries are drawn for elk, deer, pronghorn, and moose tags. Winners can participate in any open hunt in the state for deer, elk, pronghorn or moose. That includes general hunts and controlled hunts.

The first drawing is in June when entries are drawn for eight elk, eight deer and eight pronghorn hunts as well as one moose hunt. One Super Hunt Combo entry also will be drawn that will entitle the winner to four hunts – one each elk, deer, pronghorn and moose.

An entry for one Super Hunt for one species costs $6.  Anyone can purchase as many entries as they wish, all for $6.

To enter the drawing for the Super Hunt Combo (four hunts for all four species) costs $20 per entry, and again a person may enter as many times as they wish.

Entries can be purchased online at: https://id.outdoorcentral.us/ , at license vendors, and Fish and Game offices, or by phone at 800-554-8685, or by mail at: IDFG License Section, P.O. Box 25, Boise, ID 83707. Money from the sale of entries supports the Access Yes! program, which compensates landowners who provide access to, or across private land.

For information about this program contact local Fish and Game officials or visit the Website at: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/ifwis/huntplanner/accessyesguide.aspx . Super Hunt winners can now share their stories on Fish and Game's Super Hunt Facebook book page, available at http://www.facebook.com/pages/SuperHunt-Idaho/171792339534643
