They mailed mine to me, but you can just print off this one and mail it in.

Just wanted to let ya'll know.

THanx 270.  I will be working on my antelope application Monday.  Will use this link.  Sounds like we might be headed to the same part of the state.  Good luck.

Hey pathfinder,

I think this app is just for the combo licenses. Elk, Elk/deer, and deer combo. I think antalope licenses will be out later in the year since they aren't due until june 1st. But if your putting in for deer and or elk the deadline is march 15 I think.

[Pathfinder101]

hmm, thanks.  I'll take a look.  You puttin' in for the combo?

[270Shooter]

hmm, thanks.  I'll take a look.  You puttin' in for the combo?

Yea I will put in for deer A. And If I don't draw that I will still have time to put in for anatlope .

i got mine in the mail fri. and reading through the regs that come with it. i saw that land owners were only going to get 2 tags to give out. if thats true theres going to be some unhappy people out there this yr.but i might have interpreted wrong. did anyone read that part?

[Craig]

looks like they put a draw odds page out this year. I will be putting in shortly.

I have never done one of these before.

How does it work?  Also, do you have to pay th entire amount when you apply?

[bowhunterforever]

Dam i better get mine feld out and sent back before its to late! Yes 300ultramag you have to send them the whole amount and if you don't get draw you get all your money back unless you buy a bonus point, then they just take $20 out for the point and send you the rest back!

 Looks to me like deer apps are also not due until June 1st.

[NRA4LIFE]

Any of the combo applications (Deer A, Elk, Deer-Elk, etc) must be postmarked on or before March 16th.
