Affirmative ;)

OK I'm a bit confused then, This is what it says in the rule book.

Quote
Who may apply: Anyone with the EXCEPTION of those who have harvested a moose in Washington. An individual may only harvest one moose during their lifetime (Waived for hunters who have harvested a moose in an antlerless only hunt, raffle hunt, or auction hunt)

So this leads me to believe that I could put in for and harvest a moose every year in antlerless only areas, Why cant those that have harvested a bull put in for antlerless only areas ??

Because they make the rules and we have to abide by them ;)

Is that all you got ??

So a person could hunt cows year after year and the minute they kill a bull they cannot hunt moose in washington again, that makes no sense !!

Actually they dont even have to kill a bull if they hunt in an any moose hunt and kill a cow they are done !!

Thats correct, unless of course you are a Master Hunter, it seems they have their own set of rules.

So if you put in for a cow permit and draw/kill you loose all your points, But you can still put in to draw a bull tag right? Or if you draw a bull tag and kill a bull your points go back to 0 and you can still put in to draw a cow tag? :dunno:

Okay guys you're going to confuse everyone. Here it is, you apply for 10 years and never draw, you now have 10 points. The next year you decide to put in for a antlerless only hunt and draw, you will loose those points but will still be eligable to apply next year for another antlerless or any moose hunt. If on the other hand you take those 10 points and draw a any moose tag and harvest a bull, you are done for good. If you dont harvest a bull you can again apply for either hunt, you just start over with zero points.

Nope, read it again. It says at the top of the page;

WHO MAY APPLY

Anyone with the EXCEPTION of those who have harvested a moose in
Washington. An individual may only harvest one moose during their lifetime.

(waived for hunters who have harvested a moose in an antlerless only hunt,
master hunter hunts, and raffle and auction hunts). See pages 70-71 for
application instructions.

Apparently that only applies if you get drawn for an antlerless only permit, then you can apply for any other tag, and if you keep getting drawn for antlerless only tags you can keep applying and drawing every year, but as soon as you get an any moose permit and harvest any moose on that permit your done in Washington !!!

Excellent, you got it. Of course you do lose your points when you draw that antlerless tag and have to start over so the odds of getting a tag each year are one in a million at best but you are correct.
