How It Hunted, 2025
| Who | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| Archery-only bull, early | 50 | 30 | 60% |
| Archery-only antlerless | 45 | 24 | 53% |
| Youth-only (general) | 118 | 103 | 87% |

Adding up Arizona Game & Fish Department's published lines for Unit 22 gives 213 hunters and 157 elk taken in 2025, and 74% of them took an elk (sum of published weapon rows). The first rows are hunters holding this license type; the rest of the area's hunters held something else. Arizona's figures come from AZGFD's post-season hunter questionnaire - survey estimates carrying a 90% confidence interval and a return count, not a census of animals checked in.

About These Numbers
Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward. How we compute these.
