Welcome to the show, it’s tag Tuesday boys and girls. Where we go super hunting nerd and talk in depth about how to apply for as a nonresident in Arizona. This week I am joined by Austin Atkinson of Hunting Fool. Austin actually grew up in Arizona and has both hunted and guided in Arizona numerous times. Not only does Austin have some great tips for applying but he also so has some great tips on late season hunting as they have taken some monster bulls on the late hunts.
Big thanks to today’s show sponsor ON X Hunt. On X hunt is not only just the best private/public mapping system. The new On X Hunt app has a ton of cool features like location sharing. I bet you thought that was just for when your hunting, nope! If you’re like me and you get far more lost in the city than in the mountains you can have your buddy James Nash send you a pin on where to meet for dinner. True story that happened last week. The On X hunt app is one of my top picks for tools under $100, Get 20% off your membership when you sign up and use The Rich Outdoors promo code TRO.
This show also brought to you by goHUNT insider. goHUNT.com/insider is a must-have for tag season. Take Arizona for example, if you only want to use your Arizona points on a big bull, you can set your filters to only show units with 350+ bulls, or maybe you’re looking for the second choice late season hunt with the best draw odds, you can set your filter for that. GoHUNT.com is a great tool and I spend far to much time on it this time of year. I think I get my money worth in the first month of the year. Do me a favor help support the podcast use the promo code TRO and get $50 in store credit to the gear shop.
