SPECIAL NOTE:
***During the March 15, 2024, Commission meeting, the Commission directed the Department to notify the Wildlife Conservation Organizations that for the 2025-2026 Special Big Game Tag season, there will only be “one” tag up for auction. This includes the Commissioners Elk Tag. Additionally, according to the Commission’s direction for the 2026-2027 SBG tag season, auction sale of Arizona SBG tags will not be permitted.
After the 2025-26 season there will be NO MORE ARIZONA GAME AND FISH COMMISSIONER AUCTION TAGS!

This is the opportunity of a lifetime to harvest one of the largest, free-ranging Rocky Mountain bull elk in the world! No other state consistently produces huge bulls the way Arizona does, and this tag gives the winning bidder the maximum opportunity to harvest one of these massive animals. Arizona has a long history of record book elk and 2023 was no exception with bulls well over 400 inches. The hunter will have 365 days of premier access to 32 of Arizona's prime elk Units. All proceeds from the sale of this tag will be used to benefit elk in Arizona.
Offered by the Arizona Elk Society. AES is a 501(c)3 tax exempt charitable organization.
