moose random drawing question
« on: November 13, 2014, 08:53:45 AM »
I was told that when you put in for the drawing if you don't get drawn you get your money back except for a small portion, is this true or do you not get any back?
"One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted...If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job."

You donate your 6 bucks and then you get nothing back.   In the old days you fronted the cash, then got a refund

I am all for going back to fronting the cash...it might weed a few out and make the draw odds better...Give me a better chance of getting at least one OIL tag before I get too old... :twocents:

I apply for moose in ID for this reason. Atleast I tell myself it weeds some out that do not want to front the tag money.

Couple things that help with Idaho.   Money up front,  NO POINTS, can only apply for ONE OIL per year of application, and cant put in for elk or deer if you put in for an OIL.   

Drew FIRST year I put in.
Dad drew FIRST year he put in

Seems like a good place as any to ask another moose question...if I draw moose in wa or idaho and do not fill my tag am I allowed to keep putting in for it ? Is it oil draw or oil to fill the tag ?

In Washington you cannot apply again if you harvest a moose. I don't know about Idaho.

That is not correct for Idaho or Washington.  Once in a lifetime harvest...although mathematically in Washington it is probably functionally correct to say its OIL draw  :chuckle:
