(IN ROOM ONLY BIDDING) RETRIEVING FREEDOM: Retrieving Freedom's Ultimate Sportsman Experience
IN ROOM ONLY BIDDING: This package benefits the life-changing work of Retrieving Freedom, Inc., a nonprofit that provides highly trained Labrador Retriever service dogs to veterans with disabilities and children with autism. The lucky winner of this item will receive a custom Henry Big Boy H006C rifle in .45 Colt. On one side of the rifle, Retrieving Freedom Inc. is stamped in the barrel, RFI is carved in the forearm, a child with a service dog with a flagpole scene and another service dog are inlaid, and 1 in 44 is inscribed in the grip to represent that 1 in 44 children are diagnosed with autism. On the other side of the rifle, Retrieving Freedom Inc. is stamped in the barrel, RFI is carved in the forearm, the RFI logo is inlaid with a landscape of RFI headquarters, "22 Per Day" is inscribed in the grip to represent that 22 per day is the number of veteran suicides, and the RFI logo above the mission statement is inscribed in the stock. The winning bidder of the Henry rifle will also receive a tour of RFI's facility in Missouri, as well as a personally guided Eastern Turkey hunt. You need to see Retrieving Freedom in person to fully understand the impact this organization has on veterans suffering from PTSD and children with autism. A tour alone would be worth the trip to our headquarters in Sedalia, Missouri to see the dogs in action - but since we are located right in the middle of some of the best turkey hunting in the country, we figured you should come up, tour the facility, learn about how we change lives with service dogs and do some turkey hunting and fishing. We want you to make the most of your visit! Your turkey hunting guide will be Retrieving Freedom CEO Brandon Butler, who has completed the World Slam, having harvested all six subspecies of wild turkey. He has successfully hunted turkeys in more than a dozen states but still loses regularly to longbeards. Thankfully, the property is excellent, so chances are you'll have a shot at a big Eastern gobbler. You'll catch some fish, eat well and enjoy your comfortable stay as our guest in the RFI headquarters residence facility as our guest. This is a 2-day guided turkey hunt on private land in Central Missouri for one hunter and includes a private tour and service dog demonstration at RFI, private lake fishing for largemouth bass and crappie and Retrieving Freedom merch.

F. CAPSTICK: 1st ed., N/S "Royal Quest - The Hunting Saga of H.I.H. Prince Abdorreza Pahlavi of Iran
Literature devoted to the often-astonishing experiences of the dedicated hunter/conservationist has no peer when it comes to the biography of the late Prince Abdoreza PAHLAVI of Iran. His accomplishments can never be duplicated. It is too late, but never too late to inspire succeeding generations. The Prince, who passed away in Florida on 11 May 2004, invested over six decades of his exceptional life to hunting and its undisputed role in the conserving of wildlife and habitat around the world. This generously illustrated biography, ROYAL QUEST, boasts a great deal of full-colour photography and is one of only fifty copies of a five-hundred copy publication completely bound in blue goatskin and displaying fine gold lettering. It is housed in a handsome, custom-built clamshell case and is accompanied by an especially framed, engraved bronze medallion linking the United States of America to Prince Abdorreza. He especially commissioned the late and greatly esteemed Bill Quimby to write his book. It is not only signed by both men. But each also signed and dated special, personalised messages to Fiona Capstick when she acquired the book in 2004 for the Capstick Archives. What sets this fine publication apart is the sheer geographic sweep of the narrative. The reader is taken on hunting expeditions in all hemispheres and to many countries long since closed to hunting. From freezing, high-altitude haunts to the unfenced horizons of the African savannah, from Middle Eastern desert to the snow fastnesses of the polar bear, Prince Abdorreza accompanies the reader on a journey like no other. The author of significant conservation legislation, the developer of wildlife museums and the force behind the preservation of vast tracts of land in his native Iran before the 1979 catastrophe, Prince Abdorreza's biography mirrors the power of the ethical hunter in the enduring conservation of game and habitat. It also mirrors what happens when political turmoil engulfs a country or region, dooming wildlife, and its habitat to ever steeper decline and eventual extinction. Chad and Afghanistan are examples. Memory is a weapon and a warning. ROYAL QUEST is a valuable inspiration for today's hunter/conservationists to strive always to uphold all that enhances the world patrimony of wildlife and its habitat.

