Yes. Youth tags are not unit specific is my understanding

No only the unit you have.

Or I should say his tag is good for the unit tag the mentor has.

I figured out that I had to create his own account then buy his lic and tag. But since it doesn't count toward the hunt quota should I save the money and buy it next year?

Did deer tags sell out too or just elk?

My group just bought our deer tags like 5 minutes ago and there were almost 2K elk tags left and several thousand deer tags available.  The usual elk tags are sold out and so are some of the more sought after deer units, but there are still plenty of tags available for guys that are looking for a decent opportunity.  :twocents:

I could not buy my 14 year old the junior mentor tags and license like I did last year. Not sure but it wouldn't let me and due to the timer I just said screw it and paid full price. Be interested in hearing what they have to say about it tomorrow.

I had to create him an account and it automatically recognized that he was a jr hunter and gave seperate jr options. I had to make 2 transactions 1 for me and 1 for him.

Just got a call at 8:25 pm fr ID Licensing. I was successful in buying a DAV White-tail tag today. In fact, I was one of the first tags purchased. I explained the system didn't ask me to pick a unit. The worker told me that was how the DAV/mentor deer tags are working but suggested I double-check with the regional office that handles the unit I will be hunting.

Still sounds a little confusing but the tag is on my ID profile & charges on my CC.

I wonder if Idaho was working the panic buying angle or if it just worked out for them...

I’m planning to call IDF&G tomorrow but I’m curious if anybody here received an email (their regular emails every mth or so) that spoke of a mentoring program other than the jr. program?

I searched their website as well as the most recent big game regs AND the hunter safety site and found nothing outside of their jr. mentoring program.

My 25 yr old son was with me in Idaho for his first  archery elk hunt as my eyes and ears ( his back helped too over our 10.5 mile packout😜) and is now solidly hooked...

I’ve told him in no uncertain terms he needs to get on the ball and get his hunters safety cert ASAP or he might be tagging along like last year...

Any of you have any knowledge you’d like to share that I couldn’t find on my own....would be much appreciated!

Good luck on getting your tags!

I find it off that Idaho doesn't require proof of a mentor before selling the tag. I specifically asked IDFG this question a few years ago to make sure and they confirmed.

So will NR be able to apply for controlled deer and elk?
yes. You'll just have to return your general tag for your CH tag if you draw.

I think Idaho knew exactly what they were doing...20,000 pissed off customers that will be demanding a fair chance at a tag....Idaho will gladly turn into a draw state and begin the downward slope of points and focusing on revenue generation instead of OTC hunting...and now they will even have nonresidential support after this... win win for Idaho...bag of turds for the average Joe

They have the hunting passport which is good for 1 year and a once per lifetime deal but I believe it may be a resident only program as the passport is only like $2 or something like that

I talked to a few buddies from Idaho today, they all said, "wow that was crazy!!! the site is completely different this year!" That tells me most of Idaho was trying to log in as well just to check out the "chaos" this morning which helped further crash the site!!! So aside from all of the non-residents trying to purchase tags, you had all these looky-loo residents bombarding the site just to see whats going on.
Today is also the 1st day residents are allowed to buy licenses for the 2021 seasons including waterfowl, wolf, mountain lion, or coyote hunting right away in January and fishing too. Our licenses expire December 31 so maybe your buddies were just trying to be prepared. I went on to buy my sportsman’s package and ended up in a 30 minute queue
