creed Report post Posted August 5, 2022 Screw the elk tags. If I could hunt desert muleys with a rifle during the rut I think I could kill a 200” buck. The biggest problem would be finding one that isn’t busted up. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coueswt Report post Posted August 5, 2022 AZ G&F needs to increase the NR fees. Other states are cutting NR tags and increasing the NR fees. Even requiring NR to buy points after the draw for more revenue in some states. NR have it pretty good in AZ compared to most other states. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most states give non residents more than 10% Colorado is a $100 license, az 160. Wyoming doesn’t even having hunting licenses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wyoming doesn’t even having hunting licenses. New Mexico gives only 6% of its tags to nonresidents; AZ, UT, CA, OR, MT, ID, WA, only allocate 10% of tags to nonresidents; South Dakota gives 0% to nonresidents. I believe Nevada also has a cap on NR. Wy. is trying hard to get deer, elk and antelope also capped at 10% to NR. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NM is looking at not allowing NR apply for Sheep tags anymore even though the only reason they have sheep is because of NR. Here is what a NR has to pay for ELk tags across the west right now and think of the quality of hunt you get here in AZ compared to some of these other states if your able to get drawn: NV $1,200 plus license CO $701 plus license MT $934 plus license ID $652 plus license CA $1,568 plus license UT $1,000 plus license NM $773 plus license WY $1,283 sp plus license AZ $650 plus license Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yuma Outdoorsman Report post Posted August 18, 2022 The thought of hunting desert mule deer in February with a rifle when no other hunter is out there is why I put in for the hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
