This season introduces a pioneer license for one-horned bighorn sheep, targeted specifically at residents over the age of 70 who have lived in Arizona for 25 years, marking a rare chance for those eligible to participate in a “once-in-a-lifetime” hunt.
Among the changing seasons, specific dates include the cottontail rabbit season starting September 1, 2025, and various bird hunts like quail from October 17, 2025. Licenses can be easily purchased online, with prices starting at $37 for residents, ensuring that both new and seasoned hunters can prepare adequately for the upcoming opportunities.
