500grains, technically, you are correct. What I meant by free is, if you already plan to go to Africa in 2006, and havn't decided on a outfitter yet, if you book with us, you get a free chance to be in the draw. You must have already made up your mind though, to spend some money on an African hunt. As you are still getting the hunt that you were already prepared to pay X amount of dollars for, your buffalo will be free (if you win, that is). I do consider the odds of winning outstanding, and it costs nothing extra to be part of the competition. I am spending most of my advertising budget on this hunt, so I am paying for the hunt with money that would normally go to other avenues. The winner pays NOTHING for his/ her buffalo hunt, so therefore the choice of the word FREE.
