Im from Az also and along with my brother i have put in for elk for the past 3 years he has for the past 7 and we havent got drawn. My brother puts in every year and gets drawn, he puts his 1st choice cow but he always gets drawn. I have 3 B pints and my oldest brother now has 7. My middle brother jason has only had his hunter ed point and gets drawn, he goes though . What i was getting to though is about the use of a tag, my friend works with a guy that got drawn for 6A N. bull archery and didnt go. When my brothers and I went for his cow hunt we called in so many bulls, I told my friend that i would go with the guy to help him out and call for him and stuff for free obviously cause im not a guide but man how could you waste an elk tag that puts meat on the table and a story to talk about for years. I still to this day think that the elk hunt that we went on with my brother was the most awesome thing I have done so far, with buglking and getting the elk right there and taking pictures and that, what a rush to have a huge bull come within 10 yards and bugle at you WOW!! it is excititng. Hopefully next year we all 3 get drawn im not wasting B points on a freakin cow though.-Justin
