My dum bass screwed the application up so AZGFD kindly let me send in an amended paper application with a check. I'll have to wait a week and a half. WDFW would do that, too, right?

Holy Crap! We Drew Early Archery Elk. We got hit this Morning. Time to step away form the Donuts and onto the StairMaster. Only 5.5 Months.

Nice! Where did you apply?
Nothing for me yet. But only applied for speed goats, will probably cash in my elk points next year or the year after.

Some rain has come through my areas of interst but Idk your hunt unit. Not sure whether rain or snow pack is more important but my guess is spring rain.

O my wife drew 6a Archery
Looks like we will be in Az in September :brew:
Post by: jae on April 09, 2015, 02:47:56 PM
Just curious how many pts did it take. For 8?10 points unless they count this year.
John
Post by: WAcoueshunter on April 09, 2015, 02:51:34 PM
That sounds about right. Not positive, but I would imagine that there are not any NR tags that make it through the 20% bonus pass for the Unit 8 archery tag, meaning you need to be in the max pool to have any shot at drawing.
I was considering Unit 8 several years ago and thought at the time it would take about 8 points to draw as NR. So with some points creep, 11 makes sense at this point.

In the last few years. Scoring upwards in the 420 430s
Good luck on a great tag. Should be fun hunt.
Post by: elkslare on April 09, 2015, 03:48:04 PM
Results are out now both online and by phone. My dad drew 5bs early archery bull. Guess i will be back in az in september to guide him. I guided in this unit last year and put my client on some BIG bulls that he opted not to take a shot at. Heres to hoping i can do the same this year for my pops.
Congrats on the elk draw in 5bs. We had 5bn couple years back and seen some good bulls. Left with one bull and we ate the other tag. Are you in AZ or here in WA Good luck on your hunt
Post by: jae on April 09, 2015, 05:53:20 PM
Congrats On the unit 8 tags. there has been some huge bulls come out of that unit.Thank You! We are going to take full advantage of our first Arizona Elk tags. The anticipation is extremely high right now. 5 months and 2 days to go. Taking three weeks off for the hunt. Started Eating right, lots of cardio, and dropping some #'s. It is a lot harder to get in shape than I remember it being.
In the last few years. Scoring upwards in the 420 430s
Good luck on a great tag. Should be fun hunt.
Thank You again,

Nice, are you closing in on the elk tag you want? I think I'm still a couple years out on my tag. Once I draw, I'm only going to apply for easy to draw hunts from here on out. Not going to wait until I'm 65 to draw another tag.
