Deer multi season question

[SuperDave]

Last year I applied and wasn't selected.  Two weeks before the general season, I was notified that I was selected and had my plans set for the year so I didn't purchase it.  Does anyone know if my preference points go back to zero for not purchasing it?

[bobcat]

Yes I believe you lost your points. At least I know I did the first year they had the multi-season permits. I was drawn for one of them the first time, didn't purchase it. Then a couple months later received a letter saying I was selected for the other one, and I didn't purchase it either. My points for both deer and elk multi-season went to zero. I haven't applied since.

kinda figured that, sounds like it will get easier to obtain them in the future, so shouldn't be an issuse.  Thankyou for your response!

I lost my point the second year I think, was drawn for the elk 2nd round but never notified and they jerked my points . I just put in for my spring bear and noticed a spot to submit the multi season deer and elk, I don't remember this from last year I thought once you bought it you were automatically submitted??? I went through the process anyway just in case, anyone know what the... ?

Good question, saw that as well and did the same.

I was checking out the list of hunts and points that I have applied for and have accumulated over the last 4 years, and noticed that they stated that I drew for multi-season elk in 2006,when I had not ever received any information on this. Fired off a letter to fish and wildlife and after a week received an e-mail saying (after review, since you never purchased this tag we are awarding you a elk bonus point)! Food for thought?

I have applied the last two years but have yet to draw, odds would say I have a decent chance this year?

I am the most unlucky person in the world.  My brother in the last three years has been drawn for deer twice and elk once.  I have yet to get drawn.  The only reason I put in for elk is the chance to hunt the west side for branch bulls. 

My luck this year I'll get drawn multi-season elk and I'll also finally draw my Peaches Ridge tag   Oh well I guess if I ate my branch tag I could still join the orange sea during rifle season.

when you buy the app do you get put in for it automaticly or do you have to fill out the app and send it in?

i want to buy mine for both deer and elk this week before the deadline.

Im not sure if you have to but I purchased mine and then also submitted them....

Multi-Season Permit Application
Deadline is February 28
Hunters are reminded that the deadline for purchase of Multi-season Permit applications is February 28, 2009.  Applications are automatically submitted once purchased.

There is another part of the website that says you do have to submit them though, so I did it anyway.

[mossback91]

Yeah I submitted to just to make sure......it didnt take but a few seconds to do either

[colockumelk]

Damn I thought I had until March 15th.  Guess my heads been in the clouds, thanks.

I called the game department and they stated, "Once you purchase the application you have to go online and submit just as you would with all other permits." Hopefully that will help you out.

I'm trying to put in as a group leader with my dad.  But it wont let me.  I thought we could now put in as a group.  WTF.  Did anyone put in as a duo?  If so how.
