I drew the Blue Mtn. Foothills Late Muzzy tag, the Blue Creek Muzzy tag and a Blue Creek Antlerless tag. So, I called to see if I could surrender two of them and just keep the late tag. I did this thinking it would free those up for others to be awarded. I was sad to find out that while I can get my points back if i surrender those tags, nobody else will draw them. So, I took 3 tags out of the pool and will only be keeping one. Kind of a bummer it goes like that. Wonder how often that happens?

Well it's not the Q-tag I had last year that I had to turn in because of the fire in the Bethel unit, I did draw a anterless elk in the Bumping unit. Hope I can fine some not burned up areas in there. Headed up in July to hopefully get my cameras from last year in the Bethel unit and now do some scouting in the Bumping unit. We used to hunt this unit back a few years ago when it was spike/anterless for archery.

For that season with the limited amount of tags , ya the book says they can doesn’t mean they have to redistribute

For that season with the limited amount of tags , ya the book says they can doesn’t mean they have to redistributeI think Utah (or maybe it’s another state) does something like that. They have a sequence that the draw goes (Ex. Antlerless, Bull, Quality), and once you draw one, you are out of the next pool. I would support that. You could still buy points in all the categories, but would do something to improve draw odds at least a little.
I'll be hoping for one of those Permits that got turned back in. Whidbey second deer for me, but my buddies drew some good one's so it will be a fun season.
