tag/reminder

There is not elk in Arizona.  Just like the blues

[Skyvalhunter]

Putting in again but starting over after drawing last year.

I'll apply, but I won't draw even with 14 points.  With the points creep, I'm guessing I might have 4-5 years before I catch up to the max pool and can draw the tag I want.

I got 7pts so I put in for the actual draw this year and not pts.  Muzz area 5

we are putting in again for a unit you can draw about every 4 or 5 years. not the best unit, but still lots if fun

That's my plan too going forward.  The way their draw is set up now, you basically get one chance to draw the best tags, then you need to apply for something else.  I cashed in my deer points this year and need to find something new to apply for.  I'll draw a primo elk tag in a few years, then will need to do the same for elk.

I used my points last year and had a great hunt. Used 12 points on a unit I could draw with 7. I hunted 16 archery days and 13 of 16 days I could have harvested a 280-330" bull and 2-4 bulls a day. I chased a bull around for 3 days that was harvested and score 403" then moved to another area and chased a 9x7 and a 6x6 and each would have scored 370-380". Never saw another hunter in this area either, it was almost deafing with all of the screaming bulls.
Took me 40 years to draw a tag in this state and YES I am going to start building points again in Arizona and I am 62 years old and no I am not doing points in this state as I doubt I could do it again at 102 years young.

[starbailey]

I'm in with 11 points.

I pulled out of the game.   Having some regrets now, though I was sick of "wasting" money.

[wa.hunter]

The good part is I will start in the draw this year with 2 loyalty points and a hunter safety point and 1 for the year. I got 4 points going into this years draw in 3 more years I will draw again. 3 years ago I drew a deer tag and went down shot a 200" buck and already got 5 points going into the draw this year will draw that tag again in a couple of years.

*Resident* pool with 7 points 

I see where you're coming from, Bone. I'm trying to figure out which western state screws the non residents the most and I think we may be in the running. Best wishes to all who apply.
