Anyone know typically when this happens historically? It says by 5/31 but maybe someone has an inside scoop? I'm trying to tie down my AZ hunt but can't until I know about Utah. Good problem I know. Thanks!

Results are traditionally early, I doubt a month though.

Edit: I doubt a month early.

So you think lightening will strike twice? Maybe you'll hit the San Juan tag:)

I'm thinking a month from now.

Last year I got the horrible email on May 18 and it was sent May 31 the two years before. Forum posts confirming credit card hits started May 12 last year and May 16 in 2015 and 2014.

Good info guys, thanks.

Charlie: I just have a feeling the deer tag may be mine. I had 8 for LE archery deer and it usually takes a couple more but has been drawn with 8. It is possible I draw the elk tag with 12 but far from a lock. But drawing the unit I did in AZ with 4 was definitely lightning!

Yep, if you do draw in Utah it will be a second lightning strike for sure but if you do draw the dates are perfect for doing both as there is virtually no overlap dates. Good Luck! C

Yep. My issue will be taking the second week in Az instead of the first to make one trip. A guy can hope right?

Its such a major PITA for those of us that need to block time for vacation. Spouse and I are on the waiting list for elk but hoping my 12 year old beats the odds for a bull tag.

New Mexico has proven that it doesn't need to take so long to process a draw.

Steve, that was a freak deal. Hopefully it keeps happening though.

Good Planning SteveB with 1 trip west but 2 great tags/hunts!

HDE--you certainly know the SJ with your yearly spike/cow bow hunt down there.

Yup--Mothers Day wknd seems to be the Credit Card hits wknd.

Good luck, Robb
