Flatlander Report post Posted June 5, 2017 I haven't seen this link posted anywhere else so thought I would throw it out there. Tomorrow night is a webinar to show the new guidelines for the regs for the next three years. This is the time to influence how the game species are managed as these guidelines set the boundaries by which tag numbers and hunt structures will be established for several years. If you have been complaining about too many tags or low bull:cow ratios this is the time to speak up.

McLane Road, Payson The draft proposed hunt guidelines provide the biological and social parameters used by wildlife biologists to formulate annual hunt recommendations (season structures, season lengths, season dates, permits allocated, etc.). These recommendations result in the annual hunts in which licensed hunters may participate. While hunting opportunity is important, wildlife is held in the public trust; therefore, using science-based principles to shape the guidelines process remains paramount to ensure healthy, sustainable and diverse wildlife populations in perpetuity. The draft proposed hunt guidelines were developed based on public input received earlier this year and can be viewed at https://www.azgfd.com/Hunting/Guidelines/. The department still is seeking feedback on how to best meet the demands of the hunting public, while finding ways to develop new opportunities that help pass along our hunting heritage to future generations. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cw4192 Report post Posted June 6, 2017 My two cents is remove all archery hunt's during December late Coues Deer hunts. Don't know why they did it this year but I see a lot of confrontations in the field this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
