Arkansas Deer Hunt
Southwest Arkansas Buckmasters will be hosting a rifle hunt for whitetail deer (one deer, either sex) for BADF disabled hunters near Foreman, AR November 12th through 14th, 2008. Hunters must be able to arrive by 11:00 AM on November 12th and are welcome to bring a non-hunting companion. Four disabled hunters and two alternates will be drawn for this event. Last year was very successful with all six hunters taking a deer. We have added a few more hunting leases in the area to give us more opportunities to put you on a nice buck or doe.
All hunters will be responsible for their travel, license, lodging and meals (however, some meals will be provided). There are very nice hotel accommodations (HC accessible) less than 20 minutes away from the hunt HQ. We will make all room arrangements for the hunters after the draw is completed. The cost of a 3-day non-resident license is $100.00. Hunters born after December 31, 1968 must possess a valid hunter’s safety card. All hunt applications must be received by September 1, 2008. Hunters who are drawn will be notified no later than September 27, 2008. Please do not apply for this hunt unless you are serious about attending.
