Arizona hunters will have an opportunity to receive a hunt permit-tag for select 2020 deer, fall turkey and fall youth-only javelina hunts.
There are 287 leftover hunt permit-tags available for general deer hunts, with most of those hunts being for antlered whitetail deer only in Game Management Units (GMUs) in the southeastern portion of the state.
There also are leftover hunt permit-tags for muzzleloader deer (221), youth-only muzzleloader deer (1), turkey (119) and youth-only javelina (46) hunts.
For a complete list of leftover hunt permit-tags, as well as a printable paper application, visit the AZGFD website. Paper applications also can be found at more than 200 license dealers statewide (call in advance for availability).
The Arizona Game and Fish Department will accept paper applications for leftover hunt permit-tags — by mail only — beginning July 20. All completed paper applications must be addressed to: Arizona Game and Fish Department, Attn.: Draw/First Come, 5000 W. Carefree Highway, Phoenix, AZ 85086. There is no “mini” draw. Allow 10 to 15 business days to receive a hunt permit-tag by mail.

There’s something about the deer-hunting experience, indefinable yet undeniable, which lends itself to the telling of exciting tales. This book offers abundant examples of the manner in which the quest for whitetails extends beyond the field to the comfort of the fireside. It includes more than 40 sagas which stir the soul, tickle the funny bone, or transport the reader to scenes of grandeur and moments of glory.
