I checked out some sporting goods stores and discovered none of them had experience with multi-season leftovers. Any sporting goods chains that routinely have applicants?Where I live all of them. Last year there was 2 guys at the local store 3-4 hours before the draw.
With that said that was for Elk. Deer you can usually show up the next day and still get one.

Usually close to Aug. 10th. WDFW usually sends out a release on the date.Usually they have sent out an email by now..... it always something :bash:

When I called the WDFW to ask about this, the person I talked to said that they have yet to ever sell out of the multiseason deer tags (though they're getting closer to doing so every year).

Of coarse they are not going to sell out. Why would they when its cash in their hand and they are not the least bit concerned about game management. There could be zero animals and they would still sell tags.No Kidding!

Why not a 2nd or 3rd slot like the raffles. Call and offer requiring an immediate purchase or on to next applicant. Seems simple enough for elk.Or make people pay up front!!! Bam no leftovers!!! Those that dont draw get a refund minus the app fee. Drives me nuts that there is a chance of not getting drawn yet every year there are leftovers because people dont realize the cost or dont buy it because they drew a special permit or whatever other reason. It takes opportunity away from those that do want it and want all the benefits that it gives during the special permit process. Rant over!!

At least you get to purchase the unwanted tags. Roughly 50% of spring bear permits dont even get used at all, and not like we can buy the spring bear permits from guys that dont want them. Honestly you can look up the stats online. About half of spring bear winners dont hunt on the permits a single day.

Elk is a different story. Usually there are less than 100 tags available. This year, there are slightly more. Still will sell out in a matter of seconds.

I agree with the pay up front! I think they should go back to the pay up front on the OIL Permits as well, but that is for a different thread..

Why dont they just give the elk permits to next runner ups from original draw :dunno:
They would have to call hundreds of people, actually make contact, confirm whether they want them etc etc. Know how long that would take? It took them several days just to call the handful of raffle winners and ask them if they wanted the tags.
Post by: Oh Mah on August 14, 2019, 04:37:36 PM
Why dont they just give the elk permits to next runner ups from original draw :dunno:Then what after a percent of them fail to buy?
They should just call and ask randomly the hunters that have the highest points and offer them.I mean really they are the ones who have stood with this draw for years. :twocents:

I do not understand the concept of them being filled in 5 seconds. How can you even enter someone's name into a computer in under 5 seconds, let alone navigate menus, accept money, and all other stuff that goes into buying tags. Is a tag consider filled as soon as they hit a button? With that being said you wont have to compete with me, best of luck.this is why you need someone at the counter who knows what they are doing. They need to get your info in before 10, get to the screen on Wdfw where the option is to pick the tag up and be ready to hit the button. Once they grab a tag it’s in the basket.

With over 2000 left over multiseason tags for deer available, shouldn't be a problem to purchase one.I wish deer would just go over the counter with an 8,000 tag quata.

Clerk at the store I went to said to keep my original tag as they can only take back something they made a mistake on so I have both now. I'll probably just mail my original back to WDFW :dunno:

Didn't ask for my previous tag either, so I don't think she knew what she was doing...
My experience is similar to others here. As much as I am critical of WDFW, most of my licences buying SNAFU's are the problems with the person running the cash register.

Not as hectic as two years ago when purchasing a left over multi season Elk tag. In the heat of the battle of pushing buttons and clicking links the computer issued me TWO multi season Elk tags. WDFW caught right on to that as they called me later that day and asked if I had two tags. Of course I "wasn't sure", but they asked for the license number on my tag, then informed me that if I did have another tag it was cancelled.
