AZ is starting to hit cards for the draw.

[CMF]

Looks like we're going to AZ for the second year in a row. My 16yo drew a 3A/C late rifle elk!

 

[Frequently Banned Troll]

I drew the early rifle Unit 23N.

Nice! We should trade notes on it. I’m going to be there from Sept 7 to the end of archery season if needed. I’m currently at knowledge level zero.

You are within a hour of Hank and the pie shop. The peanut butter pie is really worth the stop.

I have no idea what you’re talking about.

I had 27 and 23 mixed up on my mental map. I thought you would be bordering NM where @hank4elk lives. He is always going on about Pie Town, which is a worthy stop when in that area. Unfortunately, 23 is a good 2 hours away and the wrong direction from MT.

Mine hasn't gotten hit yet for that early rifle season - must be a delay in their system!

 

[David Gough]

Absolutely. And if any of you drew a late rifle elk tag, I’d suggest turning it in. All those big ol’ bulls will be completely busted up by the time your season rolls around.

Gohunt said so on their podcast, must me true.

My wife hit up Pie Town while I was elk hunting. Said the pie was well worth the hour drive from Magdalena

If you miss an app, it's a 2 point loss; species bonus point and species loyalty point.

Unfortunately this happened to me this year with pronghorn. I was applying for three people and after I applied myself for elk I totally forgot pronghorn. Didn't realize it until few days ago.
I had 9 plus loyalty point. I should be sitting at 11 points now but still at 9. It's my fault but still so aggravating that there is zero tolerance and no grace period to at least be able to purchase points.

I have 9 also, I only apply for that species because it's a $15 lotto ticket. We'll be long dead before our number hits the bonus pass.
Spend the $300 for the ethical hunter point, that one makes a difference for Elk and Deer.
