    1)Pin points your exact location of harvest

    2)Biggest down fall is that you have to drive to the azgf office to buy the ETag.

    Thank you for the response.

     

    1) This is from the AZGFD webpage that I linked in the opening post:

    "Can you ensure my privacy? Yes, AZGFD’s mobile application meets all data security requirements including encryption of personally

    identifiable information. Location data is not collected."

     

    2) Only for OTC E-tags, not for the regular draws in which case there is no actual tag.

    Easy to use, but there are a few drawbacks.

    You have to go to AZGFD to buy your tags.  I was told that in the future they may implement kiosks at dealers to streamline the buying process tho.

     

    Thank you.

    Just to confirm, if I sign up for the E-Tag app, I can still buy paper (non E-tag) OTC tags locally, right?

     


  3. I'm considering signing my son and I up for the app before the elk draw deadline.

    I'm asking anyone who's used it to share their experience good or bad and what's

    the biggest benefit or drawback about the system that you've noticed, if any.

     

    Thank you in advance.

    Yes. Did a lot of glassing and a lot of hiking. Only turned up 3 bulls and about 20 cows in 3 days of hunting. First bull was too far off in the spotting scope to see if he was broken up, second bull had his entire left beam broken off, and this one I harvested was broken off on both backs. 

    Fandamntastic job, man!

     

    I was in Unit 10 on an antler-less hunt this year and I agree with your previous post about the number of tags being sold compared to elk.


     

     

     

     


  6. Update:

    Mazy's was able to fix the issue without the drawing. Good guys who are really good at what they do. Thanks again Dave and Jim!

    ===============================================================================

    As many of you know they (T/C) went out of business.

     

    My T/C Triumph Bone Collector is currently inoperable ( something in the trigger assembly broke) and needs to be repaired.

     

    The gunsmith, Mazy's in Chino Valley needs a parts diagram to attempt to fix it but I can't find one online. I already called

    Smith & Wesson who bought T/C but had no luck getting a drawing or schematic of the gun! 

     

    I have a HAM javelina hunt in February and was planning on using it. That probably won't happen now but I figured I'd try

    asking here to see if anyone could procure a drawing for me?

     

     

     

    I have started learning archery but literally just started and will probably not be ready to use a bow to hunt in a month. 

    I might just have to use this beater instead.

  7. I got a late start to hunting. I moved to AZ from Sarasota in 2003. I've fished AZ quite a bit but only started to hunt in 2019. 

    The main reason I decided to start was I wanted my two son's to practice some of the numerous skills and traits that hunting

    teaches like patience, persistence and discipline. And to have them spend as much time outside enjoying nature as possible.

     

    I did draw an early antler-less tag in a good unit my first year applying and I was successful on that hunt. And even though

    I did my pre-scouting and camped in the unit before hand that season, I basically shot a fish in a barrel, on morning three.

     

    I've been applying for a late, antler-less hunt closer to home the past two years and drew tags. Both of those hunts ended 

    with my tags still in hand but I learned tons about the unit and elk scouting and hunting in general.

     

    Now, it seems to me like maybe old dad's the one out there learning some of the lessons I wanted my son's to practice while

    hunting and scouting. Because after two years, a lot of patience, persistence, discipline and disappointment, I think I may have

    a good grasp of this unit and antler-less elk hunting. Because after scouting, camping and spending countless hours on OnX

    I came up with a good plan A, B and C and was finally able to fill the freezer with elk meat this season, on opening morning! 

     

    I'm looking forward to many more years of spending time out in nature with my boys and coming home with tasty, healthy food.

    I have a cabelas commercial one H.P. with a 22 neck 1 1/2 years old. Comes with a foot pedal control . Used twice and shows as new. I somehow ended up with two grinders . I have $650.00 invested and am asking $450.00. Works as it should.

    I'll take it. I sent you a personal message with my contact info.
