Disabled Veterans ProgramsTuesday, May 20, 2014

Disabled Veterans Special Big Game Tag Program
The Disabled Veterans Special Big Game Tag Program allows a qualified organization to apply for a special big game hunt tag on behalf of a disabled veteran. A qualified organization is defined as a 501(c)(3) or 501 (c)(19) nonprofit organization, or a government agency, with a mission to afford opportunities, experiences and assistance to disabled veterans. The program is not limited to organizations in Idaho. Idaho Fish and Game makes five tags available each year for disabled veterans for any deer, elk, pronghorn, moose, black bear or mountain lion hunt. Tags may be requested for general or controlled hunts. An additional five tags may be available each year. Participants are exempt from licensing requirements. The program is a first-come, first-served, once in a lifetime opportunity. The application, at the link below, must be used to apply.

Wow!! Infinity! For years I've kicked myself in the backside for not living in Idaho instead of Clarkston so I could have bought a life time license when I lived over there in the mid 80s. This is great News!!  Thanks for sharing!!   :tup:

So does anybody know where to start in Idaho? I have looked at the harvest stats. But it is almost like throwing darts at a map and saying lets go there.

I called WA DAV yesterday (1-800-562-2308) & got my letter to verify my 40% today. I will fax a copy of the letter to IDFG Licensing tomorrow. (208)333-2148 fax. They told me once they update my profile I can go in & buy licenses/tags at the reduced rate & you only have to do this once not each year. I'll let you know how I do. 

Thank You Idaho!!  :tup:
