Ministers Elk Tag
 
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kHYYH5SBo28

Looks like this is the auctioned Ministers Elk tag for last year. He mentioned a couple interesting things. Says there will be a Moose and Antelope tag as well for 2022. Any validity to that?

Good video. Typical hunt on farmland and seemed pretty gracious

That’s what I thought. Not a whole bunch of fluff and smoke blowing.

So this guy got the Alberta Minister's tag...How many tickets did he buy?

Please, if you think I am paranoid, tell me...

So this guy gets the Alberta draw, and magically gets to hunt about 10 miles away where the number one Pope and Young got shot last year. Which is near Vegreville ( I believe and correct me if I'm wrong).

Do us peasants have a chance with these tags?

I don't know about this...please prove me wrong...:)

He bought the auction tag. He was the highest bidder.

He purchased it at auction. Then hired an outfitter.

Yes, you have a chance at that tag, in the resident's raffle.

Yes we do.. my wife won the resident elk tag this year. Tickets were A birthday present for me but she put her name down when she purchased them. She had shot a rifle once in her life before this , never killed anything. Turned out to be the best thing that happened.... my turn next year, hahaha

Good Bull,not much of an Elk hunt though.I wonder what bullet he used in his rifle.Seems like the elk was hit well enough, but never went down until the follow up shot.

They didn't auction either with elk, mule, and sheep at wsf. Other than that, I haven't heard of it happening.

Probably a Barnes hahaha

What's interesting about this video is that he shot an elk early December in a zone near vegreville. "10 miles from the record bull" as he states.

Correct me if I am wrong, but there is no zone close to that ars that has a December antlered Elk season. Also, in the ministers tag description no zone close to there is valid for December 1-31 for a bull....

cowmanbob 01-23-2022 05:14 PM

A ministers tag should have yielded a bigger elk.

They have never had an antelope or moose tag yet
Not sure of the point
No one wants to promote the raffle and no one wants to buy the tickets

For the ministers tag you get an extra month in most zones

According to the details of The Ministers Tag attached. A zone near vegreville would not be valid for december

Didn’t sound like he had much time. And seemed he was happy so that’s all that matters I guess.

Better call fish and wild life if you think it’s poached.

It amazes me how many people post **** on here and they don’t even have a clue about it. Take five minutes and do some research before you start worrying about what other people are doing.

He shot it with a 7lrm Gunwerks rifle
I found a video and it looks like he uses bergers

He said coming 2022.I’ve never really followed these so this whole process is new. Has the 2022 raffle been decided?

What's up with the stud/sling on the side of the stock? Can't figure out the advantage to that

The raffles tickets haven't gone on sale yet, just the auction tags have been sold.

Flush cups
eliminates the swivel studs on the bottom of your rifle that can catch on a bag when your shooting and throw off your poi
