If you don't buy the permit before sold out, do you get your points back?
The person I talked to told me No.
I got my paperwork on Thursday.

More likely, it is just a way to make sure that they maximize revenue by selling out all the tags.

why do you all think this 1st come 1st served method is gonna change anything, there will still be multi season tags left over a month after they go on sale, dont panic there are still a lot of people that put in then say "whoa its $180, i aint buyin that" but those same people will apply again and draw again next year
Warning conspiracy theory to follow!!!!
Ya know, I wonder if thats the case. Talking to everyone I know it seems as if they stacked the draw. Folks who have purchased in the past got drawn. Folks who havent bean drawn in the past still arent drawn. I know its way out there, but maybe they cherry picked folks who have shown they are willing to pay.
Conspiracy theory over. :)

Yes, the way I see it, is the multi-season PERMIT is a permit, not a tag. You also have to buy a license/tag like you normally would. The $180 is additional which lets you hunt all the seasons.
that is correct. you have to buy the normal tag so it really is like a 225.00 deer tag :bash: i think i will buy the deer i drew but next year i will just be putting in for elk which is what i really want. its hard for me to spend 180 to hunt all three seasons when i am 99% sure i will shoot my buck in the late muzzle like i always hunt and do. but i would love to hunt archery, i could care less about modern for deer becaue i am so busy helping my family get there deer and taking care of them with little time for myself but i would have it no other way.

I think there will be major out cry by the 100 extra guys that drew the elk tag and can not get it, plus lose your points. It seems you should only draw the quota and simply add a deadline to buy it. If they don't sell out open it up to first come first serve until all tags are purchased. But of course you are dealing with wdfw who try to complicate everything as much as possible, and this would be a to cost effective and easy method to use.
I like the idea of F&W over drawing just so they don't have to have multiple redraws right up until the opener, but I also agree with you one the "first come first serve" concept on the left over permits. This may be something we need to push with F&W, or at least let the other guys keep their points.

Hmmm... $180 to hunt two additional weapon seasons in Washington... I'm gonna lower the pool to 2599 and put my dough into 'lopes in MT and buying Elk/Deer/Lope points in WY. Someone else can have my tag.. er.. ummm i mean permit..
$140 was expensive enough for what you get out of it... paying over two bills to hunt three seasons in wa is over the top IMO. Afford it? yep... Worth it (to me)? Nope.

I recieved my multi season tags in the mail yesterday. It is a tag. I am supposed to return my modern rifle deer and elk tags so I don't have two :P. I know because it says "tag" and I am supposed to use this to hunt during various seasons. Accompanied with this is a new liscense that says I am a multi season tag holder.
Here is what sucks. . . I bought a deer and elk tag prior to doing the multi season application. Yep, you guessed it, that money is down the drain. Its not much but it is still money, kind of annoying ya know what I mean?

What do you mean it is down the drain? You have to pay for those tags if you want to hunt deer and elk in this state, whether you draw multi-season or not.

Multi season permits are too expensive for me........especially since I don't have a bow yet. But they may be worthwhile for some that have the time to hunt all 3 seasons and already have bow, rifle, and muzzleloader weapons laying around. :twocents:
Post by: buman31 on April 28, 2010, 10:26:01 AM
1. Buy your liscense
2. Apply for Multi Season
3. Get Multi Season and Buy It - or not get drawn and by your respective normal tag you always throwing money away on the normal tags.
Does that make sense. They need to put something in the regs to that effect to avoid confusion! :bash:

Q. How much does the permit cost?
A. The permit is $180.00 for residents and $1,800.00 for non-residents, plus the cost of the original deer or elk license.
Post by: bobcat on April 28, 2010, 10:44:24 AM
It means if you buy your regular archery/muzzy/rifle tag before you apply for the multi tag and you are drawn and decide to purchase the multi you will not get your money back for the regular archery/muzzy/rifle tag you purchased prior. Lesson learned:
1. Buy your liscense
2. Apply for Multi Season
3. Get Multi Season and Buy It - or not get drawn and by your respective normal tag you always throwing money away on the normal tags.
Does that make sense. They need to put something in the regs to that effect to avoid confusion! :bash:
The lesson you need to learn from this is that if you don't want to spend an extra $180 plus the cost of the deer and elk license, then don't apply for the multi-season PERMIT. Everybody pays the same. If you hadn't already paid for the deer/elk license, you would have been charged for it when you paid the $180 for the multi-season PERMIT.

It is a Multi-season PERMIT, not a tag. It is a PERMIT that allows you to use your TAG in multiple seasons such as archery, muzzleloader, and modern. You cannot tag an animal with a PERMIT; you use a TAG. You need a multi-season PERMIT to use the TAG in all seasons.
Please read this: http://wdfw.wa.gov/faq/multi-season_hunting.htm (http://wdfw.wa.gov/faq/multi-season_hunting.htm)
"Multiple-Season Hunting Permits & Tags"
"You cannot tag an animal with a PERMIT" that is true but there is not a seperate permit in this case you do not get a green and white permit in the case of muti season tag. the tag is the permit that says you get to hunt in all 3 seasons, the tag is the only thing you get and severs as a permit in the muti tag draw, not a seperate one that you have to have on you like a bull permit etc.

So what you are saying is that the permit and tag are one? When you harvest an animal, you attach it?
So then if you had previously purchased a TAG, you would have two. That appears to be the problem, since you can only tag one animal.
Post by: carpsniperg2 on April 29, 2010, 11:52:16 AM
as far as the having to tags you are required to send the reg tag that you might have got before you bought back to them or call them and have them void it when you buy the multi tag.

So they ask you to send back the tag you have which is now invalid. So what?
Is it that hard to put it in an enelope and drop it in a mailbox ???
