I'm not the ?Gotta be the first to know? guy so just wondering when is the likely draw results day??

Nevada was out a couple of days before I checked, had Kali friends bragging on Facebook about their California tags, so I checked.

My choices are longshots so it's not like i?m Holding my breath, but a tag would be a nice surprise.
 
buddy of mine called IDFG friday and they told them that the hope was to have results up by friday the 21st
 
I'd say could be this week or next. For OIL tags this year they actually sent emails right when results were posted saying if you drew or not so you didn't even have to look.
 
My guess is late this week as well. Just my guess.

Unlike some I still love having hope, but either way it will all be over soon enough. Hopefully I hear about my WY antelope on Thur and then ID on Fri and spend weekend planning....
 
I went back into archives and prior to the "new vendor" fiasco of last year, the draws were in the last full week of June the previous few years. So I may be a little optimistic in my end of this week call, but I'm going to stick with it.

Tick tock, tick tock,....
 
Thanks for the replies, and educated guesses.

The last week of June i?ll be off work so I probably won't have time to check.

It's my ?firewood cutting week.?

But with 1%, 3%, 1% chances of drawing, might be better I don't check.

Thanks again.
 
They used to always post up this week, my money's on tomorrow as well. Feel like they got their crap back together this year....lets do this...

I know it never did happen on Friday, but remember that part of the state is in the pacific time zone and even then it doesn't matter, I think it was 2 or 3 years ago they released the trophy species results at 7:30 mountain time on a Tuesday or Wednesday night

North of Riggins to the Canadian line.
 
The ones pushing the button is not IF&G it is a contractor and they don't work 8-5 usually. Private sector works all kind of hours. It may take an approval from F&G but I bet it could happen after hours if and when it is ready.

Today I called to get the standard answer of by July 10th. When I questioned it I got transferred. The new Lady said the same and I said come on there has to be some rumors. She said she heard they were trying for this week.


Still checking every hour or so. :)

I know but I think he was referring to Boise.

Sometime today after noon I lost the ability to purchase a deer tag. All my family still has the option to purchase deer tags. I put in for a deer tag with nearly 100% odds of drawing...a glitch or an indication something is happening???

I have the same thing on my account idahoelk, I have the option to purchase an elk tag for a or b but nothing for deer.
 
you have to click on the game tags to see the deer and etc and you have to click on elk A or B to see elk tags. Everyone I know can see all of them.
 
Did you happen to be using your phone when you checked? I tried and at first I thought I was in your same situation, then I closed the drop down menu (?tags?) and it was covering the deer options. The menu just happens to cover boxs for the deer tags exactly and you would never know they were still there unless you close the menu. Good luck, I hope you drew something good.

I definitely wasn?t referring to Boise, I'm just saying, there are some F&G offices in the pacific time zone

I too had this happen..I could choose between Elk A or B, or any other tags but regular deer and whitetail only tags were not an option on the list. I logged back in later in the day and there they were again. On a desktop computer, too.
 
My guess is that the ones answering the phone have nothing to do with when the draw is finished.

I went into my account and mine doesn't show an option to choose an A or B tag. It just shows Adult Elk Receipt and Adult Deer Receipt as options. Trying to not get my hopes up but it is hard to not think that might a sign that I drew a tag. Can they just release results already! I'm dying over here! haha

This is true. I'd also guess they have zero clue when the draw will be out either... So why not let them do whatever their job is since asking them is about it is pretty nonsensical.
 
I'm getting sick of this BS. Been putting in for all 4 species the last 11 years and have only drawn a cow elk and doe antelope tag. The buck tag I put in for is 20% odds and have never gotten it. Fish and game hates me.

Awesome! Big congrats!! My father in law put in for the early general 45 tag and struck out.
