Coues79 Report post Posted April 10, 2007 The proposed guidelines and recommendations for the fall draw are posted online at the AZGFD website. Here is the link, http://www.azgfd.gov/h_f/hunt_guidelines.shtml I see that they are trying to do away with the October Mule deer hunts in 29 and 31 this year. I'm not so sure if I like that or not. They bumped up the November hunt by 100 permits to allocate for the October hunt. This puts it at 300 permits for that specific hunt (unit 31 Mule Deer). I think there are pro's and con's to it. Pro: October coues hunt all by itself. November Coues hunt mostly by itself. NEG: I think that with only one Mule deer hunt available, it will make the draw odds for the Coues hunts go down in those particular units. It may get harder to draw a tag for October or November (Coues). Oh wait, they did bump up the number of tags for the October Coues hunt by 100 permits. WTH? Deer population didn't seem to be flourishing by any means last year. I can't see why they are trying to bump up the number of coues permits in 31. What do you think Gila Valley Hunters? What's your thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
