changing my elk tag

[jagermiester]

This is is the main reason they don't allow it.  Just imagine how many people might switch to archery or muzzy after they don't draw their rifle tag, let alone east to west or vise-versa.

Yeah I get it. It sucks for me though because my brother cant go now and my Dad just had his hip replaced so now I am left to go by myself. I have been invited to go on another trip here on the West side but I can't so it looks like I am going to take my 7 year old son on a camping trip and stay pretty close to camp. If I kill an elk he can high fiveme and help me pack it out who knows it might be the best trip of my life.

This is exactly why I won't put in for special elk/deer permits ever again.  I work construction and then get the shaft come hunting season if forced to designate that early, because sometimes a man just has to work.  The state used to allow you to do whatever if not drawn but they said "crowding" was the reason they now make you designate. 

From now on I will wait til the last minute before choosing my hunt.........FREEDOM.......but no special permit and to me its totally worth it.  Work because I have to whenever I can and hunt whenever I'm not working because I just have to.
