Back door is open. I got selected.
-
Not Selected
-
I'll be DAMNED......not selected again. LOL I thought for sure with no vacation and having max points.
-
Not selected. Damn!
-
0 for 2 here
-
I'm at 5 points now. I think I'll be bear hunting next spring. If I decide to burn the points.
-
How do you check?
-
Not Selected......Weird!
-
Oh well, 6 points for next year..... :bash: :bash:

I love that pit in my stomach as I type in my wild id, I always hope for the best but realistically expect the worst,,,,,,,, can't believe no disappointment this time as I was shown as selected!
-
Do you know what you drew or did you apply for more than one?
-
Don't get too confident Bobcat, I can't seem to draw with all those points.....
too bad we don't all complain a bunch, then they make 5 or six more hunting categories and then I get to use my points in all of them..(snicker snicker.....)
-
Dodged a bullet. I didnt want to get drawn :)
-
I drew Kapowsin, my first and only choice. Never got a bear before, here's hoping 2010 is my year!

thanks bobcat
-
did not get drawn no surprise though first time putting in. But my fiance got drawn, it was also her first time putting in. Now we just have to try and find out where she was drawn for.
-
Mine says selected :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL: then again I shouldn't get to excited until it's in my hand. :brew:
-
Not selected... First of many to come I'm sure...next up, Wyoming deer results?
-
Don't get too confident Bobcat, I can't seem to draw with all those points.....
I'm guessing you apply for the eastside units that have fewer permits than the westside units. I think the units over here should be a fairly easy draw with 5 points.
too bad we don't all complain a bunch, then they make 5 or six more hunting categories and then I get to use my points in all of them..(snicker snicker.....)
I wouldn't put it past 'em. Youth bear, Senior bear, Disabled bear, Master Hunter, black color phase, brown color phase, cinnamon color phase, blond color phase, 2nd bear tag, etc.... :rolleyes: :bash:
-
WOW! I have a Monroe tag. Wasn't expecting that with 2 points..
-

no bears in monroe... :rolleyes: :chuckle:
-
How are you seeing the hunt you were drawn for being me and the old ladys first year we both put in for 4 hunts each. Is there a different link for seeing the hunt you were drawn 4?
-
All you know now is if you were selected. These are not the official results and they can change. You'll have to wait for the official results to be posted to know what you drew.
-
Dam the bad luck! now we will have to wait another week to find that out. :bash:
-

I'll take one tag for "disabled bear" please (the ones' that aren't disabled are too hard to hunt)... :chuckle: :chuckle:
-
I knew somebody would comment on that. :chuckle:
-
:bash:
-
Nothing here......didn't want to mess the streak up anyway.... 39 points straight without drawing a tag!! wahooo!! :chuckle:
-

-
No luck for me. 3 points and counting...
-
First year for spring bear and drew Sherman or Kapowsin. Lucky I suppose
-
no permit for me but my wife drew Lick Creek. She had 3 points. I'm thinkin this baby is good luck or something a buck and a doe last year and now a spring bear tag. I'm thinking I should just keep her bare foot and pregnant all the time! :chuckle:
-
Selected!!!!!! :IBCOOL: but how do i know for witch hunt choice. it just said Selected.
-
you won't know until they post the official results. I know my wife drew lick creek because that is the only hunt we applied for.

ok thanks

Selected!!!

Two questions:
1. I understand the concept behind the points and the "mulitplier", i.e. 2 points = 4 cards in the barrel, 4 points = 16 cards in the barrel, etc. Going by this methodology, does that mean that my one point from last year = :bs:
2. What is max points? Are there only so many point you can accrue before WDFW says: YOU = EPIC FAIL?

Lots of people draw with one point all the time so, no, it doesn't equal bs. And if you had one point from last year and applied this year then you actually had two points for this years draw.
There is not a F&W cap on points. Max points means they have been putting in since the begining of the points system and haven't been drawn. Max is like 15 (+/-1).

Yes, I'm going Bear hunting this spring!
-
Yes, I'm going Bear hunting this spring!
So are a lot of people....but are you going as a sidekick or superhero? lol
-
Looks like I'm waiting 5 more months to hunt bears.
-
Just adding to what billy said, there is really no such thing as "max points." People who have been building up points since the first year of the point system (1996) say they have max points. But there are people out there with 25 points, or more, because they've turned in poachers, and that will get you 10 points.
-
Yes, I'm going Bear hunting this spring!
Go get em Michelle!

My mom dad and brother all drew tags :) busy spring for me!! Blues here we come wooohoooo :IBCOOL: :chuckle: :IBCOOL:

:ass: here is to WDFW again I have not been drawn for any animals I have ever put in for in this state, I have been here 3 years. :bash:
-
:ass: here is to WDFW again I have not been drawn for any animals I have ever put in for in this state, I have been here 3 years. :bash:
That's why there's a general season. Three years isn't a very long time to go without drawing a special permit.
-
:ass: here is to WDFW again I have not been drawn for any animals I have ever put in for in this state, I have been here 3 years. :bash:
uh yeah, 3 years? haha! i been puttin in for 10 years for most big game tags. i had max points for bear, which was 5. i just drew my first permit in this state, a spring bear tag. i think im in the minority, but you got a while to wait i think....
-
sorry wacker.......inbox is freshly trimmed.
NE, guys.....this is the year you have been waitng for. th last two e have really only had a couple weeks of the seaon that allowed full access, this year with the reduced pack, there will be more terrain available, more vegitation and.......more bears. don't shoot a dink!

Makes me nervous that maybe something SCREWED UP and they will do a redraw.
-
What do you mean by "no show?" Are you saying when you look at your history it doesn't show that you submitted an application for spring bear?
The email reply you received saying that you won't hear from them for 5 days seems to be pretty standard. And the results we are seeing very well could change. There has not been any official results posted yet.
-
Well if the results stay this way it shows me selected for Kapowsin. I guess I'm going spring bear huntin finally woo hoo!
-
Are you saying when you look at your history it doesn't show that you submitted an application for spring bear?
yes exactly...but i dont have the printout of the successfull application WITH me here so dont have the transaction number.
