Very nice! Thanks for posting.

Just got through on website! Unit 9 late cow rife!

Calvary Community Church, Northwest campus at 59th and Bell. The same church as the one on I-17 between Thunderbird and Cactus, but closer to where we live. Love the teaching!

Fun gun and great piece of history! I love mine.

Way too many!

Nice pics! Thanks for sharing

Very Nice HornHunter! Congrats on a very successful shed hunting trip.

I don't know the number, but I used to work for the state. When I would call out, the number appeared as unknown or restricted.

Just got hit for $270! Had 3 bonus points (1 each for Hunter Ed, Species and Loyalty) putting in as a group of 2 for Unit 9 early rifle cow as first choice and 9 late rifle cow for the second choice. Flatlander calculated our odds at about 30% for the early and 100% chance of getting drawn on the late hunt. Looking forward to having some meat in the freezer this fall.

I concur, based on my current understanding of the draw process. It makes sense that all of the current hits are the 20% max bonus point round. Just not sure if it means they will hold off the next round until all are verified or if they can start it before then.

It looks like the waiting is over and we should all know one way or the other in the next week or so. We haven't drawn yet, but hoping to be like Harvard and Dayton today and beat the odds! Congrats to all those that have drawn and those that will draw.

Yes, $135 for the tag plus $13 for the application fee.

Nice looking animals! Welcome Dieringer Outfitters!

It looks like a piece of art! Beautiful looking rifle!

From what I can tell from reading various posts on this forum, it sounds like AZGFD had issues with the online system towards the end of the draw. Some people had their application submissions fail, but then when they went to resubmit, received an error for a duplicate application. Having worked in IT for a few years, it sounds like they have what we call orphaned records (applications missing names, or addresses or hunt choices or something). Basically, they have some messed up applications that are no fault of the applicant. So, it sounds like they are calling people because their system broke and messed up the applications.

I'll be whitetail hunting in Arkansas in November.

Judging by your username we must be related?? Either that...or you're looking to hunt me.

Will check with family member to see if they want to loan out their moose head. PM sent.

..and now it appears to be down again, but this time it's just not letting you select the big game species. This is usually what happens when the close the update feature for good. Sure hope this means they're getting ready to start the draw! Have alerts set on my credit card, so won't have to keep checking it.

Wonderful! Congratulations to the parents and grandparents!

I was getting concerned since I haven't seen an e-mail either. So, I went online to the AZGFD online draw site, clicked on the update payment link and made sure my credit card info was in there and it was. So, hope the application is there too.

Can't wait for the results. Sure hope we start getting CC hits early next week.

Start hitting cards the 24th, final results 4/3.

Thanks for the story and pic. Congratulations to both you and Jimmy on a great hunt and beautiful bull!
