Just purchased my point, sadly I decided to not hunt this spring, next year I'll have 5 points and am hoping to draw and have a good spring hunt again.

Wish we could just put in for our top choices and our 2nd, 3rd, and 4th choices could be for points.  :)

If I get my 3rd or 4th choice I will need a lot of help :)

You can just put in for 1 unit, and if you don't get drawn then you receive a point.  That's what I always do, if I get drawn it'll be where I know and want to hunt.

I did mine online and it said I can't have point options with a hunt option and made me put in all 4 choices before moving forward. Last year was the same. Wonder if I did something wrong online?

If you apply for a unit you don't need to input the point option.  It is automatic if not drawn.  And you can move forward after putting in one option.

Ah, got it. I just want back through my history and in 2014 I only had one choice. You are right, I made a mistake by trying to put the points option in rather than leaving it alone. Dang it.

Thank you! I should have remember this.

Awesome, thanks! I called and they were able to correct my error, no problem. She did say that I wasn't the first person to have this happen.  :chuckle:

Post by: TLEVIN40 on February 16, 2016, 01:28:13 PM
I have seem to have selected 4 as well, however I would probably only hunt 2, can you decline to take the area drawn in and just take the points?
Title: Re: Spring bear draw results
Post by: HighCountryHunter88 on February 16, 2016, 01:34:45 PM
No, just dont put in for units you will not plan to hunt if drawn!! your taking away someones else s opportunity to draw and hunt!
Title: Re: Spring bear draw results
Post by: TLEVIN40 on February 16, 2016, 02:00:21 PM
I will get it fixed, it is my first time putting in. I was unsure sure how the system works. Why I asked the question.
Title: Re: Spring bear draw results
Post by: jkthomps on February 16, 2016, 04:07:43 PM
It is easy to fix. I called and they fixed it in 3 minutes per the advice above. Don't worry, this happens to the best of us  :chuckle:

Here is the number I called: (360) 902-2464

Have your Wild ID number available.

The person I spoke to said this happens quite a bit. One would think they would include an option on the drop down list to something like "no hunt"... instead, when you try to thorough, and put in the "points only" option for choices 2,3,4, it says you cannot move forward with a hunt pick and point only pick, which leads individuals (including myself) to erroneously thinking you need all four hunt choices.

However, I will admit, I knew better. I went back to my history from 2009 to current, and see I have only ever placed in one hunt.  :sry: It has been a long winter  :dunno:

Just leave the options 2,3,4 blank and it goes through. I am glad everyone here has a ton of knowledge and caught this before the drawing end date showed up.

Good luck everyone!

I just put in for my spring permit so the draw can be run tomorrow. I debated on whether to put in or not, my heart really isn't in it yet this year, but I knew I would regret it if I didn't.

I don't what it is, even though I got a moose, which has always been a dream of mine, last season left a bad taste in my mouth. Maybe it's that I finally got on of my dream animals, I don't know. I just don't seem to have the fire that I usually have by this time of the year. Seeing Selected next to my name could very well change that though.

Still debating if I want to spend the extra $18 or not. With 8 points I'd have decent odds of drawing but really don't have the time or money to spend 2 to 3 weeks hunting on the other side of the state. I wish they still had a permit for Capitol Forest. That'd be a no brainer.

Are you going to be able to get out much with the new family addition? My wife shut me down the last two springs with her pregnancies/babies. 

I am sitting on 5 this year too and have the green light for all spring. Fingers crossed!

If I am not lucky enough to get drawn, I will have time to headout if anyone needs help.

ain't nobody shutting me down (besides wdfw)!  I guess I'm super lucky my wife hardly tells me no.  when my first daughter was born in 07 it was Sept 19th we come home from hospital on the 20th.  3am the morning of the 21st we are both awake a wife gives me the green light to drive over and elk hunt the very last day of the season.  So I packed my gear and off I went.

That is awesome. I am jealous haha. My son was born Sept 24th and I had to miss all big game seasons and waterfowl. My wife is getting better as the kids get older. My youngest daughter is 8 months now, and I won't miss any seasons this year. I hope.

