permit changes
« on: July 09, 2010, 02:17:16 PM »
I talked to the head of special permits for the wdfw today about the new system, probably no changes for 3 years but he did say they are considering making another category. The new category if they decide would be open to those with 10 points or more only, like special elk permits and other game species. They would allocate 25% of the tags given out for the particular unit to those eligible, I like the Idea myself.

buckle up, this one's gonna go big.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I'm telling you they are on the leading edge of how to profit from permit apps, I shouldn't be surprised, but I'm not really in favor of this idea.

I mentioned this in my review this Spring, but they should allow for people to put in for any elk permit. If you draw, then buy the corresponding East or West tag.

It seems to me that if you have 10 points times that by ten and that is how many opportunities you have to draw (100)  It seems the more points you have sooner or later you should draw.  From what I understant 2 points is 2x2= 4 3x3=6 and so on.  If you have 1 point that is all the draw you get is 1.  If I'm wrong say so.  Seems the more points the more chances.  Just gotta have patience I guess and enjoy the hunt you have.  I can't wait for our general season Mulie hunt with the kids.  Missed it last year on a Blues Bull permit.  I just enjoy hunting, don't necessarily have kill a big one, or one at all.  Love watching the kids kill one, those hunts have been some of the best I've ever had.  Just being possitive.

He didn't tell me when the permits will be mailed out, the only thing positive for me this year is my daughter drew for the greenriver water shed for any buck.

As far as patients goes..... I've waited 15 years, I like the idea of a 10 or more tag.

6 years ago I got ten points on a poaching case. Last year I put in for the wenaha with 19 points and didn't get drawn. Drew this year with 20. I was starting to not believe in system.

it all depends on the tag you are drawing for.  If you apply for the really hard to get ones, then you probably will be waiting for a number of years

You are right but it is still a lottery and a guy who is in with 1 point may draw the only tag in a unit whil the guys who are in 196 times strike out. Its all luck still. And 3X3 is 9.  :chuckle:
