Title: Got drawn for multi-season elk!
Post by: Igottanewknee on April 07, 2022, 06:59:25 PM
About 7 years ago! Hopefully this year.
Good luck everyone... after I get drawn.  :chuckle:

That's funny...that was about the last year I drew too! I don't remember much about it except I didn't get to use that tag as much as I wanted and it didn't get filled.

I'm not optimistic that I'll draw it this time around.

Would rather spend the money going out of state than spend the money for a multi.
..
If it was an actual permit, and not an additional fee...
.
Good luck!
.
But I can only afford so many days, and with the *censored* show Archery season has become....
.
Then limited open ml units, and modern seasons...
.
Cheaper to make one trip to a different state and only hunt a week.

I bought one otc about 7 years ago, killed a bull on opening day of archery season. Haven't drawn since nor have I killed another Wa elk since.

It's a good tag when you can consistently put in some time and you can check out some new areas when you're not limited to East or West.

cheaper? what outta state tag is $190? I totally get the crappy hunting in WA as I hunt almost everything outta state these days. pretty much every elk tag these days are near $1,000. I can hunt right out my door with very little fuel cost and pretty much any day of all the seasons offered. Versus driving a long ways and lots in fuel.

I have to agree, if you take advantage of the deer multi tag, you can hunt forever!!  The elk is a bonus for sure, being able to put in for the east tags and hunting west when not drawn is worth the cost to me. I also agree this state is in a downward spiral.

Post by: lastmk8 on April 11, 2022, 10:59:08 AM
What date did multi get drawn last year?

I think generally around the 10th of April over the years.  Usually Thursday, think last year on a Wednesday.  I would think this week if nothing *censored* up with the system.

If you don't submit it automatically enters you in the drawing. If you want points only, you have to go in and select that option.

It’s too late now to submit for points only, the edit button is not working. You may have a chance if you call them asap, but hopefully they are already doing the draw or in the process of it.

 I wasn't going for points only, but I thought it automatically submitted for for the permit just by buying  the app.   That's why I'm confused about it saying not submitted.

This a quote from a email from WDFW on multi-season applications. I am pretty sure you just need to submit for group or points only.


"How does it work?
1. Buy your applications
The first step is to purchase your application now through March 31. You can buy at a license vendor, online at https://www.mywdfw.com, or by calling 360–902–2464. If you are applying as an individual, your application is automatically submitted. You only need to submit if you are applying as a group (maximum of two individuals)."

If you did not submit for the draw, but bought the point....you automatically get the point.  Next year, make sure you put in immediately after buying so you don't have the same problem.  This will be the same process for all draws washington does.  Buy the draw, put in for the draw or points.  If you don't put in for the draw it will automatically give you the points option.

https://www.mywdfw.com/multi-season-special-hunt/

How does it work?

1. Purchase application (12/01/21 through 03/31/22)

You may purchase at a license vendor, online at fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov, or by calling 360-902-2464. Click here for pricing. If you are applying as an individual, your application is automatically submitted. You only need to submit if you are applying as a group (maximum of two individuals).

UPDATE: If you wish to submit as a GROUP or for the POINTS-ONLY option, you may now do so in your WILD account. If you wish to apply as an INDIVIDUAL, no further action is required after purchasing your application. All INDIVIDUAL applications will be automatically submitted prior to the drawing.

You DO NOT need to purchase a deer or elk license and tag before purchasing a Multi-season application. If you win a Multi-season tag but already have your transport tag, refer to the hunting regulations pamphlet for information.

2. Check drawing results

Drawing results will be posted in your WILD account in April. Winners without an email address will be notified by mail.

See hunting regulations for additional information, rules, and program details.

3. Purchase Multi-season deer or elk tag

If selected, you must purchase the corresponding tag prior to Aug. 1, 2022.

Multi-season deer tag: $139.10

Multi-season elk tag: $182.00
Special hunt
Opportunities for multiple species across the state
What is it?

If you are drawn for a special hunt permit, you will obtain access to hunting opportunities that are unavailable during the general hunting season. The special hunt permit is governed by a weighted-point drawing system. You gain one point for every special hunt application you submit. If unsuccessful in the draw category, these points accumulate over the years, increasing the chances of your application being drawn. You may only purchase one application per category, per year.
Benefits

If selected, you will:

    Have access to hunting opportunities that are unavailable during the general hunting season
    Have opportunities to hunt outside of general seasons, increasing your odds for a successful harvest
    Have less competition with fewer hunters in the field during your special hunt
    Accumulate points — increase chances of being drawn

Applications available: 12/01/21 – May 2022 (exact date TBD)
Submit between: April 2022 – May 2022 (exact submission dates TBD)
Resident application fees:

    General special hunt permit: $7.10
    Quality special hunt permit: $13.70
    Youth special hunt permit: $3.80
    Non-resident application fee: $110.50

Example

During the general season you might only have the option to harvest an antlerless elk with the weapon, time frame, and location of your choice. If you are selected for a special hunt permit, you could have access to:

An area that is only accessible to 20 hunters, the ability to harvest any bull regardless of antler size, and a longer hunting season — increasing your chances of harvesting an elk. This is dependent on what application you submit and what area you select.
How does it work?

1. Consult regulations

Decide what species you want to hunt for. Each species has its own categories and application types.

Deer, elk, and turkey: You must purchase a hunting license prior to submitting a special hunt permit application.

Deer and elk: In addition to a hunting license, you must purchase a transport tag (selecting a weapon type and location) before you submit a special hunt permit application.

Mountain goat, moose, or bighorn sheep: You do not need to purchase a hunting license prior to submitting a special hunt permit application for these species. If you are drawn, you will be required to purchase a license before you receive your special hunt permit. For pricing information, click here.

2. Purchase application 12/01/21 – May 2022 (exact date TBD)

You may purchase at a license vendor, online at fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov, or by calling 360-902-2464. Click here for pricing.

If you purchase a special hunt permit application but DO NOT submit it, you will be awarded one point and will not be eligible for the drawing for that season.

3. Submit application April 2022 – May 2022 (exact submission dates TBD)

Submit online through your profile at fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov/#/login or, if you require assistance, by calling 360-902-2464.

4. Check drawing results

Drawing results will be posted in your WILD account in June. Applicants with a valid email will receive an email alert when the results are available.

See hunting regulations for additional information, rules, and program details.

If you did not submit for the draw, but bought the point....you automatically get the point.  Next year, make sure you put in immediately after buying so you don't have the same problem.  This will be the same process for all draws washington does.  Buy the draw, put in for the draw or points.  If you don't put in for the draw it will automatically give you the points option.
That is true for the regular draws, but not the multi-season. You do not have to submit your app if applying solo.

I  agree 100%... but also haven't been drawn for 7 years...makes me wonder.

For Deer or elk? Elk I can understand 7 years when there is only 1000 permits.

I heard they were making most GMU's "Unicorn Only" -- meaning that it has to be a true spike 1X0.  All other elk taken will be subject to a $15 fine.  And the hide, with evidence of sex attached to the sole spike, must be presented to a wildlife official at their offices for inspection the day before the kill.

This is cut and pasted from the WDFW site. It is pretty clear you don't have to submit unless you want points only or put in as a group.

How does it work?
1. Purchase application (12/01/21 through 03/31/22)

You may purchase at a license vendor, online at fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov, or by calling 360-902-2464. Click here for pricing. If you are applying as an individual, your application is automatically submitted. You only need to submit if you are applying as a group (maximum of two individuals).
Title: Re: Got drawn for multi-season elk!
Post by: hunterdan on April 16, 2022, 03:12:39 AM
This is the auto reply to an email I sent asking the question.



"I purchased a Multi-Season application, but it shows as “Unsubmitted” on my account.  Why is that?

If you do not submit your Multi-Season applications, your status will remain listed as “Unsubmitted”.  However, the system will automatically enter you into the drawing on the day it’s conducted.  Once it’s completed, the status of your Multi-Season application will be updated on your account. "

 

At that point, applicants will be notified when the drawing is complete & to log onto their accounts to view their results.

Totally get that, you'd think you could trust the technology but I believe they have to, for lack of better terms, "fact check" the apps to double check the computer system.  It sounds like a bug this time, I'm just surprised, this New system has been in place now for a few years, shouldn't be any bugs anymore.

Couple questions Trophyhunt.
   All purchases are linked to a computer system. So say you purchase your apps for multi season. Does it automatically go into the drawing? If you purchase a point for multi season and choose the point option only does it then automatically take you out of the drawing?

   If both those things automatically happened wouldn't it only take a press of a button and instant results? Just wondering why 2 categories has taken 18 days and no results? Is everything entered manually into a drawing? It seems like there is something to this I am missing.

Couple questions Trophyhunt.
   All purchases are linked to a computer system. So say you purchase your apps for multi season. Does it automatically go into the drawing? If you purchase a point for multi season and choose the point option only does it then automatically take you out of the drawing?

   If both those things automatically happened wouldn't it only take a press of a button and instant results? Just wondering why 2 categories has taken 18 days and no results? Is everything entered manually into a drawing? It seems like there is something to this I am missing.
everyone is in the drawing whether you put in for points or a tag, #Rainier10 @Rainier10 might  remember more than me but they have to check to make sure everyone that bought an app was actually put in the draw, then make sure their points went away.  It is a button fast deal once certain actions are taken, I have to believe there was a complete melt down or hack at this point.

If you follow the stories of Government computer systems you should just expect it to be a mess.  Every time some big software company comes in to implement an expensive overhaul of anything it costs too much, takes too long and never really works right.

I am in IT so I watch these stories with interest as it shows the negligence at work when tax payer money is being spent. I have also worked with many of these large companies that market how they can solve all your problems, usually their own sites do not work right and are not properly integrated across their own company.  I will just say this is what I expect most of the time with any government computer system.   Now with that rant out of the way, I do not blame the mid level workers or blame them, they don't choose these programs or companies that is done at a higher level of corruption  I mean management....

I too hunt out of state. We can't even put in for our special permits  (Moose drawing, I now have 21 pts) and know if we've drawn while other states have already started their drawings. Chances are I would draw a New Mexico or Arizona elk tag for a once in a lifetime hunt and a Moose tag for the same time as well.

Post by: trophyhunt on April 29, 2022, 04:26:40 AM
For the leftover tags that people don’t pick up, they draw from the list of losers and go from there. The average is about 100 to 120 tags that don’t get picked up, so if you’re low on the losers list you’ll probably get a tag and they do not take your points. There is no list to see where you are on the losers, that’s an idea I’ve proposed for a while now.

It is very popular, but in some cases if you draw a special permit and know you won’t utilize the multi season tag, you save 185.00 by not picking it up. The number of left over elk multi tags are very low.  They used to sell out in 15-20 seconds, that’s why they now just ask those first losers.

It’s more prevalent with multi deer because you don’t have to pick a side of the state to apply for permits.

Post by: WapitiTalk1 on April 29, 2022, 07:56:06 AM
Correct me if I'm wrong.  If drawn, you "must" purchase the MS elk tag before you apply for special permits on both sides of the cascades, yes?  I understand you don't have to purchase the MS tag until late July, and, at that time the special permit results will be out but.... unless you possess/have purchased the MS elk tag, you would only be able to apply for permits that match your original license (west side selected weapon, east side selected weapon).. right?     
Title: Re: Got drawn for multi-season elk!
Post by: trophyhunt on April 29, 2022, 08:06:08 AM
Correct, if you want to take advantage of what the multi elk permit does, you’d have to buy it before you apply for permits. But, if you only apply for a certain special permit with a specific weapon, you’d save money just waiting to see if you drew. And if you don’t draw, then after the results come out and you want to hunt big bulls on the west side, you’d buy your multi then.
