AZBIG10 Report post Posted August 2, 2022 the dept bends their own rules and regulations to make more money. That’s a bit shady imo I would go on a limb that the one deer a year was a pretty concrete rule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If not and influencers get the tags, I suspect that's literally criminal.... Who did you predict got the tag? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SunDevil Report post Posted August 2, 2022 I saw an elk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azcouesandelk Report post Posted August 2, 2022 There was an elk killed by a girl from up in Kingman. Her dad signed it over to her after an accident Also saw 1 mule deer that was drawn by an outfitters wife. Lastly saw the central coues bucks that was maybe 90. I don’t believe any of those 3 were influencers but I may be wrong 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you were to win an auction tag or raffle tag you can exceed the bag limit for that species, back in the eighties there were so many leftover tags you could kill 2 deer a year as long as 1 tag was a leftover.

Does Javelina sound familiar? It's the "we need more money so let's make a fake draw" for me. The dept boasted to have banner Years financially and infact had residual dollars to pay to influencers. I can back the raffle tags and auction tags even tho I don't participate. But there was a process to having these types of tags implemented. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SunDevil Report post Posted August 2, 2022 They should have two special deer and elk tags for every unit in the state. One would be for raffle and one would be for auction. This is similar to UT 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
