Has anyone just applied for muti deer then just paid the 140.00 without purchasing a general deer tag first?

Don't buy your multi tag until the special permit deer elk draw is over, if you draw your special permit do you really need a multi tag? I wait just to save money.
With a multiseason tag you can apply for multiple weapon choices. I do the same thing as you, but there is that other option too...some people like that route.

You can't save money by only buying the multi season tag for $140 because you still need to buy the deer license to go along with it. What you need to remember is that when you purchase a deer license, you get the tag for free.
Tag comes with the multi season permit too.

You have not paid more by selecting your (free) deer tag when purchasing a license, but you create extra work to exchange it later for a multiseason pemit and tag if you go that route.so I have been doing it right?I think I was second guessing myself as I spend so much on this state already.You can't save money by only buying the multi season tag for $140 because you still need to buy the deer license to go along with it.

I tried to exchange my general tag for a multi season tag last year and they wouldn't let me do it because they closed the main office 3 hours early to start the long weekend. I told the lady at the main office reception that I was going archery hunting with my modern tag bc they wanted to shut it down early to go for umbrella drinks... I got my multi tag 20 minutes later. lol what a pain

Same sort of thing happened to me. I called Olympia to complain and was allowed to buy mine late.

:yeah: I did it once. Pain in the butt.

It's actually not that difficult. I haven't done it for the multi season tag, but I did exchange an archery deer tag for modern firearm, and it's the same process. You just need to go to a license dealer Monday through Friday, between 8:00 and about 4:00. The dealer has to call the WDFW in Olympia so your current tag can be deleted from the system, and only then will the license dealer be able to sell you your new multi-season tag. Also make sure you have the tag with you, since that needs to be turned in when they issue the new tag.If I recall you also need to do that before your current tag's season starts? Should not be an issue if paying attention to draw results, but just in case.. So don't wait until Sept 10th to try and turn your archery tag in to get your multiseason, you may end up paying for both...
