Arizona draw points, explained

Bonus points

Arizona uses bonus points. Each point gives you one extra random number, and up to 20% of tags in each hunt go first to the applicants with the most points. The thing that matters most: you need a valid Arizona hunting or combination license to apply, and you must apply for a species at least once every five years or you lose those points.
