No one is faulting Randy for doing his job. He is named because he is the influencer that AZGFD contracted with to promote OTC archery deer and other opportunities. We asked AZGFD to stop this promotion and we included Randy in that request. I shared with him why I felt like this particular...
I believe they can only sell NR tags. I learned that once when driving back to Idaho from SLC and tried to buy a tag in Tremonton on my way to my hunt area.
I am not missing the point . . . I did post the petition and shared it in my circles. Its important to distinguish that I am not trying to stand against AZGFD, just trying to change a behavior which is contributing to a problem. I directed the petition to the dept, not Randy. But I shared it...

I apologize if you felt deceived by my petition, I made sure to tag your platforms when it was...
Hey Randy nice to see you made it off the goat mountains safely. Congrats on the goat and I hope your mom is well.
For those who don’t know me my name is Andrew Gillett and I organized this petition. I agree with many things Randy has said here, but the assertion that you are easy to reach and...
