Did anyone in AZ pull a tag?

For the 16th year in a row I didn't. Guess I'm destined to just sneak up nice and slow on that tag. :cool:

Not for me. Don't have near the points you do. Hope to pull 1 tag in my life.

I put in for antelope and elk last month. I've got 17 points for antelope and 3 for elk be nice to pull an antelope tag before I die.

I've got 23 points for sheep so not hopeful at all for them.

Every year I put in for the strip for deer first choice then a unit near me. So far no strip tag.

With MT Non resident prices so out of control- I'm contemplating starting to bite the bullet and start the AZ point accumulation. AZ bones non residents with the best of them- but when you figure a 80% refund in MT to accumulate a point- it doesn't seem so bad.

AZ does an excellent job of managing each species/ unit(s) for a quality hunt. Much better than up here. I missed out this year already- maybe the wife will allow me next year.

2400 - Have you ever tried along the border for those mutant Sonoran mule deer? Or along the NM border (unit 27 or 1) for a mule? They're few and far between- but when you find them they're usually impressive.

Man I hope you draw soon, long time to wait!
A friend of my buddy couldn't wait and bought the gov tag 2 or 3 years ago. Ended up shooting one of the best looking giant goats i've ever seen.
Do you put in for NM? At least you have a chance each year there!

Awesome goat. What a gov tag run? I want one.

Start saving because your prolly going to need to fork over 20,000-40,000 for one of those! Its a365 day hunt though so you can be picky! :cool:

I haven't put in NM yet. Maybe next year I'll do that.

Your buddy got a beautiful antelope, do you know what unit he was hunting?

For that price they can keep the tag. But if I had that kind of cash laying around I would do it.
