I am pretty confident I am not one of the lucky 128, I think I bought mine right before the deadline. Some of you will be blessed, don't waste it!
There are only so many sunrises left.

Does anybody know how many people actually bought the tag last year, after the 2nd offer?
I personally only know one.  Me.  I was surprised to see the notice I was selected when I was cleaning out my junk mail.

If I’m drawn I’ll buy it. Originally we were supposed to be in North BC for Moose this October but that got canceled due to needing the vax to get into Canada. Now I find myself with more time to hunt Washington. I applied knowing I would most likely only get points.

It sucks but good for you for standing up to the vax! I hope you draw a multi tag!

Kinda strange the reasoning of have a “2nd draw” for elk - so there’s not a pile up of people at the counter do to COVID but multi season deer is still go to the counter and try to get a tag

Demand is much less for the deer tags, that's why.

 :yeah: Multi deer usually lasts a couple of weeks, sometimes don't actually ever sell out.  It's not going to be a mad rush to get em.

Last year multi season deer tags lasted hours. No telling what it will be like this year.

insert eat crow icon!  interesting, didn't know that.  100% online must have helped that.  People must hate standing in line at license dealers enough to not want to deal with that.

I didn't even apply for multi deer last year, but all the years prior I could get them well after they went available.

There’s no doubt the deer will sell out within hours.

Why are the 128 left over multi season elk tags given away in sequential order to the people who got drawn next in line, but the 2800 left over deer tags can be bought online or at an authorized WDFW dealer?? Don’t get it, why wouldn’t it be the same either way for both species?
