    Here's your chance to fix the AZGFD draw application

    Sounds like a plan!

    Utah Peeps or others with experience

    Not sure what ur talkin about. I drew my deer tag last year, when I was ready. Could have drawn it earlier if I wanted. Worked out fine. As for sheep, lope & elk I rarely, if ever, say anything because my choices change annually based season dates & the rest of my schedule. And the odds are so low.

    Nevada Draw/Results 2025-2026

    Finally did my appl last night. It takes me longer than any state due to the five choices/species. My strategy was to pick all five longshots for deer because if I ever burn my 17 I’ll have little motivation to stay in the game despite 26 both sheep, 8 elk & 25 pronghorn. Only a slight chance...

    Maine Moose

    That bull has amazing palmated fronts. Very unusual. Mine’s all NT tines only.

    Maine Moose

    I’m playin with house money anyway since drawing w/1% chance in New Hampshire 2013. I got a pretty good 53 1/2” DIY bull that year. Most the bulls up there are all tines, but mine had big paddles. Will let my resident step-nephew in Lewiston shoot this one if I ever do draw.

    Offrange NM Oryx Hunt 2025

    My 2nd & 3rd choices are always off range. Sometimes all three. At 65, if I ever draw, I'll probably mix hunting on foot, and driving around to give my body a break.

    2025 NM draw results

    Postponing lots of decisions until NM results are posted. Utah & Nevada applications, and possibly changing WY elk unit.

    2025 NM draw results

    The first year I applied the NR draw odds for VV were 15% and I drew as 1st choice. Much has changed since then. These days I just want the draw to post so I can get my money back. Expecting 5 reds as usual.

    Maine Moose

    NR with max convoluted points (150?), submitted my one chance early as usual. The one good thing about this system is I don't have to be concerned with overlapping hunts due to the tag swap deal. Anyone know if any more of the NR quota was pissed away to outfitter welfare this year? I don't...

    China Milu Deer

    No. But this is a first. Farmers are suffering crop damage. At some point some type of population control will be neccesary.

    China Milu Deer

    I really don’t think so. The species reintroduction results are being recognized as the most successful on the planet. If they continue to multiply at the same rate they have been, the population should exceed 100k by 2030.

    China Milu Deer

    We don’t do anything “undocumented” nor illegal. Not sure what ur talking about.

    China Milu Deer

    Forky, Yes they have an iron rice bowl pension system, but welfare, food stamps, unemployment are rare to non-existent. And they certainly don’t have communes nor land redistribution any longer. Those are in the distant 1976 past. Thus, communism is long gone there.

    China Milu Deer

    Again, I certainly don’t defend their government. Just pointing out a fact about its totalitarianist political system. It’s only communist in name (CCP), not in policy.

    China Milu Deer

    No that was not me. I did not comment about any freedoms, and certainly don’t defend their actions. Just pointing out a fact about their totalitarianist political system.

    China Milu Deer

    I don’t hunt them. I’m just telling you what my cousin described. I just know some phrases. But wife is an English teacher, so she is my translator.

    China Milu Deer

    Map drawn up in the early 70’s. I think most people don’t know how the real world works, because they haven’t been there. I have. Many times over ten years. But did see an interesting news article last week trying to educate viewers on terminology & labels. The term China and Chinese people...

    Since 2015 visited each year three weeks, except during Covid when not allowed.

    China Milu Deer

    Based on what I’ve gathered, China doesn’t even have a F&G Dept yet. I have a cousin in Chengdu who belongs to their city archery club. He says the only hunting the club members do is for wild hogs in the mountains. It is not legal, but some members go anyway. I’ll be finding out more now that...

    China Milu Deer

    I have a new dream hunt. Although there is not yet a season, Milu deer repopulation in China has been an outstanding wildlife success story. From zero to 12,000 in 40 years. I just retired and the wife and I will live in our Sichuan home 4 months/year, Indiana home 8 months/year. Hoping an...
