Last year I went with the phone call and stayed on the line. Big mistake, lost the call 35 minutes in. Then got in the waiting room down 12,500 and called back to get in the call back line. About 3 hours of panic. I had all but given up, about noon I walked by and wiggled the mouse. The screen came alive and read you are up. Hit buy now at #89 left. About 15 minutes later I got the phone call from IF&G. Not one of the most popular but it works. The elk gods were good this year. Got out of the room at # 751   with less than a 15 minute wait!

If he's further behind than 5490 he didn't. Just got in and it's sold out. Maybe next year for me. :dunno:

Non Resident Disabled Vet elk tags are all gone.  Was able to get a WT deer tag.

Well crap...

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted. If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job. ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

 :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL: Can not believe I dumb lucked a DAV elk and deer tag 2 years in a row.  Think I will stop and get a lotto ticket while I am at it.

All elk & deer DAV tags are sold out. Just picked up a white-tailed deer. Not terribly happy but have a tag for next year. There's always the controlled draws. Good luck to those still waiting.

Picked up an elk tag. $1000 hurts.

I may pickup a deer tag later if anything is laying around
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

I got my tag, but my buddies are still way back in the line. This system is stupid.

if you dont get a tag, can you apply for a controlled hunt, or do you have to have the tag in order to apply?, i know you have to have a license, in order to apply
