Those who apply and are approved for a PenFed Flag card by April 16, 2023, will automatically be entered into the company's once-in-a-lifetime trophy elk hunt sweepstakes, with a grand prize package valued at $11,000. The new sweepstakes give hunters and NRA members a chance to head to northwestern Colorado, where Worldwide Trophy Adventures will handle all the details on a five-day elk hunt that gives one lucky winner an opportunity to take their shot at tagging an incredible elk.

The winner of the all-inclusive spot-and-stalk elk hunt will have air travel, in-field transportation, meals, gratuities and accommodations, where they'll be guided one-on-one toward the elk of a lifetime. The winner will fly into Hayden, Colo., where they'll be personally met by folks on the ground and driven to camp. This area of Colorado contains one of the largest herds of elk in the United States, providing the hunter with the best opportunity of finding their quarry.

No purchase is necessary to enter the sweepstakes, so those who already have a PenFed Flag card or who aren't ready to apply can still take advantage of the opportunity. The PenFed trophy elk hunt sweepstakes is open to all legal residents of the 50 United States, Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico who are at least 18 years old, as well as those who are currently residing on an overseas U.S. military installation. Please see the official rules for the full details. The winner of the sweepstakes will be drawn on or about May 15, 2023.
