    You will get on them again. I know for a fact the elk were back in where I told you I was hanging out as of Wednesday night. If you get bored you could check it out, but I say stay persistent where you had been seeing them.

    Unit 8 November Archery

    Ok here is the story behind my kill. Seemed like I was constantly surrounded by deer at almost all hours of the day. The herd of about 10 deer came in and camped out right in front of my blind the little guys were running around but I always had eyes on me. I was feeling the nerves as it was getting close to when I expected elk and about that time I could here breathing just behind me. The spike came in solo and went to work running all the deer off which was pretty entertaining. As soon as he finished that task he seemed super proud of himself and began running around in and out of the water and back and forth on the tank at about 60 yards. It reminded me of watching a horse when they get all excited, jumping, grunting and prancing around. He swung around at a full run and planted himself slightly quartered toward me at 20 yards. I drew without notice and got a good lung shot on him. He flinched back and sombered off about 50 yards and went lights out. My first archery elk and the family is happy to have me home for the holiday. All in all I couldnt have asked for a better hunt.

    Well, after 2 days of windy cold weather the elk started hitting water Sunday night for me. A couple close calls and one bone head move later (shot low in the blind window and nose dived an arrow under a nice bull last night) I pulled the release on a spike at 20 this evening. Good clean shot, and he's hanging now. Fun hunt, and good to have elk in the freezer, and few days off work still. Good luck to everyone who is still out.

    Definitely not the direction I intended this conversation to go. I guess bottom line is that no one on our side of the curtain knows what is actually happening. What we can assume is that any notification before the 20th is a bonus for us. Personally I have money on finding out Monday or Tuesday, simply because I haven't heard of any recent hits.

    Not sure how I only posted your quote, but anyhow... For what it's worth i am not the person that posted that on the facebook page. I actually got hit pretty early for an archery bull tag so I'm not to worried. I just didn't see any replies to it so I was curious if there was any validity to it. Seemed like bs to me though.

    I have been trolling for a while and have finally decided to sign up so here s my first post.... I read the following on the AZGF facebook page "OK, UPDATE ON DRAW - Many credit card companies thought the way the charge was coded by azgfd that they were "fraud" charges. Therefore they were rejected and the next person in line was drawn... problem here is the person rejected was notified and not too happy... Look for a commission meeting soon to see how azgfd will rectify this situation... Bottom line: Don't get too excited yet, having your credit card charged may be reversed and YES, just one more reason to GET RID OF THE ONLINE DRAW!!!! Don't go out and buy any new equipment quite yet!" Is there any validity to this or is it just BS?