Watch out, I draw this tag with reckless abandon...  I really want to keep 100% success rate on this hunt and whack a 3rd spring bear.

Good idea but I think I need to save up for Wyoming in the fall. If it wasn't for that being my priority, I'd probably do the spring bear for sure.

They called today and got it figured out with Mill Creek. Picked it all up today.

I didn't even apply.  I have the Idaho lifetime license,  and will be hunting a unit that offers reduced bear.  She will have the junior mentored,  so about the same price as applying for several years in WA,  and we can both hunt.   Washingtons  mismanagement of predators makes me so disgusted i can hardly participate anyhow,  although i will kill a fall bear here.   :twocents:

Great.... Another donation to the state... :bash: I better do the multi season thing now before I forget that too...

I wonder how often this happens?  Probably a lot.  What a stupid system.  It should all be one deal make your selections and then pay.  done.   :twocents:

 :yeah:

Or at the very least, if you purchase and forget to apply, your name automatically goes in as a point option.

I agree with baker5150 but I am unwilling to make hay out of it.

If I buy the option, it's up to me to use it.  Same as if I buy a Discover Pass, it is my job to make it visible

I do wish they had you make your selections and pay at the end of selection making.  That is how most normal systems in the world work.

Imagine if you paid for a concert ticket and then went to another website to book your seat and if you didn't do it you didn't get a seat, it wouldn't make any sense.  Why cant WDFW live in the real modern world?

 :yeah:

This was my thought the first time I applied. Kind of a pain in the arse to buy it at one location, then go into another location to actually make your selection, then check another location to see if I drew, and finally one last location to submit my hunt report. I wonder if there are 4 separate offices to administer each of these sites?

So this year you have 2 points.  They never list the current year's points.  When they say 0 you are applying with 1.

Bought my license and application in the nick of time...... Got busy and forgot to apply  :bash:. Guess I'm going for points this year... :bash: :bash: . I turn 59 this month, must be getting old and forgetful....

Or at the very least, if you purchase and forget to apply, your name automatically goes in as a point option.

I called WDFW and spoke with Anita, I confirmed that if you purchase the application and do not submit a hunt option or point only option, you still get the point for the application. It is automatically a point option as soon as you buy the application. If you forget to submit a hunt choice, you get the point. Pretty straight forward...

Also, per the website FAQ:

Do I build up one point for each hunt choice I select on my special permit application?

You earn one point for each application you buy. Whether you submit one hunt choice or four hunt choices, you still earn one point. You can buy one application for each category each year. If you draw a permit, your points in that category return to zero.

Not true at all. I bought an application for my wife and myself 4 years ago and forgot to submit my application, so neither of us was awarded a point. I called WDFW to see why we weren't given our points and their response was if you dont submit, then you don't get a point. Unless they changed it recently, I don't believe that you get a point without actually submitting.

Call them like I did. I would have a hay day with wdfw in the courts if they did not award points to someone who purchased an application and wasn't awarded their point.

I was concerned about some of the posts and called today and confirmed. If you have proof you were not awarded a point, email it to me.
Title: Re: Spring bear draw results
Post by: jkthomps on March 04, 2016, 08:51:21 PM
It is even in the  Big Game Pamphlet. Here are a couple screen shots from my phone. Notice the words, "the purchase of an application" results in a point... no where does it say you must submit an application to get the point.

So, if you "purchase" an app you have a point even if you don't submit for a hunt.

If anyone has a different experience, it is a breach on WDFW's part, and you should get it rectified.

I am just looking out for my fellow outdoorsman. I don't like seeing people taken advantage of.

I am guessing they changed it like I suggested in my last post because they probably received enough complaints from other hunters. Trust me, I spoke to a guy named Cory and I read him the riot act and told him exactly what I thought about WDFW. I might add I haven't drawn a permit since for anything other than a cow tag, so I'm sure I got blacklisted. I can assure you that neither of us were awarded a point, but I'm sure in the hell not going to search for something from 4 years ago to try and prove my case.

Don't get me wrong, I don't know specifics about the past, and I am not trying to be a db. You are probably right regarding the past. I just know what I research for 2014 and 2015. I just want to make sure we are all on the same page.

