Here is the question.
My buddy recently won the Gould's Turkey Raffle from the NM NWTF. I guess it is a fully transferable tag that includes the other turkey tags and the hunting license. After talking to an outfitter from Silver City for some reason he thinks it is worth $5000. He listed it for sale on an auction site and really thinks he is going to get $2750 - $5000 for it. He has been offered $2500 for it but thinks he can get more.
My question is do you think he is crazy (like I do) for not selling it to the guy that offered him $2500? Don't know much about this turkey other than they live in Unit 27 and they only give 2 tags a year. Are they really worth that kind of $$. Its a darn bird that doesn't fly very well.
What do you NM MM friends think? Really need bring him back to earth on this matter.
