Shhhhh let it be a surpriseWe taking bets on how fast their site crashes tomorrow? Over under on 12 minutes?
love seeing this. about time this state stopped being the catch all for NR tags.43k and some change..then clicked the box with an X..see ya Idaho. The old days of buying general OTC a couple days before the hunt.
that would build more revenue as well. make an application fee for each species you want a chance at buying a tag for. great idea!Buddy is at 38,000. What a joke. Just do all NR as a draw. What’s the difference anyway. At least with a draw you don’t force a guy to take off work to get randomly placed in a “waiting room” that has over 30k already.
Problem now is folks that get in early don’t see their precious tag so they just grab any unit, and all are sold out asap. With so many better ways to do it this is just plain sad.
It's like the Nevada FCFS system.......it still needs a few tweaks.Why aren't people freaking out over the fact that people in the know are gaming the system using multiple devices/browsers? There's no way in hell anyone should be able to have more than one chance at a place in line.
I would be ok with that, I have not been able to get a general archery elk tag in 5 years now where you could get them in April or May before. The top general tags are like sheep tags now with the current system, three units were gone by the time 600 people made it through the online checkout yesterday. What was there 60k browsers - not people - and after 600 three units were gone. Sheep odds of getting that low a number. License fee at $185 is high enough however. Do not make people that want to shoot birds pay more than that. Make the elk tag an even 1k or so deer $500 that will make up some of the money.Idaho Fish & NO GAME needs to stop this Horse Sh-T & reduce NR tags to NO more than 5000 tags combined, put them all in a NR ONLY draw pool .. Charge $20 application fees, raise the price of license & tag fees a couple hundred bucks .Raise the Resident license & tags fees to compensate for the SO called lost revenue !!!!
Ain't no birds in Idaho......Do not make people that want to shoot birds pay more than that.
Only if you’re successful!You need tags to hunt in Idaho?
I didn’t have to buy a license until I already had my tag in the cart?——-SSTalked to a guy that flew in from Cali to buy tags. Said atleast 25 others were on his flight doing the same thing. 38K people had to purchase a $185 license for a chance at getting a tag. That's good revenue for Idaho...
The pioneer zone archery elk sold out in 21 minutes...
You can buy your license with your tags, 99% of people do. I buy for my nonres buddies, and I prefer they already have their license prior to the sale, but unless you are on auto-renew, it is very difficult to get. The new year sales begin at 12 AM mountain time on December 1, so you have to login and purchase sometime between then when the website begins the pre-sale waiting room.Talked to a guy that flew in from Cali to buy tags.
