RE: Draw
Cant believe no D9 as a 3rd choice. I have always been able to get it as a 3rd. Man this sucks. Now either getting a D8 or AO tag. Almost laugh at myself with the luck I have

Yeah it wasn?t a glitch I seriously didn't draw a d9 tag as my third choice couldn't believe it ! I haven't ever had a issue with getting a d9 tag must be more people hunting and applying. I couldn't help but laugh, oh well.
Now I will learn a new area I guess, so I got a d8 tag.... know anything about d8 ? Haha

What are you goofy rod you know people that are first alternates get tags ocasinaly, In the first place it's not a matter of turning the tag back in it's a matter of the person drawing not paying for the tag because they have about a month to decide if they want it or not!

I was the 1st alternate on a Klamath bull tag in 2013. I sent my paperwork in and never got a call but there were only seven tags or so.
Last year I drew a Marbles/Clipper sheep tag and then broke my ankle in November a month before the hunt. My surgeon told me I wouldn't be walking for 12 weeks. I had already bought the tag before my accident and seriously considered turning the tag back in. The day after my surgery I contacted CDFW to see what options I had. I was told I could turn the tag back in anytime before the hunt start date and get my points (max) back and gain another point as if I had not drawn but would have to eat the $408.50 tag fee. I figured I would never draw the tag again in my lifetime if I turned it back in as even with max points the odds of drawing are less than 1/2%. After discussing it with my outfitter, he told me he there were a few places not in the wilderness areas that generally held rams and thought he could get me on a legal ram even if I was on crutches so I kept the tag. So last year a sheep tag almost went to an alternate for medical reasons.
This year, I beat the 10% or so max point drawing odds and drew a Lassen 1st period antelope tag and hopefully won't have any reason whatsoever to turn it in!

RE: Draw
Years back I was a #1 alternate for a goat tag, sent in the paper work, never got the word. Two years ago, I was a number 7 alternate for Likely tables goat, didn't even bother to send in,.. then got a call from d.f.g,..and got a tag, so think positive.
