Phil Carr Report post Posted January 17 I have a hunting partner that has 26 points for elk. Can someone tell me how many people have 26 points or more for elk? Also how many people dropped off the list last year? We are just curious when he might be able to draw an early rifle bull tag. He would like to hunt unit one but is open to other suggestions. I realize this information is out there but I am just finding it difficult to find. I would be most appreciative of any help a member can provide. Thanks Phil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesFanatic Report post Posted January 17 120 have 26. He's got 180 people ahead of him. If he's a resident that changes things though. 16 residents with 26 and 27 residents higher than that. https://azgfd-portal-wordpress-pantheon.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/17132601/2024-Fall-Individual-Bonus-Point-Report.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
223VARMINTER Report post Posted January 17 I hope he has been applying every year because it's possible he could draw that tag any year in the random draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Carr Report post Posted January 17 He is a AZ resident but has bought points a few years due to health and scheduling. Thanks for the info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He would very likely draw if he applied. The 27 muzzleloader hunt would be a sure thing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted January 17 Looking at things, he could draw most the early rifle hunts. Lots of options out there. 10, 3C, 22, even 23N is right there. You guys should go have an awesome hunt. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoss50 Report post Posted January 18 26 points if a resident should draw almost every elk tag in AZ. I believe only 1 hunt last year was a 26pt draw. All other hunts were less. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
