Youth tag points

[jason4429]

My question is what happens if they don't draw a tag before they get to old to apply for the youth tags?Do they lose their points or do they rollover ?If they do rollover do they get points in all the categories?

[bigtex]

As far as I know they lose the points.

[coyotewallace]

thats the way I understand it too,,,

[jbeaumont21]

They need to pass them on to their parents who eat tag soup every year

Your points are not "lost" but they cannot be used once you turn 16. 

[coyotewallace]

sounds like lost to me

[D-Rock425]

Sounds that way to me too.

[Bob33]

In essence they're lost, unless you find the fountain of youth!

But youth points are only youth points with the new categories. If you want other points, you need to be putting them in for everything with the new system.

That just what I'm going to do...maybe by the time shes my age she can get drawn for a moose

I didn't think about that. Could you apply for the youth and add the other "general draw" as points?

Just go to their WildID page and edit their date of birth to roll it back a year each year until they get drawn

I wonder how long it would take for someone at WDFW to figure it out?

Yep, kids can apply for all the regular permits just like we all do. They don't have to just apply in the youth categories. Put 'em in for everything. That's what the state wants- all of your money!

I went back and looked, I did put him in for everything. And the cost is not bad at all for youth!! that is a bonus

The kid that hunts with us that drew the Palouse tag drew it in an adult permit pool. He drew it with 1 point his first time putting in.
