Find Sasquatch and Win $1,000,000 and Other Great Gear From Bushnell, Field &
Stream
OVERLAND PARK, Kan., June 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Bushnell Outdoor Products and
Field & Stream magazine want you to find Sasquatch this year and they are
providing a good reason to search -- one million reasons to be exact -- with
the "$1,000,000 Sasquatch Photo Challenge" that runs from June 3 through
December 15, 2008.
"We're not saying we believe in Sasquatch," says Nate Matthews, online
editor for Field & Stream. "But if anyone's ever going to capture an image of
one, we're guessing it'll be a hunter with a trail camera and we'd like to
settle this once and for all."
Don't live in prime Sasquatch hunting territory? No problem! Field &
Stream and Bushnell are also giving away great Bushnell gear for the best
trail cam shots in the following categories: Deer photos, non-deer photos, and
funny photos. Three winners every month will receive a Bushnell Excursion
binocular, and three grand prize winners at the end of the year will receive a
Bushnell Trail Scout Pro with Game Call Technology trail camera.
"For all you jokers out there, we're giving away an additional Bushnell
Trail Scout Pro camera for your best attempt to cheat Bushnell out of their
$1,000,000 prize," says Matthews. "So go grab your gorilla suit and head to
the nearest woodlot. Just don't get mistaken for a bear."
Digital trail cameras have changed the way sportsman and wildlife
researchers track animals in the outdoors. The Bushnell line of Trail Scout
trail cameras provide 24-hour monitoring and the ability to record high
resolution color photos or videos during the day or black and while night
vision images without a flash. The cameras rely on a passive infrared sensor
that will detect activity out to 90 feet. Images are stored on compact SD
cards.
The sweepstakes is open to any eligible adult 18 years or older within the
United States who can provide conclusive photographic evidence that Sasquatch
(Bigfoot or Yeti) exists. The photo or video must be taken with a trail camera
and submitted to a panel of experts for verification. The photo/video must be
an original, in black & white or color, taken during the day or night. Photos
that have been retouched, altered or changed in any way will be disqualified.
For the "$1,000,000 Sasquatch Photo Challenge," Bushnell will have a panel
of experts review all submitted photos. The sweepstakes rules define Sasquatch
as any bi-pedal, non-human that cannot be classified under any existing
indigenous or non-indigenous species. Humans or statues dressed in Sasquatch
costumes do not qualify, as well.
The person submitting the winning photo will win $1,000,000 payable as an
annuity. The sweepstakes will also award monthly and one yearly prize.
The sweepstakes runs from June 3 through Dec. 15, 2008. For complete
sweepstakes information, rules and eligibility requirements, visit

web site by clicking on the "Win a $1,000,000" icon, or by mail. Mail in
entries must be postmarked by Dec. 15, 2008 and received by December 30, 2008.
