Frequently Asked Questions

What are the current draw odds for Arizona Elk Unit 04A?
The most recent published odds are 100% for combined-pool applicants in 2025 — 1 applicants for 3 tags on the Rifle General Rifle Oct antlerless hunt. Arizona publishes applicants and tags but no point threshold with these numbers, so this is the odds for the whole pool — not what a given point total would draw.
How many preference/bonus points do I need for Arizona Elk Unit 04A?
We won't guess. The Arizona report behind these tables gives applicants, tags, and the odds that fall out of them — it carries no point thresholds, so nothing here can tell you what your points would draw. Points still matter when you apply; check the agency's own preference-point report for the cutoff, and read the resident and nonresident rows below separately.
Is the competition increasing for Arizona Elk Unit 04A?
Competition in the combined-pool pool for the Rifle General Rifle Oct antlerless hunt looks decreasing or stable. Odds ran 13.4% in 2024 and 100% in 2025. The other pool can move the other way, so check both tables.
