Raffle Tag Poll (Official Results Out)

[PlateauNDN]

i for the first time since i was 12 will not be buying tags of any kind for myself, i bought my sons and also his permit fees which he drew none, butmy son will be huntn and i am taking a kid out named kellan he just past hunters ed and is all jacked up to go huntn, so i figure if my son gets his deer and kellan gets a deer it will be a damn fine year for me. even if i dont get to actually hunt for myself, i would rather watch a young hunter get their animals anyways 

Can't go wrong there.

thank you for the donations.

NOT ONE ticket this year.

looks like I wasted my money again. Brad hasn't called me yet. If he drew moose he will have to change his name and go into hiding because there will be a hanging.

OK, who's holding out on us? Who got drawn?

If people would update their contact info they would know  The WDFW is trying to contact a couple of winners.

Did anybody get close?

The best I did was #13 for Western Elk.

Some of the winners bought a LOT of tickets. I think the Eastern Elk winner bought 2600.

the closest I got was like 300... how do you know how many tickets the winner had bought?

Plug the winning number into the search. Then cut and paste the results into Excel.

I checked again, Eastern Elk winner bought over 2800.

[Bean Counter]

What? They bought 2,800 tags... at $5 a piece? 

[Wea300mag]

2800+ at $6 each.

$16,800 is still less than the Gov tag holder normally pays.
