@ Fishmaker57 @ Connorw, Did you guys ( or anybody else with sequential numbers ) call Montana ? Curious to hear what they told you ?

Can you be contacted in October?
Post by: Karl Blanchard on July 22, 2020, 02:59:24 PM
So when do people usually start getting contacted? August September?you can be contacted up until the last day of the season. As a tag is returned it is then offered up to next in line.
Can you be contacted in October?

The Alternate’s List has been updated to correct a technical error with the initial posting of the list. The error was that the original list displayed the order that customers signed up instead of the randomized ordered list that was intended and required. The error occurred as a result of a brittle and antiquated licensing system. A new licensing system is underway and is slated to be operational for the 2022 license year. FWP apologizes for the confusion this has caused.

My buddy’s number last year was in the 800’s - got his tag in early Octoberthat doesnt mean there was 800 tags. That just means the tags made it into the 800's. Remember, you don't have to say yes to tag. Lots of people turn them down, especially that late into the year.

Last year I was 698 got the call a couple weeks after 4th of July , another buddy was 1070 ( or something like that ) he also got a call . Year before hunting partner was 298 got the call 4 days before Thanksgiving.

Post by: huntandjeep on August 04, 2020, 07:42:53 PM
I was told the queue number that's posted in your Montana licensing account reduces as people below you either 'pass' or buy a license when offered one. Is this how it worked in the past?In years past as they update the system yes your number changed . Last year I never got an email , just a phone call , asking if I wanted a tag .

I have not heard anything, and I am unchanged at #239. Any Hunt-Wa members with a lower number have status?
Ill be sure to post if/when I see anything to help others gauge the timing.
With the economy/job issues and Mt alt list debacle, hard to think there won't be a lot of licenses returned and people passing on the alt tag call...

You all let everyone know what your list number is, but what are you trying to buy...there are three tags that could be available, the deer combo, big game combo and elk combo , I am guessing most folks want the deer, then big game, lastly elk combo....Guess you’re right there.
