Default AFGA ministers tag raffle results

Hey folks, I must have missed the fine print on when and where the draw results can be found for the mule deer, elk and sheep ministers raffle? All it says on my raffle tickets and on the AFGA is that the draw was made yesterday on August 4. Does anyone know when and where they post the winners? Thanks

Wonder if Foss will win the sheep tag for a second year in a row

I believe there was a limit of 50 tickets per person imposed.

There is no limit to the amount of tickets one can purchase.
one could essentially buy the draw if they wanted...

I may have been mistaken and but also might be correct. According to this thread some were told that they were limited to a max of 50 per person per day and others were told that it was a max of 50 per person.

Just going off of what I read.

Either way, best of luck to the hunters

If it's the same Robert Logan that is a friend of mine he sure deserves it. I'm going to email him and see.

Cam Foss grew up around Cochrane Alberta hunting and learning the outdoors with brother Adam and his dad Tom Foss. He has been addicted to hunting since a young age and isn’t giving it up anytime soon! Cam has hunted all over North America and recently started traveling over sea’s to hunt Ibex. A strict bow hunter is what makes this guy so unique, because he actually knows how to use it. Cam has taken over 50 animals with his Hoyt bow and been on more than 30 archery sheep kills. Follow along on this video interview to learn what it really takes to become a hunting addict!

If you would like to contact Cam for any information about what he takes in his pack for hunting trips or his over sea’s trips you can contact him on Facebook or Instagram.

Bow only, crazy. That takes some dedication for sure. Especially sheep hunting.

Wealth management at RBC.
Tom is the Executive and son Cam works on his team.

FOSS Wealth Management under RBC dominion securities.

Must be doing well. Good for them. Proof that hardcore bow hunters can also be wealthy. The percentage is not in my favor but ill keep dreaming that one day I can be a millionaire and a bowhunter lol.

Congrats to the lucky buggers that won. I was hoping id get the elk or mule.
Good luck to the successful ones on getting the trophy of a life time.
