If a Hunter Wins the Powerball Jackpot…

AJ Gall

Boy, oh, boy, as I sit here typing I can only dream of what I would do if the six numbers on my lottery ticket match the six drawn this Saturday night.  Despite the winning odds being 1 in nearly 300 million, daydreaming about winning is a giddy experience.  Like most hunters, I’m a pretty simple man and it doesn’t take a lot to make me happy, but like the Chris Janson’s lyrics say:

“I hear the Powerball Lotto is a-sittin’ on a hundred mill

Well that would buy me a brand new rod and reel

And it could buy me a boat, it could buy me a truck to pull it

It could buy me a Yeti 110 iced down with some silver bullets

Money can’t buy everything

Well, maybe so,

But it could buy me a…”


BOAT (Green = Reasonable)

One for fishing, one for duck hunting, one for pontooning, one for skiing, one for cruising.

CAMO’D OUT YACHT (Orange = Ridiculous)

And yes, by camo’d out we mean everything from the exterior to the interior.

A TON OF HUNTING LAND

This would be the first thing I would buy as a hunter!

AN ISLAND FILLED WITH DEER

I don’t know, it sounds pretty cool.

A GIANT HUNTING LODGE

It must be on a lake, have a heated garage, and a walk in freezer at minimum.  The rest can be bought…

A POOL FILLED WITH BUSCH LIGHT

A pool filled with beer??? Heavenly…

BIG BOY TOYS

We’re talking tractors, bulldozers, ATV’s, UTV’s, Jet Ski’s, motorcycles, you name it… oh and you better have enough for your buddies.

BIGGER BOY TOYS

Go big or go home! Get yourself a helicopter or a jet for scouting for deer and getting to your hunting lodge faster!

ALL THE EXPENSIVE HUNTING GEAR I CAN’T AFFORD NOW

Ya, that’s like 99% of gear on the market today.  Time to say good-bye to the hand-me-downs.

BUY A BASS PRO SHOPS STORE

Gear problem solved.

10 OF EVERYTHING FROM LEGENDARY WHITETAILS

Dress yourself and your friends!

BUY LEGENDARY WHITETAILS

Heck, buy the whole dang company (employees sold separately)

DONATE TO CONSERVATION

Give however much you’d like!

BUY LEASED LAND AND TURN IT PUBLIC

You’d be loved by hunters everywhere!

ADVENTURE HUNTS

Go on all the hunts you’ve ever dreamt about.  Alaska, here we come!

GUNS, GUNS, AND MORE GUNS

Because it’s America…

AN AMMO FACTORY

Because you’ll want all you can get.


Now we could go on and on with this list, but we want to hear from you.  As a hunter, what would you buy if you win the $1.5 Billion Jackpot?

You’ll know if I won because you’ll never read another article from me again;)
