All,

Arizona is hitting credit cards starting today for elk and pronghorn. MY CC shows a pending charge for the price of an elk tag! Hope everybody has the luck of the irish today.

No. All that has happened is cc were ran for drawn applicants. The portal won't update for a week or two with results

7W or 7E late rifle for me. Never hunted elk here so I'm gonna have to get to work on scouting. Already notified boss and the wife that I'll be off the grid

Nothing yet. I've got enough points that I should be a shoe-in for early archery. Do you think they are done with hitting credit cards?

I believe they are 95% done hitting cards. All that is left are the apps for the rejected cards to be hit for the next man in line. IMO

Thanks for the pep talk! Yeah, based on my experience if you don't get hit in the initial wave it isn't going to happen at all. So much for my 100% draw odds on gohunt.

Nothing like shining the spot light on the good odds probably doubled the applicants​

I have wondered how that would affect the draws as everyone is using those programs now. I think a lot of people will be jumping from unit to unit chasing the best draw odds and actually throw their own odds out of whack. Will be curious to see next year how many jumped to certain units to try to take advantage

GoHunt odds are from 2016. You need the point pools to determine odds going into the 2017 draw and even then guys can jump in ahead of you. I went thru the odds using the point pools for a resident a while back. I didn't find the thread to see who it was.

Wapatibob, That was me! You are the source of all my false hope! I'm kidding obviously. I learned a lot from your post, but unfortunately it looks like a bunch of folks must have applied to my unit that didn't last year.

I will have the point pool numbers in a few weeks so we can go over them then. I didn't draw either. I kept looking at the numbers and hoping but they kept whispering "you're a point short".
