SPECIAL HUNT MESSAGE

The 2017 Special Hunt drawing has NOT yet occurred. The drawing will be completed before July 1, 2017.  As we prepare for the Special Hunt drawing, the Special Hunt link has been disabled within your WILD account. Once the drawing has been completed, the link will become available for you to review the results. If you are selected for a Special Hunt, you will be contacted via the email address in your WILD account.


I guess you could look at your points and if something drops to zero it would indicate you were selected. Most likely those will not change until the draw anyway. Have fun waiting!

The rumor I heard was that my son and I were drawn for everything we put in for and they are investigating how that could have happened without tampering.  I think it was just luck!!!   :-)

I agree.  I believe the new site has new many bells and whistles. Haven said that, I'm pretty sure the backdoor method of checking early results is a thing of the past.  I think that's a pretty good thing👍

Patience people...   the new and improved system is now making you wait until July for results!   Lol. I find this absolutely hilarious.   No more backdoor and just wait another month.


I did hear you're more likely to draw OIL's as a group with the new system though.

I wonder if it has something to do with the bear sprimg draw process and they are disabling it so that cant happen again

I would assume that's the case. Make sure they got it right before someone has a chance to see the results.

Remember when you had to wait for them to come in the mail. When they went to the computer/online system I could see a tag I was drawn for in 2007 and never received the card in the mail had no idea.

Great.... not only is there no backdoor that we know of, we're also going to have to change our acronym DNRY to "DHNYO"!!!! the nerve of this game department.....

I just don't understand how in this day and age they can't be done within a few days of permit submission cutoff.

Yeah I would like to know what the process is and why it takes so long

In the government I've seen getting a yes or no answer to a simple question take two years. Boggles the mind !

It takes them awhile to figure out the "nephew, brother in law, cousin deals" before the leftover "draw" starts..
