ARIZONA SMALL GAME CHALLENGE

 The Arizona Small Game Challenge is brought to you by a partnership between the Arizona Game & Fish Department and the Valley of the Sun Quail Forever Chapter!  These four (4) individual challenges recognize the diverse landscapes of Arizona and rewards the small game hunter for accomplishing a yearly challenge.

   
Your registration fee of $25 (you are only eligible for 1 challenge for each year) will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Valley of the Sun Quail Forever Chapter to improve habitat that will directly benefit all small game species in Arizona.
   
A hunter who completes his or her first challenge will receive a plaque from the AZGFD that includes an engraving plate to mark the achievement. The plaque comes with space for additional engraving plates as the hunter completes their remaining challenges.
