Website says they're up, but all that shows are points from last fall. Phone lines are busy. Should be soon!
Actually, it still only mentions the previous draw is available, not the current elk/antelope draw.. At least on the draw results lookup page I am looking at.
They are up on the phone lines good luck getting through. Friend drew 5bn early bull
On the main AZGFD.com, it pops up with "Draw results available! check online or by phone for hunt draw results for elk and pronghorn antelope."
One of my employees drew AZ archery 9 or 1 depending if it was his first choice or second.
Just checked online, it still has not been updated, still shows last years points.
Same here, not updated yet. Only available via phone rt now?
Phone lines are up but the wait continues, lol if you can imagine 10,000 people speed dialing at once.
What's the hunt number for unit 9 archery bull
There were more tags dropping down to the 1-2 pass this year from my initial count. 64 last year and over 70 this year. There will be a few more happy hunters that drew without max points.
Dogman it's 3131 unit 9 bull, you heading for 9 in Sept?
The website says check for draw results and the next page says they are not available. LOL. Im at over 150 tries on the phone lines! As Will would say,"Dang it man"!
And now the phone lines are down....
WHY can't they just put it up on the internet BEFORE the stupid phone?!?!?
you pay to find out on the phone
just checked, they are up online
Its official. I got nothing, but will playing guide big-time as my dad was drawn for Bull and my son was drawn for cow in the same unit! Congrats to them. This will be some fun.
My friend and I put in for the same archery hunt on seperate tags. We both drew. Since it's an over the counter archery deer unit, we'll be deer and elk hunting in the same unit this year. Doesn't get much better than that. Heck yeah.
good luck you you guys. I just bought a point.
Unit 1 archery bull. Now the work begins!!!
Drew permit #0007 for unit 9 archery bull... Excited to say the least!!
Congrats steff. I did tons of internet scouting and hardly used any of it. LOL
You'll have fun
No tag for me. Maybe next year with 14 points.
7W sweet-meat-cow form me and a friend, still waiting on my non-res amigos to see if they got bull in the same unit or next door but they did get hit...
Hunt 3130 unit 8 Bob has tag 00001 and I have 00002
Cool Bigdan. I had tag #1 when I drew it. AWESOME to have plenty of points in hand.
looks like i'm going 03130 unit 8 permit 000014, now I have a lot of work to do, congrats to everyone who drew.
My Dad and I drew 6A tag 14 and 15. Lots of work for us too.
My buddy from TN drew 6a tag number 185 with 4 points
Bigdan, I can fill you in about where I had some action. Will see if I can find my maps.
Congratulations to all who drew. I'll be sitting this year out. If any NRs drew Unit 1, 23N, or 6B and you are not going with a guide, I am pretty familiar with those units and can help you get started if you need help.
Good Luck to all!
I picked the wrong season and drew Unit 9 buck antelope with 11 points. (Rifle)
WOW!!!
1st choice---tag # 00009
Good luck, Robb
I'll be sitting at home watching 11 points grow mold until next draw cycle. Congrats to all and don't forget to share your hunts w/ plenty of details and pictures.
nicely done BULLELK1, I see your still believen.....congrats!
5B-N Bull for me. Is it September yet?
Steff, I want to know all about your hunt , I have 11 points now and I wish the best of luck to everyone that drew.
I drew 19a archery antelope with the season Aug. 8 - 21 and if I put in for the strip ( I have 17 points ) and I draw that tag too, the season would start the day antelope ends.
If I wait until next year the odds go down for me drawing with new change in tag distribution.
What to do ?
Grandson 5BS Archery Bull
I enjoyed my AZ hunt so much last year that I tried to draw a cow tag in the same unit this year. I thought for sure with 2 pts., I would draw. It did not happen. Best part is that I now have three points and hopefully another AZ bull in the future.
Wow, I drew an Arizona elk tag- Woo Hoo!!!!! Back to Back years a non res bull tag...I can't believe it. 11M this year, not the greatest unit but hey, its a tag.....gotta go buy some lotto tix- grin
6A archery. When they hit the CC I was happy. But, with the posting, I'm jumping for joy!!!!!!!! What we live for, what we live for. Now, just need to stay alive until after the hunt, 9-26-14. Yea, baby! And, the Giants won their home opener and are in 1st place, sorry AZ. The frickin stars are lining up!
don't quote me on it glass eye...but I read somewhere (cant remember where I saw it) that if the changes are made to the tag distribution it wont be implemented until the 2016 draw. if that is true that would help your plan out. congrats on lope tag!
5BS... can't wait for this... Ed F
00004 unit 8 I saw the bull big dan killed there. I don't know him but I will take any leftover he is willing to give up. TJW
Congrats on the antelope tag Breck. If I'm around let me know when your headed over to scout and I will jump in with you.
I'll do that Kevin, thanks.
Congrats guys!! Hope you all have a great hunt.
5 mins after I found out I drew az. I did my Nevada app. Just did bonis points for deer. But I did put in for Ca Bighorn and Nelson Sheep. Only Iowa left to do.
Unit 1/2b/2c early archery bull. 13th year of applying since I drew 9 in 01. Permit #13. The stars are aligning.
Thank you Arizona!! Two incredible elk hunts after 21 years of applying as a nonresident. More than my share. You guys don't have any idea how grateful I am.
Congratulations to those who draw, and commiserations to those who didnt
Very heartening to see that some who didnt draw offering help to those that did; have to love the bowhunting camaraderie
Good luck and good hunting!
Bruce 'Get Out' !! haha
2nd season----I got some intel for ya....no problem.
Dang the luck Deacon Dave----next year for sure.
Congrats to all you guys!
Good luck, Robb
Congratulations to all that drew. I drew last year and it was truly a dream come true hunt. For the rest of you, hang in there.
4B for me! Will be first Elk hunt in AZ, can't wait!
ABQBW. With that attitude I hope you kill a giant bull. Congrats on the tag.
Thanks AZdog. My thoughts expressed are genuine. I'm a trophy hunter and hope to get a big bull, but it's not critical that I do. Its not that I am not super serious and intense, but I just want to have a tag in my pocket in an area with big bulls and be able to chase em for two weeks. Heaven on earth. I just love to hunt where the big boys live. Sometimes it works out and I get lucky but I always have a great experience.
Fair warning, I'll be stinkin' up your state plenty this summer scouting. I have already marked my calendar and there are a lot of days in unit 1 on it!
I hope to cross paths with some AZ bowsiters this summer and fall.
