It's the Kapowsin tag. He's not sure what season, but I'm pretty sure he's going to choose muzzleloader.

tough one to choose, muzzy would probably be my first choice also. But hard not to pick the rifle when you have the place to yourself (basicly) and the gates opened up. It would be a nice delemma to have, I just talked to clyde and he hasn't heard that they drew the tags? Your friend isn't pulling an old April fools on us is he?????

I don't think so. Unless someone is pulling it on him. He was pretty jacked up when I talked to him.

If you pull that and the multi season do you get to hunt all three seasons?

Not in the past, they usually make you pick one weapon only. I can't get on their website for some reason, anyone else have the same problem? I sure hope for my selfish reasons they haven't drawn yet.

I think the draw date gets bumped up if they sell out before June first. Which they did a couple weeks ago.

This isn't a BS thread.  I know the guy, he was still shaking when he called me, I was the first guy he was able to get a hold of.  They haven't posted the winners yet, I assume that's what they are doing first.  They call the winners to make sure they actually want to hunt elk, then if they don't, I assume they go on to the next guy/gal on the list. 

He made it facebook official about an hour ago, so you know it's real :)  He's on cloud nine right now, and to be honest, he's a hell of a guy and deserves this tag.

I got off the phone about an hour ago with Clyde the security person for hancock, and it's official! The last person that drew an elk permit was notified today. Damn, I was hoping people were pulling our legs. He also said the web site is getting a new server and that is why we can't get on, the name's of the lucky few should be posted by this weekend.  Good luck to those lucky one's that drew.

I tried to tell you guys ;)  I'm hoping I'll get to tag along for one day during the hunt, and I'll try and keep everyone posted on the progress from the third person.  Would be nice if they let more then one guy go with you for your hunt.  You need a spotter AND someone to film!

If I was him I would buy a camping permit and spend as much time as possible scouting, the only way I would have bought one of their overpriced camping permits was if I drew that elk permit.
