Dena posted this on the Campfire page; I thought I'd transfer it over here too. I will also add the auction items as I am made aware of them.

Here is another one that should get quite a bit of attention:

One hunter - 3 days/2 nights at Haecker Safari Ranch in Leakey, Texas. Hunt includes:
Daily fees
Trophy fee for one exotic (includes aoudad, fallow, axis, sika, blackbuck or ram)
Up to 2 feral hogs
Unlimited predators
Lodging
Meals
Additional days, animals, or hunters can be added at normal rates (see web site www.rhinooutdoors.com for rates)
Added bonus:
This hunt will be filmed by Matt Moore of Closing The Distance (provided it is not booked during whitetail season). There is a possibility (no guarantee) that the filmed hunt will air on an episode of Closing The Distance, which airs on the Pursuit Channel. Matt will make the decision of whether to include the footage on his show based on his criteria for making a good show (ie. shot placement on any animal(s) taken [misses are ok though, LOL], overall quality of the footage, etc.)

Also need to add to the above post that this is a free range hunt on about a section of land. There are some quality animals taken on the free range part of the ranch on a regular basis. The hunter can "upgrade" the hunt to hunt behind the high fence for an additional fee of $1,000 if so desired.
I will be along for the ride for this one as camp staff (not hunting), but mainly there to promote the LSBA. I will more than likely be playing/singing around the campfire at night.
I have hunted this ranch once on a three day aoudad hunt and saw quite a few aoudad (two really good rams that I just couldn't close the deal on) and a couple nice axis bucks, along with a good number of pigs. I love hunting that part of the country because you never know what is going to show up.
