Oops

It was originally the 18th and they pushed it to the 21st. I wonder why they pushed it out this year. I haven't noticed that in the past but maybe I just wasn't paying attention...

My guess is they extended it because people were bitching about the paper regs being late.

That makes sense, it didn't cross my mind cause I use the .pdf for about everything these days.

My guess is they saw the low number of applications coming in and decided to extend it to the 21st. Follow the money. This is the year my 14 Bull points will get me a tag. :IBCOOL:

Don't bet your check on it

I also have 14 bull points. I have like 1.5% odds of drawing, but someone has to draw

The meat eater podcast was saying for Montana and Idaho this year they have had record hunting licenses/tag sales and odds were going to be bad this year for drawing things. Just guessing that would be the same across the west.
Maybe they extended the deadline because of covid and staff availability or the sales have been so good they didnt want to stop that revenue stream? :twocents:
I'm guessing draw odds are the same this year as every other if not worse

Heard Steve's walked back a bit from all the hunter recruitment stuff he'd been pushing for so long. Hits closer to home when your own trailheads are crowded, no matter how much money you're making off it. Hunter recruitment only works if you're adding habitat and opportunity, and we certainly aren't doing that. Not by a long shot.

Rocky Mountain Elk Special Tags in Washington are down to 438 this year compared to 508 last year. The 10 year average is 1255 so yes the odds will be down big time this year :chuckle:
