The Alabama Society of Traditional Bowmen (ASTB) is auctioning off two spots for a January, 2027 Alabama Bowhunt for deer with Jason Samkowiak and Steve Turay. All proceeds go to Children's of Alabama Hospitals. Details are; 1. Three day hunt with meals and lodging. 4th night lodging is fine if it helps travel. Flexible dates but dog tracking stats say the best time is Martin Luther King. The hunt will be in Montgomery County, Alabama on 650 acres. 3. There will be two winners on the hunt. 4. Bidders are only bidding on one hunt. Highest bidder has the option to take both spots for twice the bid. Otherwise the second spot goes to the second highest bidder. 5. Online bidders will submit their highest bid amount but will get the hunt for no more than $50 higher than second highest bid. 6. All online bidders will be informed of the results after live auction on April 11. 7. Submit your bid and/or questions to Norman Parks by text or email (334)-462-9346, normaneparks@gmail.com

Online bidding ends at midnight on April 10.    Live auction is at 5:00 pm on April 12.    Cell service is very limited at our venue, but I will try the contact online bidders during the process but to be safe, you should submit your highest bid and I will bid on your behalf in $50 increments.

Right now based in bids there is a chance of grtting a steal on this hunt.   The three days with Jason and Northern Mist Steve is a rare opportunity but the hunting is hreat too.   All proceeds go to Children's of Alabama Hospital.

For those of you who don't know, Alabama rut peaks in the last half of January well after most seasons have ended

Yes, great input Norman!

Jeremy Hall from Tennessee bid $1000 for the hunt but got it for $650 because the second place bid was $600.    Tim Carter from Alabama will be joining Jason Samkowiak and Steve Turay next January.   Looking forward to another great time.    Overall our auction raised over $9,000 for Children's of Alabama Hospital.   Thanks Jeremy and Tim!
