First year for me after three years putting in. Pretty sad hearing about people getting drawn and not wanting to buy it. Dont put in if your not gonna buy someone else will
A lot of people put in for it and then can't afford the $180 tag. For deer, it doesn't matter anyway. Everyone that applies gets drawn with tags left over so, it's not like they're taking an opportunity from someone by being drawn and not buying

If you applied for the multi season deer tag, there is NO WAY you didn't get drawn. There are more tags available than applicants.

I would half to respectfully disagree not everyone is drawn I have three friends again this year that didnt draw and can afford the tags. Also the last two years I didnt draw if you cant afford the tag how you gonna pay for the trip.cant afford the tag dont put in just sayin.When you purchase the special permit you are automatically in the pool, but it's worth while to double check online to insure hat it was transmitted properly. But, yeah every one that puts in will be drawn for the MS Deer, not Elk! Someone is doing something wrong. Good luck next year!

Anyway, I wasn't sure about the regular submittal or the points thing, so I left it alone expecting to come back later to figure it out. Well, I forgot about it, and today I got the letter saying that I got drawn for it. So...it looks like I got it with just buying the application and not even really submitting it. Sheesh....I still can't figure out all the WDFW hoops. :dunno:

I don't think they plan on selling anywhere near 8500 tags. They would probably be happy with selling half that many.
