Florida Farm Bureau’s Young Farmer and Rancher Leadership Program is hosting a limited donation drawing for a weekend turkey hunt with Commissioner of Agriculture Charles H. Bronson.

Only 100 tickets will be sold at $50 per ticket. The winner receives a two-person, guided Osceola turkey hunt at Evans Farm in North Florida. With many tickets still left and just 10 days to go before the drawing, the odds are looking even better.

“This is an opportunity for anyone interested in the chance for a unique hunting experience and to help support our Young Farmer & Rancher program,” said Florida Farm Bureau President John L. Hoblick.

The drawing will be held on Feb. 1. Tickets are available by contacting Shaun Fulford at 352-378-8100, ext. 1030 or by email, Shaun.Fulford@ffbf.org

“There will be a one gobbler limit per person,” Hoblick said. “A high degree of success can be anticipated if an individual can sit still and shoot straight.”

The hunt is tentatively scheduled for the weekend of March 27, based on the Commissioner’s schedule. Hunters will arrive on Friday afternoon and depart after the Sunday morning hunt. The hunt will include full accommodations and guide service.
