Arizona Pronghorn Draw FAQ
When do Arizona pronghorn applications close and when do I find out if I drew?
Applications close February 3 for the 2026 draw. Results post February 23. Once you know your status, you'll have a clear window to prepare for your hunt or apply again next year with an extra bonus point.
How much does it cost to apply for Arizona pronghorn as a nonresident?
The application fee is $15. If you draw a tag, the tag fee is $565. Residents pay $13 to apply and $103 for the tag, so nonresident costs are significantly higher.
Can I draw pronghorn in Arizona with zero bonus points?
Yes. Zero-point hunters have drawn tags in multiple units in recent years. Units 1 and 9 both had zero-point rifle buck tags draw at 0.9% in 2024. Several archery units—10, 11M, and 12A—showed zero-point draws in 2023, though odds and success rates vary widely by unit and season.
What's the difference between rifle and archery hunts in Arizona pronghorn draws?
Both are available in the same draw system. Archery hunts sometimes show different draw odds and success rates than rifle hunts in the same unit. For example, Unit 12A archery saw 100% harvest success in 2023, while Unit 11M archery had 25% success the same year—so unit selection and your weapon choice both matter.
