What makes you think there is anything wrong with the draw system. For the 500 millionth time the draw and portals are two totally separate things. The portals right now are what is messed up and again for the 500 millionth time YOU DONT NEED A PORTAL ACCOUNT TO PUT IN FOR THE DRAW, so the draw for all you know will run exactly like it has run flawlessly for years. Once again there has been no delay until they miss the April 2nd deadline to mail out tags. (Is that a nice enough way of putting it?)

No where in the regulations has the AZGFD said the draw will take place the morning after the CC update, the only thing they’ve ever printed is when the tags will be mailed out so again no delay yet.

Drawing ACCEPTANCE DATES1 DEADLINE DATES2 HUNT Applications accepted on or after: ONLINE APPLICATIONS: Deadline 11:59 p.m. (Arizona time): Hunt permit-tags mailed out by: Pronghorn (See note 1) Feb. 9, 2021 April 2, 2021 Elk (See note 1) Feb. 9, 2021 April 2, 2021 Unless the tags aren't mailed out by April 2, 2021 where's the delay.

I would say it is a very low percentage of people that put in for the draw for the sole purpose of drawing a tag to save wildlife. They have to buy a license in order to apply and that money alone would help support the very thing they don't stand for.

A far cry from the 210,000 being reported.

GAME AND FISH NEWS Feb. 26, 2021 2021 elk, pronghorn hunt draw in progress PHOENIX — The Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD) reminds hunters that the processing of draw applications for 2021 elk and pronghorn hunt permit-tags is underway. The deadline to submit applications was Feb. 9. AZGFD continues to validate a record 170,000 applications, an increase of almost 18,000 over last year. As a reminder, a customer’s receipt is verification that their application was received by the department. There is no need to contact the department if a customer cannot view data (such as submitted applications, bonus points, license purchases) in their personal portal account at this time. AZGFD expects to resolve this inconvenience once the draw has been completed and hunt permit-tags are issued. In the meantime, the department appreciates the continued support and patience of its valued customers. There also is no need to contact the department about draw results. AZGFD will post an announcement on its website and social media channels when draw results are available. All hunt permit-tags will be mailed by April 2. Did you know? The Arizona Game and Fish Department conserves and protects Arizona’s 800+ wildlife species but receives NO Arizona general fund tax dollars.

Now it's almost 250,000 applicants 😂

AZGFD personnel push the agenda that is set by the commission.

210,000 applications, that would be about an 80,000 uptick in elk and antelope apps from last year with those odds you don't have to worry about getting drawn anyways.

Wildlife belongs to the people doesn't mean you can go take a deer or elk whenever you feel like it there are rules and regulations for a reason. Same with our national forests. I believe the purpose of this post is the main reason gates are locked during certain seasons.

Of course the paper failed to mention that the horses are nothing short of escapes from the rez due to the wildfires that have torched fences.

Or stay out of the forest during winter months when snow and mud is bad

Doesn't really look like NR are the problem.

“Handgun” is defined under Federal law to mean, in part, a firearm which has a short stock and is designed to be held and fired by the use of a single hand… Gun Control Act of 1968, 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(29). Under an implementing regulation of the National Firearms Act (NFA), 27 C.F.R. § 479.11,

Nice pigs but what do you expect when you post a picture with a shoulder mounted "pistol" during a handgun hunt.

I'm telling you that, not myself troll.

If you need a brace strapped around your forearm to help brace the pistol maybe you shouldn't be using a pistol. Maybe you should just stick to rifles with a bi-pod.

Just keep pushing that grey line. First there were trail cameras and then someone thought there needed to be live feed trail cameras and now there will be no trail cameras 😂.

If it's not INTENDED to be fired from the shoulder than why even have the butt stock on it.

“Handgun” means a firearm designed and intended to be held, gripped, and fired by one or more hands, not intended to be fired from the shoulder, and that uses the energy from an explosive in a fixed cartridge to fire a single projectile through a barrel for each single pull of the trigger. “ You mean to tell me that big browns and his wife fired that using one hand or both hands and didn't use the stock butt. Yeah right.

I have done 8 applications and none of them took more than a couple minutes apiece.

😂, he was in high school when he broke the record.

If you visit some of the state hatcheries they have replicas of a lot of the state records. The current Brown trout record is from Reservation Lake and the holder is the manager of Tonto Creek Hatchery.

According to the 2020 data the USFWS put out for AZ NR contributed $5,054,435 of the total $17,485,504. My math skills aren't the greatest but that's about 29% they contribute.
