I got the same letter. Unfortunately, everything says "un selected"

Post by: fishngamereaper on July 25, 2024, 07:25:34 AM: I'd be leary of some of these calls
It doesn't take long for scams to pick up on new trends. Multiple draw issues in different States this year would be an easy one to pick on....

Post by: Karl Blanchard on July 25, 2024, 07:54:54 AM: Not a scam. Lots of people got the same call. Me included. They are just doing their due diligence to ensure everyone is tracking on the possible changes. Except coach, they're just messing with him :chuckle:

Post by: Mfowl on July 25, 2024, 09:06:52 AM: Did you check your special hunt wins vs your special hunt results tab? The wins tab will show you what you have even if the results tab says not selected. I thought I lost my late archery doe tag but turns out I was switched to my second choice. It only shows under the wins tab, the results tab shows not selected across the board.

Post by: Bone collector 13 on July 27, 2024, 10:26:32 PM: I missed a call from the licensing dept (verified via the website) late Friday night. No voicemail, no email, nothing but I received a letter a few weeks ago saying that even though the results were messed up I still did not draw a tag.

Post by: nwwanderer on July 28, 2024, 05:12:52 AM: Hired help, phone calls, letters and tag shuffles, what is the budget for all this fun?

Post by: CarbonHunter on July 28, 2024, 09:22:32 AM: After they told you about the tag did they offer to help you with your student loan debt and back taxes?

Or maybe you wrote the Western Union account number down wrong so your payment wasn’t received on time and they gave the permit to the next person inline?
