200"mulie Report post Posted March 27, 2012 First year in a long time I won't be applying to NM for anything. They don't want us out-of-state DIY hunters, so I won't buy a license to apply. Funny thing is, the outfitters will still make their money but the state will lose out on applicants. It will be interesting to see how long the state will lose money so that the outfitters can take advantage of this law before they wake up. No worries, we have plenty of game right here. Funny been looking to hunt out of state for year or two...been trying to save money...then they cut the percent of tags....now i'm looking at utah and colorado.....i'm studying and trying to understand there regs though. Head to idaho! cheap over the counter tags and a great elk population Starting new thread to stop this one from getting hijacked XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buffhunter Report post Posted March 27, 2012 IDK why but i have this strange feeling they are waiting to hit the credit cards right before or the same time they post the results........... dont know why but i just have that feeling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
out2hunt Report post Posted March 27, 2012 Seems to be true otherwise why would they warn us that if payment was not good you would lose your tag regardless of what has been posted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
200"mulie Report post Posted March 27, 2012 IDK why but i have this strange feeling they are waiting to hit the credit cards right before or the same time they post the results........... dont know why but i just have that feeling You know i was thinking the same.....cause with the spring draw people were getting hits a week or two before the actual results came out. So i wonder if there are doing the draw now but not charging cards till results are up online. Cause they learned there lesson. "Be advised that if your card is invalid at the time the random drawing is run, it will result in rejection of your application (regardless of posted results)." was in the email. So if your info is not valid or unsufficent funds....you will be rejected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
willhunt4coues Report post Posted March 27, 2012 Okay lets say party "A" put in for 5B north with CC and results were posted he got drawn BUT later his cc was rejected (insuff funds). Now applicant "B" put in for 5B north as well and he is the next in line and his draw results say Not Drawn but being A got rejected they then give it to B. Now B thinks he did not get drawn but low and behold his tag shows up sometime in April and he is happy dude. I don't know how they are going to do it but it seems they are trying something new this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So you really don't need to worry, if your drawn G&F will let you know...................Ya I know it's hard to wait. Why else would I be reading this 6th page of this post?

I don't know how they are going to do it but it seems they are trying something new this year. Their results page will show successfully drawn but due to a lack of sufficient funds, they were denied a tag. This will be handled before they release results. It will all be taken into consideration and run smoothly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know how they are going to do it but it seems they are trying something new this year. The last year they had the online apps for elk I knew someone that got a call from the G&F after the results were posted (her results were not drawn). They were asked if they still wanted a cow tag for 6a as they were next in line and someones CC did not fund for some reason or another and they ended up with a cow tag. So just because you don't get drawn at first there's always hope for a miracle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZMThunter Report post Posted March 27, 2012 114 users currently reading that credit cards have not been hit yet. I love the Arizona draw system. How many times as an adult are you genuinely surprised? A kids Christmas morning all over again. Awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tines Report post Posted March 27, 2012 This time of year is crazy, I agree. Almost ridiculous that we get so worked up. But we do and hopefully it won't change for my kids. But two questions to propose: How does the G and F benefit from posting results BEFORE or DURING CC transactions? Seems counter-intuitive. And second, would there be any LESS applicants year after year if our CCs were hit a week or so before the draw and we knew the "results" prior to the official result?
