They should be coming real soon

Hell I am still waiting for my license and tags!  I ordered those 5/21 and still haven't received them.  I called and confirmed they were sent to my PO Box but was told that I meow have to purchase reprints since its past 30 days.  Frustrating to say the least.

Oh man I'm sorry! That's just crazy! You shouldn't have to repay to get your tags if you never received them in the first place!

I got my moose and sheep tags/packets last week. FYI to everyone like myself that has never drawn an oil before, you have to call to Olympia to get your tags. Can not buy at a local retailer

Mine were also in todays mail. Miss the old days when you'd get a postcard instead of a full letter sheet to carry around.

Not that I’ve really been on the edge of my seat waiting for it but my second deer permit came in the mail today also. Looks like I will have to go down and buy my tag now

And If I remember correctly you have to purchase the tags by a certain date or you forfeit the hunt and it goes to the next runner up in the draw.

If you do call, keep us posted.  Then I wouldn't have to make sure to carry the darn thing

i did not know that. Be curious to see if that we’re really the case.

The official answer is that you have to carry the paper copy.  Kinda silly, from what I understand Oregon assigns your tags and license electronically now.

(2) Mountain goat, moose, and bighorn sheep special hunting season permit applications:

(a) Persons who have previously harvested a mountain goat, bighorn sheep ram, an antlered bull moose taken under an "any antlered bull moose" permit, or any moose (whether antlered or not) taken under an "any moose" permit in Washington are ineligible for a special hunting season permit for that category. This lifetime harvest restriction does not apply to individuals who harvested a mountain goat before 1999, raffle or auction hunt authorizations, ewe-only bighorn sheep hunts, or antlerless-only moose hunts.

(b) Applicants for all mountain goat, moose, and/or bighorn sheep special hunting season permits must have either successfully completed hunter education prior to submitting an application, or have a birth date prior to January 1, 1972.

(c) Successful applicants under this section must purchase the appropriate hunting license by the deadline established by the department (a minimum of 15 days). Failure to purchase forfeits the permit to an alternate applicant.

Not really any different than having to carry the paper copy of your license.

I purchased a modern rifle deer tag; however, I did not get drawn for any of the modern rifle hunts.
Can I exchange My modern rifle deer tag for a muzzle loader deer tag?

No you can't. See page 5 in the pamphlet. If you had not applied for special permit hunts, then you could have exchanged your tag.
