Multiseason

[whacker1]

Multi season deer tags and second deer tags are going to decrease in price, according to the 2014 proposals, which will be adopted by the WDFW Commission in a couple weeks.

So, if I am reading correctly.  If you spend $117.50 on deer+elk+bear+cougar w/discounted small game license + 180 multi season for a total of $297.50, they are now subtracting $39 from that total for $258.50.  Am I reading that correctly?

Sure, I think so. Any lawyers on here to verify?

I love that they can't just mark down the price of the multi-season after identifying the situation, but rather do a mark down on the deer or elk combination of choice.  The jack wagon that came up with this plan needs to be slapped upside the head.

if they would have made the multi-season $140-150 they would probably would sell more applications and fill the deer permits more readily.

Oh well.  If you confuse the masses, it will leave less competition for me.

Elitest is why

   good one.

To each their own but I don't see why anyone would put in $7 to be considered for something and then turn it down

There were some threads a while back where a few guys said they do this to keep down the crowds of the 'not really into their methods'.  They said they wanted 'their seasons' to only be guys that liked 'that method'.  They were concerned that a guy that was into (example here) rifle hunting would get a multiseason, then go buy a cheapy bow and fling a dozen arrows and call it good.  Then they would have to deal with an extra person in the archery season that they felt was likely to get in the way and would wound too many animals due to lack of proficiency.  They said the $7 bought some good peace of mind.

I guess that makes sense, I understand why some would choose to do that.  I wouldn't

To me it sounds kind of similar to anti-hunters buying applications for tags to water down the chances of a real hunter drawing the tag. 

Again, to each their own.  That definitely isn't my style though.

I dont think there is enough elk MS to really even have a noticable effect. I understand the issue of getting rifle guys who draw a MS tag never bow hunted and just go buy a bow. I see it in ID..the first week of archery is full of yahoos running around and by Sept 15 they are all gone and its just the "Archery" guys

   are you saying that road hunting during early archery isn't a good idea? 

Opening week in September is wild 'n' out with bear road hunters and people who lost their right to firearms 

Then a few weeks later, it is quiet enough to hear a pin drop and you're only halfway through season.