This would be true. You are correct, technically, you wouldn't even benefit from the current year's purchase until the next year's draw...

And that is only if you purchase an app the next year and put in for a draw.

Hmm, nope.  Ill stick with my ne units.  I got a big old one eyed scarred up boar in 121 that ive been wanting to get in my crosshairs for a few years.  Never even gotten him on tcam in the fall season.  He only seems to make appearances in the spring.  Maybe this year ill draw and make it happen.

So I called the number, pretty sure I dialed correctly, and the woman with the husky voice was very nice. She told me I could come on down and get my "special permit" but it would cost me. Not sure if this is legit have any of you guys had to go to a hotel and pay for your "special permit"?? Seems kind odd for the WDFW don't you think?

Kapowsin for me .
Crowinghen not selected .

Now I can hardly wait for the annual Hancock S____ thread .

For some numbers , Clyde told me that 6 bear came out of Kapowsin last spring season , 5 of them where investigated or are being investigated which sounds like only one was legit . 1 out of a 150 permits is a .75% success rate . I put in for the tag because we are in there scouting all year so I might as well be prepared just in case .

I wait until all my hunters have killed and then I hunt. So far we are 100% kill on my guided spring bear hunts, I intend to keep it that way as long as possible because there is no better marketing tool than that, so I'm not about to worry about myself until my hunters are all filled out.

2 for 2 on spring bear tags there.  There are many on here that know the unit fairly well though.

I have ruined 3 tires in the unit over my 2 seasons there, so I'm pretty good at that.  Broke my jack for the truck too.  I feel undefeated in that category.  I also know of two cabins in the unit on state land...  (well more lean-to ish than cabin)

On a serious note, if you need help I'd be happy to lend a hand, either for the hunt or the haul out.

Nope.  The RadSav luck seems contagious.  Nothing for CL, MLB or D-Loop either.

So if a stranger asks if you know me...act offended and say, "Who that arsewipe?  I would never associate with that guy."  Best to cover your tail just incase there is a WDFW spy wanting to know who else to put on the "RadSav friends Not Selected" list. :chuckle:
D-loop :chuckle:

Del could not make it to our spring bear party so I wanted to make sure he knew we were thinking of him. :chuckle:

Wackmaster, I'm really surprised that Lick Creek and Mtn View were full before Wenaha, but the fact that you chose them ahead of Wenaha as well tells me I'm the odd one that would choose to hunt Wenaha over any other unit. Actually good news for me.

15 less tags in those units combined so it doesn't surprise me that they were full before. The wenha isn't for everyone

Drew Kelly Hill with 6 points. I wonder if I should have applied for Dayton as my first choice. I've never been to either area so I got some learning to do. Good luck to all who drew

I will be at the Cabelas this weekend. Stop by if you want to learn sounds for calling bears. Rick

Check out my bear calls under the Sponsors . Also Check out bear paws bear hunts. He knows Kelly Hill very well. Big pretty bears there.

For those not selected look at reduced bear units in Idaho.  Less than 200.00.  Great way to slight for a future fall hunt too!

Post by: zkhowes on March 11, 2016, 09:38:41 AM
Drew my 3rd choice Kapowsin (Monroe - 1, Skagit - 2). My choices were mostly around proximity so looking into it more.

Rad did not get selected last year and i think the year before for mutli season....so did i...who did i make mad?

How could you possibly have too much going on?  You can apply in 2 minutes online.  You could do it on your cell phone while youre sitting on the can.

Just found my permit in the mailbox.  :whoo:

The only downside is that my best shed spot is still covered in snow, and by the time it melts ill be too busy bear hunting to go looking for paddles.  I can live with that though.

If you give me directions and details to your best shed spot I'll go make sure they get cleaned up while your bear hunting.

You know just to be the helping guy that I am.  :chuckle:

Any guesses on when the snow will have melted off enough to make 49 degrees this year worth while ?

When it stops snowing...most of the good spots will still be getting snow for another few weeks. If I had only one month to see or shoot bears in the Spring, it would be Middle May