CHOCTAW LODGE: 3-Day Choctaw McNab for One Hunter/One NH in OK - Includes Trophies & More
The "McNab" originated in Scotland many years ago where the goal was to take a red stag, a brace of grouse and catch a salmon all in the same day. The goal of the Choctaw McNab is to shoot an American bison, an Eastern wild turkey and to catch a large-mouth bass all within the course of one day - truly an admirable accomplishment. Should it not be accomplished in the course of a day, extra time is allowed. Should the successful bidder take all three in 1 day, there will be extra days to fish or simply to relax - or, if they wish at an additional charge, pursue other species found on the property at current pricelist. The Choctaw Hunting Lodge, owned by the Choctaw Nation in Southeastern Oklahoma, encompasses over 22,000-acres of prime mountainous wildlife habitat. The property has five large conservation lakes and many smaller ponds which are home to largemouth bass, crappie and other game fish. American bison roam and are hunted inside their large estate pastures, as well as Eastern turkeys. The Choctaw MacNab is a 3-day/2-night package, starting at noon and ending at noon and includes 1x guided American bison hunt, 1x guided Eastern turkey hunt and guided fishing. Also included is a Spandau S2 Realtree APX 28" turkey shotgun and Larry Weishuhn's personal R95 .45-70 Government rifle topped with a Trijicon scope, which can be used to take the bison or the winner can bring an appropriate rifle of their choice. This hunt is available during 2027 Oklahoma spring turkey season. This package includes field prep of bison and turkey, transportation of bison to meat processor, guides, transportation on the property, delicious meals, extremely comfortable lodging (individual bedroom with ensuite bath), appropriate snacks and adult beverages after the hunt. Plus, the bison hunt, fishing and possibly the turkey hunt will be filmed for the weekly "A Sportsman's Life" television series sponsored by DSC. Larry Weishuhn, DSC Ambassador/Mr. Whitetail, will likely be in camp with the buyer, possibly filming, but also later writing articles and blogs about the hunt. Not included are required Oklahoma hunting and fishing licenses at $75+, travel to and from the Choctaw Hunting Lodge, meat processing, skinning/caping and shipping of meat to the buyer or the trophy to taxidermist and gratuities.

BLASER / ERORA RHINO: Exclusive Namibian Rhino Conservation Package w/ Custom Blaser R8 Rifle
A Defining Conservation Experience: Erora Rhino Conservation, Namibia At the very heart of this extraordinary opportunity lies something far more powerful than a hunt or a firearm - it is the chance to make a direct, measurable impact on the future of one of Africa's most iconic species, the white rhino. This experience places you at the center of the Erora Rhino Conservation's mission, where science-based wildlife management, anti-poaching efforts and habitat security are actively shaping the increased populations of rhinos in Namibia. This is not passive conservation - it is hands-on, immersive, and deeply meaningful. The winning bidder and their guest will enjoy an exclusive, full-access journey into the inner workings of the conservancy. You'll meet the dedicated teams protecting these animals daily, gain firsthand insight into critical anti-poaching strategies and witness exactly how conservation funding is translated into action on the ground.

As part of this greater conservation mission, one hunter and one observer will embark on a 6-night luxury safari at Blaser Safaris, Sney Rivier Lodge. At the core of this experience is the ethical pursuit of an old, post-reproductive rhino bull - carefully and scientifically selected for removal. This management practice is essential to maintaining genetic diversity, reducing territorial conflict and ensuring the overall health of the population. This is conservation through action - where every step taken in the field supports a broader ecological balance. The experience also includes a premier plains game safari, with trophy fees for one each of the following: sable (best available), springbok, impala, mountain zebra and giraffe - offering both variety and excitement across Namibia's vast landscapes. Guests will enjoy luxury thatch-roof chalet accommodations, professional guides, rifle hire, all meals, field preparation of trophies and seamless transfers, including RT service from Windhoek Airport.

Refined details include a gold trigger and bolt head, engraved bolt ball, Selous-profile barrel with iron sights and a Safari Red recoil pad. It is outfitted with a Blaser B1 1-7x28 iC illuminated scope and presented in a premium Negrini hard case. While extraordinary, in its own right, this rifle serves a greater purpose: the added support of Erora's anti-poaching initiatives and habitat protection - turning craftsmanship into conservation impact. ________________________________________ Leave a Legacy That Matters - Make your mark! This is more than an experience - it is a rare opportunity to stand at the intersection of tradition, conservation, and purpose. In a world where rhinos face daily threats, your involvement directly contributes to their survival. By participating, you are not only supporting Erora Rhino Conservation and DSC Foundation - but you are also becoming part of a lasting conservation legacy, helping ensure that rhinos continue to thrive for generations to come.
