My card just got hit. There's still hope. I put myself, my wife, and both of my kids in. So we will have to wait until next week to see who got the tag. But either way, we'll be hunting bull elk together as a family this fall. Woot woot.

I heard they had an issue yesterday and stopped processing but are back up and and at it today. I got hit a few minutes ago.

I heard the same. Something went wrong with the group who runs the credit cards. They're hitting cards like crazy right now though.

I heard a rumor from a reputable friend. The company who runs the credit cards for AZGFD made a mistake on the first day, and was only able to run like 30% of the tags. The main draw took place the second day. There was definitely a screw up.
