Montana results?

I wouldn't assume that yet. I believe fwp has to perform the NR general tag draws before doing the permit draw. Basically you have to have a general tag before being considered for the special permits.
 
So Any idea on LE tags I drew the general but don't want it if I don't draw the LE unit. Already drew a Gila elk tag?
 
dont know what is with my account, on the 18th it said successful for nr big game combo then today it said unsuccessful,but had deer combo retained, in the pending spot with the other pending items,now it just says unsuccessful big game combo and the deer combo retained is gone. its a mystery maybe they will screw up and give me a sheep tag.

It said the same thing for me!
 
Kind of surprised they didn't have all the results out on Tuesday. The past few years they have had the general tag and permit results all the same day. The one year they didn't release permit results the same day as the general tags, they released the permit results the day after. Can't figure out a possible reason for no updates today, unless there was an error with the draw process?
 
The deer combos were a draw, more applicants then permits. So those of you that applied for the Big Game Combo but chose to get a refund on the elk part if you didn't draw the LE elk. So, no way are you going to get a deer combo.
 
>I am pending a combo deer
>and LE Elk tag
>My big game combo is showing
>not successful........

Update, I just looked and my LE Elk tag was moved to unsuccessful and my point has been added to my elk point total.

Hopefully I keep my general deer tag ??
 
LAST EDITED ON Apr-20-17 AT 07:22PM (MST)[p]I've lived in a few western states, and right now a resident of MT. I have to say MT is just substandard on how they manage anything at fwp, or conduct the draws. They manage to politics & ranchers vs. healthy game populations. So much potential..... And I'm not a limited quota proponent, just stop hunting bucks through Thanksgiving. In 2017, how hard is it not to conduct a draw without errors or have an accessible webpage. The other states figured it out 4 years ago.
 
I still haven't figured how my results show unsuccessful for elk combo but successful for the permit I put in for for. Make sense to anyone?
 
Page results say their final , retain the deer combo, no LE elk tag (as Gomer Pyle said surprise surprise surprise

Ours say the same thing. Called the FWPS said they won't have it cleared up till next week.
 
Buckshot2,

What's your guess on how they handle our situations? How upset will you be if they tell you that you don't get the permit? I know I won't be very happy.
 
Mine was all over the place for 3 days. They finally got it right on Friday. Unsuccessful for the Limited Elk, retained the deer combo tag.
 
Buckshot2,

Have you or anyone else for that matter heard what they are going to do with those that had unsuccessful combo results but successful permit results? They took my name and number last Friday and said they would call when they had it straightened out but I haven't heard back.
Thanks.

I am in the same group. Unsuccessful for the Big Game Combo & successful for an elk permit. Also my deer permit is still pending.

I spoke w/ MFWP on Monday & they took my name & said I would get a call back this week. I also spoke to an outfitter that called MFWP for me & they said I would receive a letter when it was sorted out. Yesterday I spoke with Mac at MT Outfitter & Guides Assoc & he told me he had just talked with a manager at MFWP(I forget who) & he was told they would make good on the permits & issue elk combo licenses. I understand it is not a large group that had this problem less than 50. I haven't heard back from MFWP but fingers are crossed.
 
Brushbeater,

Thanks for the update. I'm curious if the mistakes are random as far as units go or are they isolated to a certain unit, I put in for archery elk in 798-21. Was this by chance the same unit you applied for?
Thanks.
 
This has been quite the roller coaster ride. I'm worse than a kid waiting for Christmas! I won't believe it until I have the tag in my sweaty little hands!! :eek:
 
jhawksd:

I called MFWP on Friday & spoke to Hank in Licensing. He said there were 67 applications that were kicked out that show unsuccessful for a combination license but successful for an elk permit. He told me definitely we will be issued an elk permit & our combination license. He said that it may take a couple weeks to resolve until they can figure out how to have the system issue our licenses/permits.

I originally applied for the Big Game Combo so I will also get a general deer license. Hank said I was unsuccessful in the deer draw even though my appl still says pending. This is what my results tab looks like today:

Pending
2017 deer permit
- 270-50 was your 1st choice
2017 sheep license
- 422-20 was your 1st choice
Successful
2017 ELK PERMIT
- 620-20 was your 1st choice
Not Successful
2017 GENERAL - BIG GAME COMBO
 
What about sheep and moose results? As a non resident I had 15 for sheep and 14 for moose going into the 2017 draw. Are results of this draw posted on June 13th?

They will be posted sometime around the third week of June. They don't give you the exact date.
 
still haven't gotten my tag, it said I drew on the website, I called Helena and they confirmed I drew and said that tags would be mailed the last week of May. It seems that something is amiss, anyone else in that boat?
 
I think I would contact MT again. My license & tags were issued manually & don't look like the tags others have received. On my drawing page it still says I have a pending deer permit.
