Just wondering why people even put a third choice? Not many hunts have tags after first round.

elk bp,will have 15 points next year. Gonna try to draw 9 archery bull. I'll keep going till I get that tag, then worry about other units in the future.
Antelope bp, will have 20 points next year. Might apply for 5B and 10 rifle next year.

Son

elk bp, will have 10 next year. Will probably apply him for an archery bull tag in a unit he has a chance to draw, like the 5s or 6s.
Antelope bp, will have 17 next year. Gonna keep gettting him points till he can draw one of the top couple units in the state for a rifle tag.

He's in pretty good shape, points-wise, for a kid of 24 years old. he also has 16 sheep points and 7 deer points. He's already drawn AZ elk and deer tags as a teenager, and killed a 334" bull in 5bs and 188 "buck in 12ae.

my dad drew 7w late rifle bull w/ his 3rd choice 2 years ago, so I always fill in the choices just incase!

 

[DonMartin]

Antlerless and anterless for me. No more bull tags for this sportsman.

Forget third, fourth, and fifth choices unless you want a antlerless archery permit...

Otherwise you are just wasting ink!

Don,
What needs to be done to improve our draw system here in AZ?

BP's for me

 

[DonMartin]

For residents, I think as one of my guides puts it, "It is what it is!" Sure there are 20% of the tags going to the those in the top tier--but those folks have paid their dues and ought to see some kind of advantage. After all we residents, no matter how many BP we have, get a crack at the remaining 80% of the tags.

Let's face it, there is just not enough game in Arizona to go around!

For junior's, I'd like to see them get a "one and done" tag for each species. Seems like a lot of them get multiple tags as juniors, while others seem to fall int he cracks and never get a junior tag. That being said, IF there were juniors tags left over, then I'd say let those who had them prior apply for them.

For NR I'd like to see it changed to where a tag or two from the 10% NR pool would be open for ALL NR's, no matter how many bonus points they have.

Right now, if a NR isn't in the max bonus point pool, they have 0 chance of ever drawing a unit 13B deer tag.

If we are going to "ding" them for that NR license fee every year, they at least deserve a "chance" at a premium tag out of their 10% "quota" which really isn't a quota as we all know it.

Other than that, if someone has ideas on a change, I'd like to hear it. PM me with any details.

That would be a great start Don. I'd love to see something like that happen. I'd rather have a lousy chance at drawing a tag instead of the current situation of ZERO chance. At least in Nevada I can apply for a desert bighorn sheep with ZERO points and still have a chance. Not to mention the dedicated tags going to NR is nice to know. Right now this "up to 10%" crap really sucks.

Don are you saying something like the Nevada draw?

 

[vmcfadden]

For the NR its preference points now instead of bonus points. I wish they didin't have the the 20% pass for NR. Atleast I have a chance to draw every year. Now I know it will be 15 years until I draw. NRs over 60 need not apply anymore. They removed alot of seniors from the application poll.

Thank You!
