    Almost time

    Those numbers suck but when he says he could barely see a deer at 400 yards that seems to be a bigger issue to me

    E-Tag?

    You will not get a paper tag. If you got a paper tag and an e tag they would essentially send you two tags. the app works without cell coverage. You just have to be logged in before you go out of service. When you come back into service it will upload the information to game and fish.

    What is Colorado Mule deer like?

    Big ball of yarn there. 2nd season can be warm or it can be 4 feet of snow. If you have been on any hunt in AZ and think there is a lot of other hunters you’ll be blown away by the number of hunters in colorados second and third season. They have their deer and elk hunts at the same time. And bull elk is over the counter. I’ve hunted 5 different states and they are all kind of the same. 70% will be road hunters. 10% will backpack in as far as they can. The other 20 will park and hunt from the road every day. most other states I’ve hunted after Oct 15 getting far into forest land without 4x4 and chains is difficult. The terrain is way different than AZ. As for your last question. It depends on the unit. All those options are available. Do some research on their website. They have a great map that shows winter range summer range landowner ship etc.

    Opportunity VS Trophy Hunts

    3 points isn’t a guarantee for an early cow tag. A lot of units take 5 points. Points does not equal what type of hunt it is

    Non-Resident tags…

    It’s no different than idahos tags going on sale December 1.

    antlerless vs Cow

    It’s antlerless. If for some reason a bull would shed his antlers during a hunt and you shot him it would be legal because he didn’t have antlers. The tag is not for a specific sex, it’s for antlers or no shedable antlers.

    Non-Resident cap on OTC archery deer tags

    If it went to a draw the same number of permits would be issued for nr. Some units will be hunted harder than others but that’s what the quota is for. Remember the quota doesn’t reset in January. It resets in august. So a few units are closed right now that won’t affect your hunt in august. I don’t see how it’s going to take away opportunity away from residents. If your fav unit went to a draw for nonresident they would take those deer away from the resident quota. This way residents have the opportunity to fill the quota as fast as a nonresident would. Which is the same opportunity.

    Hypothetical draw question

    It is very clear. A person can not have two draw tags. (Except javelina cause they changed the rule for that). What is printed in the regs, like the screen shot above, is just simplified. You have to read the actual law which is a game and fish rule in this instance.

    forest service and 30 foot rule

    Sorry but the 30/300 foot rule is a good rule. Just drive the 300 road by forest lakes and you’ll see they push the campsites farther from the road every year causing more damage every year.

    AZGFD offering 12 Limited tags.

    How do you figure. Most states give non residents more than 10% Colorado is a $100 license, az 160. Wyoming doesn’t even having hunting licenses.

    RIP 4A

    Just the fall of 2021 and 2022. So far.

    Draw results

    The year they had issues with the system they didn’t make their deadline so they stopped publishing the date so they wouldn’t go over again.

    Its Time To Change the Arizona Bonus Point System

    Yes 3c late hint. 15 points last year.

    Its Time To Change the Arizona Bonus Point System

    You didn’t address all the questions. There is only one hunt south of the ditch that isn’t a guarantee with 12 points. If you did everything right on your app then you had a cc issue. applying for that hunt with 12 points makes no sense because you could have hunted it 4 times in those 12 years. it’s a 54% draw odd with 2 points.

    Its Time To Change the Arizona Bonus Point System

    One is guaranteed a tag if they have more points than anyone for that hunt number, except sheep and Buffalo. If you had 20 points and the next guy had 19 you are guaranteed the tag as long as there are over 9 (I think) tags for that hunt. as for turkey. Doesn’t sound like you’re buying 2 points a year. 6 points for a tag is not that long when you can get 2 points a year. and please research how Colorado works. All of their premium hunts require over 25 points and if you don’t have over 20 right now you’ll never draw. NEVER. Az’s system at least gives you a chance every year.

    Duwane Adams ?

    Or a responsible guide. What ever you choose.

    Duwane Adams ?

    This is probably more accurate but using something that is actually illegal.

    Call him and ask him if you don’t believe what you read.

    OTC hunts for 2023

    The regs have the threshold for the august December and January hunts. I think they will stay with the season if I understand you correct

    How AZGFD determines harvest data

    You want to blame GF but I blame hunters. We need to give them good data. Yes mandatory is the way to go but for the last 50 years all hunters should have been sending in their surveys. You just want an easy out by blaming gf.
  24. Northern Pintail

    Duwane Adams ?

    Well you have how the law works backwards. You wouldn’t have had to prove you didn’t put it there. The state would have had to prove you put it there. Just like they did with the bait duwane put out. They were able to prove it. When someone knows the state can prove it they don’t fight it. He got caught and all you thinking he is the greatest have been fooled.

    Duwane Adams ?

    Is his legal name duwane? Could be another reason you couldn’t find him. I don’t know.
