jamaro Report post Posted February 2, 2006 Hey everybody... Well it looks like I am going to get another point for the Elk Draw... When do the news procs come out? Does anybody have any clue what new changes are going to happen for NR? Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azpackhorse Report post Posted February 2, 2006 G & F have a meeting on the 9th in Tucson for public input (ya right) and one last meeting on the 11th in Pheonix then they will make thier recomendations for the 2006 changes. I do not believe there is a hard date for regs to come out, as usual there is a controversy filled cluster in the G & F ranks. So to answer your question.........who knows, I think that the fees will go up somewhere from 30 to 40% but that is a W.A.G. I hope to see some fellow CWT at the Tucson meeting in one week!

bowsniper Report post Posted February 2, 2006 I heard at a G&F Meeting that starting in 07, the drawings for antelope and elk will be much earlier than the rest of the Fall Drawings. This will allow people to more time to plan for the antelope and elk hunts. Sounds like a good idea, but I have to wonder how they are making more money off of it.

JohnFriddle Report post Posted February 2, 2006 I think the fee increases are for 2007 too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Rabbit Report post Posted February 2, 2006 Regarding the fee increases, then this would be a good year to purchase a lifetime hunting and fishing license, especially if you might move out of state and would otherwise need to purchase a pricey nonresident license to apply in AZ. http://www.azgfd.gov/pdfs/h_f/lifetime_license_app.pdf RR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azpackhorse Report post Posted February 2, 2006 The way I am understanding the fee increases is that they will increase over a period of time, I expect them to increase 30-40% for the 2006 hunts but like I said it is just a W.A.G. I would be surprised if the permit fees did not increase until 2007. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rembrant Report post Posted February 3, 2006 I think it's George Bush's fault. Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KGAINES Report post Posted February 3, 2006 Ok you went and did it Rembrant, you read the arizona republic, or watched any channel on tv except FOX, because we can blame Bush for everything, at least that is what they tell us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bowsniper <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That would be a great idea. I want start planning more hunts across different states and this would make things alot easier. jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
