It might be possible to turn down the antlerless moose permit if that were to happen, so it could go to an alternate. Would be a shame to waste it.Do you know if turning down the antlerless permit would allow an individual to keep their points?

I would think so, if the WDFW were to allow it to happen. I don't know why they wouldn't. But it'll probably never happen.

Don't worry about it. The odds of it happening are worse than 1 in 10000. Here's what to do if it happens to you: go buy $1,000 worth of lottery tickets.
:yeah:
You would have better odds of being struck by lightning

20 points and don't think that it will ever happenLast year 9 of 331 applications with 20 points were drawn.

Hey Bob is there information like that for the youth tags that you know of?

Wouldn't matter any ways. If you were successful on your "any moose tag" you would not be allowed to draw an antlerless tag in the future. So really you'd be better off turning in the "any moose" tag if you had that kind of luck.

Only one moose may be taken per hunter during the hunting season.
Any moose category: Anyone, except those who have previously harvested a moose in WA under an "Any Moose" permit. An individual may only harvest one moose under the "Any Moose" category during his/her lifetime.
Antlerless Only Category: Anyone may apply, every year, regardless of prior harvest(s).
The way this reads is that anyone can harvest multiple cows over their lifetime but only one under the Any Moose permit and only one moose per year.

:yeah: This is correct
Quite a few folks had the same belief as rackattack (self included). I learned last year that a person can indeed apply, get drawn, and shoot multiple antlerless moose in their lifetime. Because of the bad wording layout in 2015 regs., I lobbied WDFW to change the "Who may apply" wording for moose, sheep & goat in the 2016 regulations, which in fact they did, using my authored language and layout.
