Arizona CC's Getting Hit for Elk/Lope
Arizona started hitting CC's yesterday. Buddy and I will be returning first time since 2002. Will be nice considering I settled for a leftover MT last year, most overcrowded hunt I ever experienced. Good luck!

Ya and looks like I struck out on all my ~40 other applications, even with ~20 points. But that's fine just more time I can devote to doing this hunt right. It's unit 1 which we barely squeezed in at with 15 points. There were 15 NR preference tags and 10 went to 16+ point holders, leaving us only a 1 in 3 chance for the 15 point pool. Prolly easiest elk terrain in the country.

Spoke too soon. Got hit back-to-back-to-back for WY lope, Iowa deer, and now another Kaibab archery mule deer tag 2nd year in a row. So four draw tags this year. Been a while since I got this lucky.

Topped it off by drawing both shotgun & muzzleloader permits at my two 1st choice Illinois public properties. Yikes what a year. Geared up by upgrading my slug gun to a Savage 220 topped with a Nikon Slughunter scope.
How everyone else has luck in the draws as well.
