what are the most coveted hunting tags in the U.S.?

[Gary Devine]

When I hunted for elk in the back country of Idaho, I ran into an Idaho resident moose hunter. He said Idaho gives their moose tags only to residents. I guess I should be thankful that Maine gives non residents ten percent.

Arizona has three of them, which may seem strange because overall we have significantly fewer big game animals (sheer numbers) than other states. Here they are, in order of draw difficulty:

1. Desert Bighorn Sheep
2. Kaibab Mule Deer rifle season.
3. Early rifle season bull elk.

According to the published AZ Game & Fish statistics, your chance for being drawn is about 0.001%
