Yeah, after I cash out this time around Im out. I don't need to contribute to the clown show any longer than I have too.

I'm with you, I bet they lose a lot of hunters this way.

There has to be a general hunt or they would lose way too much revenue. They cant make you purchase a license just to put in for a draw that you may not get.

Because of Washington's effort to enhance their revenue by changing the application format and potentially further limiting hunting opportunities, more folks will be motivated to apply in our neighboring states, which will in turn help states like Idaho, Montana, Oregon, etc. in their own revenue goals.

Im going to move to Idaho long enough to establish residency and buy a lifetime license and then move home. I got enough money and time to make it happen.

If you are young you would be better off hunting a different state and saving your Washington hunting money, after 15 years or so buy the Auction tag once, hunt a real "quality" hunt and be done. I cant believe they are going to call a general buck tag for a legal 3 point a "quality" hunt simply because it has antlers of any size on its head.

I urge you all to take a stand here and not buy your permit applications!  Why wait until you draw and then quit?  You are just feeding the beast!  Why would you keep giving them your money for another 5-10yrs or how ever long it takes till you draw?  Just stop now and take a stand!
