[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1513774, member: 88320"] In AZ you have to buy a hunting license then apply for the big game draw hunts. The hunting license is non refundable $175 non resident, but the price for each species is refundable if you don’t draw. You can use the same hunting license for 2 draws if you time it right.Your points apply to your 1 and 2 choices, unlike Colorado where your points only apply to your first choice. You get a point for every year you don’t draw, and you can get an extra loyalty point if you apply 5 years in row I believe. The license are allotted on a weighted entry so each year your odds of drawing increase. Then there is a certain % of licenses (10 percent I think)that are held for max point holders in the unit. But a first year applier has a chance to draw but a 10 yr has a 10X better chance. I don’t know if you can just buy a point. Colorado is a true point system where you don’t even get a in the draw unless you have enough points to draw the hunt. So high demand hunts you will wait 15+ years to get enough points to draw and by the time you get there the point creep Will have increased so it might take 20 points before you have a chance. I hate points systems. In each state only a % of licenses go to non residence, I think 10% in AZ and not sure in CO [/QUOTE]
