Ah...the good old days!
Pin it to the back of your blaze orange vest so the warden knows you're not poaching

Greetings AZF,
Drew the late rifle limited opportunity any elk tag in units 17-20...... Looks to be tough which I am ok with, but is there elk? I am in Kingman and planning to scout, but after reading, I am considering if there are any elk out there. I am military and only have so much leave to burn....I cant be out there for 3 weeks unfortunately. Additionally, due to all the military moving, its hard to get to know an area really well. Does anyone know how many of those tags are given out each year. I am a relativity new hunter and I cant seem to find that info. I am thinking for targeting 17A or 19B. Its such a big area. If you feel inclined to offer any assistance, or just to chat about it, please message me, it would be very appreciative.

What are your dates? Cow only or any elk, or antlered?
In total, there's 635 tags for that limited-opps elk hunt in those units for 2023, spread over a few dates and different elk requirements. Antlered, antlerless, or any.
To say you're in for a tough hunt is probably an understatement. People who know where elk are in these units are not going to share info lightly, because they're hard to find and low in density. Telling someone where your area is is almost certainly going to "ruin" that area for you. Most guys hunting these units successfully live in the units and/or have weeks/months to scout and find them before the season.
Good luck!

Welcome to AHF PackMule !!! Its a doable hunt, a + is you live in Kingman, so for a couple hours drive you can reach most of the units. The elk are there, you have to go find them, the areas I know off, well lets say, Im keeping quite on, they were hard to find. Get out and look, you got a few months to find them, Find Cover and water, thats my only hints. Good Luck !!!

I know I say this often when someone is looking for help but in this case G&F gives some good pointers on elk and those units. Go to the G&F Web Page, Hunting, Where to Hunt and then find those units. I took a quick look and there are some good starting points.
The Regs/Season booklet gives info on all of the units, the number of tags for those and the hunt dates for them. It too is on-line on G&F page.
Then, when you have done some research, including perhaps some tromping in the woods, call the Kingman G&F Office, ask to speak with the Game Manager BUT, I would not do that until I had done some of my own work. He/She is likely to send you to the Web Site to read and ask if you have done any legwork.
