I know I could look in the regs, but remind me how this tag works...apply and you get the call whenever a hunt is determined? Do you pay up front or only when you get called? Awesome...

Those are cool hunts. A good friend of mine killed a nice 6 point on the round valley depredation hunt last week

These are population management hunts. Basically you turn in an app checking which species you are interested in hunting and AZGFD keeps it on file.

 

When they need some critters killed they pull names from the file randomly and call the applicants until they get enough people to say yes.

Awesome bull.

 

Just because nobody else did.....it's "depredation".....just so you know. Not trying to be a jerk.

It is a population management hunt, not a depredation hunt.

I always knew these hunts as depredation hunts and understood it to be additional hunts added when there is a need. I Decided to check the definition after the last couple comments and now Im confused too.

Now see, I read it entirely differently...

 

Since he was "deprived" of a traditional tag in the draw, it naturally become his "deprivation" tag! ;)

 

 

(& yes I'm bored...)
