Anyone put in for the Utah draw? I'm in for limited deer and elk and points for a few other things. Not even gonna waste my time crossing my fingers and hoping this year.

Every year.

Going to put in this week. for deer and Antelope. Couple more years before I can put in for elk again.

ShaneTyTrey · « **Reply #3 on:** February 21, 2013, 09:12:24 PM »

Everything but Antelope

Yup. anyone know the order of draw for the OIL tags? I found everything else

Bigshooter · « **Reply #5 on:** February 22, 2013, 12:30:19 AM »

The basic big game drawing sequence
The big game drawing offers multiple types of permits but limits an applicant to drawing one once-in-a-lifetime or one limited-entry permit per year. Because of this, the drawing order may be important to you. The permit selection process follows the basic order listed in Utah Administrative Rule R657-62-19:

1.Buck deer (premium limited-entry, limited-entry, CWMU and management buck deer)
2.Bull elk (premium limited-entry, limited-entry and CWMU)
3.Buck pronghorn (limited-entry and CWMU)
4.Once-in-a-lifetime
5.Youth general buck deer
6.General-season buck deer
7.Youth any bull elk

For many hunters, knowing that general season permits are drawn after the limited-entry and once-in-a-lifetime permits is good enough. For others, it may helpful to know that limited-entry is considered before once-in-a-lifetime. Whatever your goal, know that the drawing is complicated and there are situations in which a permit may be drawn unexpectedly.

This is all I could find. Maybe you can draw all of the OIL tags in the same year?

NWWA Hunter · « **Reply #6 on:** February 22, 2013, 01:07:25 AM »

I'm pretty sure once you draw one on the list that you are done drawing for the year. I could be wrong though and I don't know if that applies to drawing a oil then a general permit

Bigshooter that "" is what I found from Utah too. I guess I just apply and don't worry about it but it sure would be nice to know it would have and effect on how I apply. Thanks for looking

I'm in for sheep, elk, deer & speed goat. I almost applied for South Slope Diamond Mtn for deer which I could draw w/ 11 pts but last minute switched back to Book Cliffs which may still take a few yrs. Hoping for a random draw tag. Good Luck all!

JPhelps · « **Reply #9 on:** February 24, 2013, 11:31:55 AM »

I was successful for limited entry deer and elk!!!

EyeTooth · « **Reply #10 on:** February 25, 2013, 04:50:04 AM »

Congrats to you Phelps! Best of luck on your hunts!

Bean Counter · « **Reply #11 on:** February 25, 2013, 05:26:04 AM »

My first year, I'll be in.

JPhelps · « **Reply #12 on:** February 25, 2013, 05:53:14 AM »

Just for points

Ridgerunner · « **Reply #13 on:** February 25, 2013, 06:01:32 AM »

In for a few things but not counting on drawing although I am up to seven points in some categories

TheHunt · « **Reply #14 on:** February 25, 2013, 07:50:09 AM »

I have 8 or 9 points... Still not enough for a good unit.

Skyvalhunter · « **Reply #15 on:** February 25, 2013, 07:34:04 PM »

Elk, deer and sheep for me.

HUNT · « **Reply #16 on:** February 25, 2013, 07:42:23 PM »

I'm in!

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #17 on:** February 25, 2013, 07:44:14 PM »

I am going to start in utah as well. How many choices do you get on the app?

boneaddict · « **Reply #18 on:** February 25, 2013, 07:55:35 PM »

Utah goes first choice first, until everyone is done.

boneaddict · « **Reply #19 on:** February 25, 2013, 07:58:26 PM »

Once drawn, you are done, or is that NM. Its Utah. This state could do that

carpsniperg2 · « **Reply #20 on:** February 25, 2013, 08:00:13 PM »

Oh cool thanks for the info. I am doing nex mexico this year as well. I am young so I figure If I start now I might get a couple tags before I kick the bucket

Skyvalhunter · « **Reply #21 on:** February 25, 2013, 08:06:04 PM »

In for New Mexico too. If I were an out of State hunter I would be putting in for NM since they have no points system. Although they went and severely limited out of state tags a couple years back.

Basket Rack · « **Reply #22 on:** February 25, 2013, 08:08:29 PM »

I am in with 11 points for elk, moose and desert bighorn and 4 deer points. I should have a pretty good shot at an archery elk tag I hope.

soccerguy · « **Reply #23 on:** February 25, 2013, 08:29:08 PM »

I hit the lottery and drew a Wasatch Mts moose tag with three points in 2010, so I'm done with that. In for everything else except points only for general deer and antelope. I thought a few folks were going to shoot me over my luck in that moose draw.

Halo · « **Reply #24 on:** February 26, 2013, 02:34:17 AM »

I'm in for everything with 4 points on most but 14 points on deer & bison. Once I spend the deer points I think I'm done with Utah, got a bison in Wyoming already and my Utah bison odds get worse the more points I get, less than 1% now, just cant justify it for the odds.

Craig · « **Reply #25 on:** February 26, 2013, 01:10:07 PM »

Done.

Deer
Antelope
Sheep
Mountain Goat

Soccerguy, how was the moose hunt?

Well, it was very short. I went self guided with a friend of mine. A month before the season, I flew to Salt Lake City and scouted the area for three days with a friend from the Provo area who is a sheep guide who knows the unit real well. The only moose we saw was a 40" bull and he asked me if that one would be big enough. I looked at him for a while and decided he would be. A month later, on opening day of the season, we want back to the same area. We passed on two small bulls the first five minutes of daylight but spotted a much larger bull about an hour later. A closer look revealed that it probably was the same bull from a month earlier, or his twin brother. Two shots later and the hunt was over. In fact, he was exactly 40" wide, but not tremendous paddles...OK for point length. I was prepared to hunt much longer but the advice I got from others who had hunted that unit said that a bull of this size was a shooter unless I was prepared to wander into the more remote, rugged areas of the unit (and there are some).

Dode · « **Reply #30 on:** February 28, 2013, 06:00:37 PM »

In for everything except Bison.

Can't complain about a 40" on the first day

. I have quite a few moose points in UT but have heard mixed reviews on the few units that non residents can put in for.

I am in for Wasatch. I don't do the private land thing.
