Since you guys are on the subject of WDFW special permits, I noticed that there is a change in the proceedure for purchasing and submitting elk, deer, goat, sheep and moose permits this year. You can purchase the permit applications between April 20th and June 13th. You can submit those applications between May 15th and June 20th. This means if you wait until June 14th to purchase your permit application ...you are out of luck.
Since most guys purchase and submit on the same day my suggestion is to mark June 13th as the deadline! I took this info off the WDFW web site..if anyone reads it differently, please speak up.
