I disagree with the statements about eliminating Youth Moose Tags.  The tags offered to youth applicants are "meat tags".  A meat tag that would be a big deal for a kid, not nearly as big a deal for an adult.  If you get drawn for a meat tag, it doesn't count against you as an OIL anyway, and truthfully, most of us are putting in for bull tags anyway, so I don't think this takes any opportunity away from most of the rest of us.  I think it's a nice thing to offer the kids, and really only takes a few tags out of the meat pool.

A lot a guys apply for cow moose.  I'm one of them.  I almost always put cow moose down as my 4th choice, except the last couple years I put it down as 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.  The only way it really counts against you to get drawn is that you lose your bonus points.  Anyway, I don't feel real strong against having a special youth category..............
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

I am curious, if I put my son in for youth moose permit and he bags one, does that count as his once in a lifetime moose, or would he then be able to apply for/obtain an adult moose permit as well?

Not if the permit drawn is for an antlerless only hunt.  The same applies to all moose permits youth or adult.

No, he won't use up his OIL tag.  There are only 2 "youth" category moose hunts.  They are both antlerless tags, and antlerless tags don't count as OIL.  If he draws a bull tag, then he uses up his OIL status.

So cody just passed Hunters ed. I thought that the youth moose would be applied for the same as regular moose, choose 2 regular and then put youth moose down 3rd and 4th choice? I didn't read anywhere that said they are going to have youth moose points. and regular moose points. I figure he will have 7 points for points when he finishes the youth draws.

Yeah it is a good idea to put in for the bull tags 1 and 2 because if you get lucky and draw first you will pull a bull tag for your kid. We ran into a 11 year old boy up 49 degrees north who had done just that with 2 points. He was packing out a 40 inch bull.  Good luck to your boy.
If it aint broke, dont fix it.

Are you sure that's true?

"You may purchase and submit up to five moose permit applications; one permit application per hunt category, for which you qualify, as listed in the following tables."

I just checked and i can buy multiple moose applications.

OOPS.   :bash:

I just couldn't believe that WDFW wouldn't have multiple moose categories.  More categories = more revenue!
