I have heard rumors that Arizona will do away with preferance points and institute huge tag fees instead.
I've been gone awhile, is it true?

HH,
FYI, AZ does not have preference points. We have Bonus Points for unsuccesful draws, completion of the AZ Hunter Ed Course, and for purchase. Rather than doing away with BP's, it looks like additional BP's are going to become available for "application loyalty" and donating service to AZ wildlife conservation projects.
Good luck in the fall draws.

we're just gonna do away with uso and nonresident hunters. especially the ones from california. gonna start negative points for nonrez's. the more they apply for permits, the less their chances.

oooooooo, i guess you told me. it was a joke dumbass. and all the "bonus" points in the world don't mean a damn thing. it's still the luck o' the draw. unless we go to a preference point system "bonus" points don't mean much. i've been applying for sheep for over 30 years. never been drawn. but every year someone with no points will get a permit. it's just luck once the computer starts drawing. getting "close" on points doesn't mean a thing. good luck, you're gonna need it.
HEY JETHRO LOOKS LIKE THE JOKES ON YOU. AS A NON RESIDENT I DREW A SHEEP TAG IN 1997, THE BONUS POINT SYSTEM HELPS ALOT. I THINK (HOPE) THE DEER & ELK HAPPEN AS FAST. 30 YEARS IS ALONG TIME, GOOD LUCK... YOUR GONNA NEED IT. ARE YOU SURE YOUR FILLING OUT YOUR APPS. CORRECTLY... HAVE A PROFESSIONAL DO THOSE APPS. FOR YOU...30 YEARS..WOW. HAVE A NICE DAY, YD.

like i said, bonus points dont mean much. have fun on your guided hunts. i don't even use a guide in alaska. jethro. ow that hurt. i'll get a sheep permit in Az. one o' these days. and i'll shoot a big one too. and won't need somebody to hold my hand while i do it. at least i know you won't be able to compete for my tag anymore. later, dumbass.
what do you mean bonus points dont work. I have nine for antelope and my friends girlfriend drew a unit 9 tag (out of 15) the first time she ever put in. The same friend has had 3 archery bull tags in unit 10 in the past 5 years. I have never had one, and have too many bonus points to count. It looks like they work just fine to me!!!!!
