realistic about 1500-2000. For tax reporting purposes, easily $15k


I don't think he'd want to over estimate the value for what he's doing. From my understanding of the OP, he was the winning bidder on a hunt that was donated to be auctioned for a school fundraiser. For tax purposes, he can deduct the amount he overpaid above the fair market value...ie, if the winning bid was $8000 and the fair market value of the hunt is really only $3000, he can deduct $5000 as charitable donation.

Don't see any mention of the OP described scenario or similar on that link... Still call total BS on a 30k fine/fee for running over a doe.

correct. I would be really tempted to write off almost the whole entire thing. The check is prob made out to the school. I doubt that here is anything on the backside to track this thing back.

215" WT for $9500 is a bargain in SoTx.
