Typically, how soon before the posted draw date for AZ Elk does AZ F&G post the draw results? How soon before the posted draw date can you check to see if charges have been posted to ones credit card. Thanks, Robert

PM me if you do not want your recommendations made public. Thanks, Mike

What unit(area)would a 58 year old(healthy)archer have the best opportunity for success in Montana for Bighorn rams? Of course the more friendlier terrain the better. Regards, Mike

Very sly post Toad. Discourage the heck out of the faint and get them to drop out thus improving your odds. Very, very, tricky. ;) Regards, Mike

Thanks Jim! Regards, Mike

Thanks Zeke. Sounds like it deserves further investigation. Regards, Mike

I have been fascinated with Bighorns every since I was a small boy in the fifties watching Walt Disney on Sunday evening when they would have programs about the West. I am finally approaching having enough points to draw sheep in Wyoming. I know Wyo sheep are dinks compared to Alberta or for...

How hard is it to find a 125" Moose in area 25. I am not looking for a monster, just something that would make Pope & Young. Are they all ping pong paddles? What is the country like in 25? Can you spot and stalk from roads? Can you drive to where creeks cross the roads and walk the creek...

Thanks for the info Bigfin. I know the odds are slim for drawing, but I still like to be somewhat informed as to what the areas are like. I, like many others, have been applying for Bighorns for many years in several states. Hopefully it will happen before too much time passes. You are right...

I probably am going to apply to either of these units for sheep as the terrain is not as difficult for my age (57). Which of these two would be the better choice for an archery opportunity at a ram? Are they both basically the same? Anyone hunted either? Is there any Montana res. that knows that...

I have been told that the draw results are available by telephone before they are available online. Is this right? If so, how much sooner are the phone results available (a few days, a week)?

How difficult is it to harvest a cow or bull if you are issued a license? Are there just a few that wander into the hunt zones? How high of a number do you need to get a bull license for a non-resident. I have applied for years but never had a good number. Thanks, Mike

Thanks for the response and info fellas. I bought a hypervent yesterday and I am looking forward to using it. I believe it will fit my needs perfectly. Regards, Mike

I currently own a harris bi-pod that I will take on our(son&I) Oryx hunt in Rhodes this Oct. I saw mention somewhere in a post of the need to take standing shots on occasion. Is this correct and if so what kind of bi or tri- pod do you users recommend for a standing shot. Thanks, Mike

Does anyone have any experience with this one? You hear alot about the 2200, 4500 etc. How does it ride on a crawl/sneak?
