Multi season permits

[Skyvalhunter]

Anyone applying?

[WapitiTalk1]

Yes sir, I'll be applying for both elk and deer.  Thanks for the reminder 

[Skyvalhunter]

That's good to hear. I won't be partaking this year, money's going out of state.

[D-Rock425]

I should draw deer this year.   I've not drawn the past two years.

[jstone]

Spending my extra money for Montana. If I don’t draw then going to Idaho

[grundy53]

Yup. I'm in for both. Multi season gives me more flexibility to work around my out of state hunts.

I applied for elk. My girlfriend does archery, I usually go muzzleloader and my boys have rifle tags. Figured I might as well.

Why in the *expletive* do I have to pay a dealer fee when I'm buying it off of your site WDFW!

Somebody's got to pay for website.

[N7XW]

I applied for deer.

[cougforester]

In for both. Deer with zero, drew last year, elk with 3.

I can't really say I like the new website but it might take getting used to

Ahhh...getting skunked in 3 weapon seasons is so much more fulfilling than the simple single season skunk!

Got our hunting, fishing licenses, discover pass and special apps purchased and submitted last night for the whole family(me, wife and two daughters).  One daughter is 16 now so she is an adult in the states mind.  I also purchased my multiseason elk permit that I drew by being a hunter ed instructor.

That cost me $1,328. 

Hopefully some more of us draw the multiseason tags so I can give WDFW a few more bucks.  I'm thinking with a couple of multiseason permits and a OIL tag I have a shot at getting my total over $2,000.

[jstone]

You over the edge.!!

[Rainier10]

You know what they say?  If you're not living on the edge you are taking up too much room.

[Bullmoose]

When will the draw be

[Rainier10]

My guess is the third week in April right around the time the commission is approving the new hunting regs and fees.

[BDildine]

Me and wife are in, have no illusions of winning, but why not, wasted $14 on worse things

[trophyhunt]

7 points for elk, 1 for deer.  I absolutely love the multi elk tag!

You have a decent chance of drawing both this year.  Good luck.

[WapitiTalk1]

I was actually gonna ask that. From what you folks know, what is the seemingly average points accumulated to draw MS elk? 

[jstone]

Don’t hate me.!!! But, I had it last year with 3 points.

[trophyhunt]

I feel somewhat confident but I know a guy who has never drawn, he has 10 points this year.

[WSU]

I know a few people that have never drawn.

[grundy53]

I drew it the first year so that was 1 point. Then drew it again 4 or 5 years ago I think with 4 points.

Ya I’m one of those guys, I’ll have 11 points for elk, never have drawn it.

Geezus, there is no justice in this state  .  Good luck this year tho. 

[tkupferer]

I put in for deer and elk last year and got my multi season deer tag, I didn't get selected for elk.  The first day of archery deer I got a nice fat whitetail buck.  I just couldn't pass him up six pointer really good eating.

[Moe the Sleaze]

Rainier10, forgive me if I'm missing something, but how did you submit the apps if the hunts aren't even announced yet?

[Rainier10]

It would only let me submit the apps for multiseason deer and elk.  I bought the apps for elk, deer, antlerless, moose, goat, sheep, ewe yadda yadda yadda and will submit those in May.

[polishstunner]

The one year I drew it, didnt need it because I got drawn for quality elk. 5 yrs ago with 5 pts....
I seem to draw deer every year. I seem to buy it if Indont draw a buck or quality deer tag. Rifle hunting without a permit is not much fun. Archery deer is really fun!

[Pete112288]

I put in for deer this year. First year in the last 7 that I have. I put in for elk for points every year. I will probably start putting in for elk next year for the actual draw. Will have 9 points by then and finally have a chance to put the time into it to take advantage of it if I were actually to be drawn.

Does anyone have a guess at when we will see the results of the multiseason draw?
I have been out of the game for them for so long that I dont know when they tend to publish the draw results for them.

[Skyvalhunter]

Which area will you be hunting?

[D-Rock425]

I haven't drawn deer tha past 2 years.  Last year I bought a left over deer permit.

[Jpmiller]

I haven't drawn deer tha past 2 years.  Last year I bought a left over deer permit.

And here I thought I was the only guy who couldn't draw the deer tag.

[greenhead_killer]

I drew every year the first 6/7 when it started. The last 4/5 years it seems to be every other year now. Can always buy otc for deer when they go on sale. Always extras

More and more hunters are going to not be drawn since they implemented the rule to buy the app or you can't buy the left over.Still left overs in the end  so this is no doubt absolute proof on where this states mind is as far as money and hunters are. 

[Oh Mah]

Ill go off trail cam pictures and videos before i go off anything else on whether to buy or not.I will put in every year regardless. 

[Twispriver]

I'd be in favor of making us front the money and giving refunds if you didn't draw like most western states do. Same with the OIL permits.

[konradcountry]

People at my local gun store will camp the extra elk permits. Like get there early with a chair and wait until the counter opens. I think there are always a couple from people that draw but decide to not do it. Last year the system crashed when it first opened.

I don't think the deer normally sell out. Heck I wouldn't be surprised if the state just prints more if needed.

No kidding.  It would greatly increased odds on the multi-season tags.
