[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1580674, member: 68875"] I have been involved with a multitude of DIY AZ elk hunts, as in no paid guides, for myself and several family members. Myself, I am 3 for 3 out of about 28 years of applying. I have terrible luck in the draw, but make the best I can out of each tag. My last tag took me 18 years to get. My 16 year old daughter is 3 for 3 in 5 years of applying. My son-in-law is 1 for 3 in 4 years of applying. My cousin is 1 for 5 I think in 25 years of applying. Several other members of the family are about 50% success rates. Probably 20 for 40. Every hunt has had opportunities, but finding one they wanted to take at a distance that was obtainable, or sealing the deal after lots of effort has escaped some people. I think, on average, 30% success rate is about an accurate estimate. Some guys go 90-100%, some guys go 0%. If you put in the time and energy, you should get a chance. Make the most out of it is where people fall short. [/QUOTE]
