Idaho Non-Resident Tag Sale

[Wrench]

Just talked to my buddy who is DAV about this. It doesn't add up.

In person isn't in que.....gotta be present to win.

I have been assigned number 43583. Random apparently. Not optimistic.

I had #614 when I got in there want much left. I couldnt believe it. The areas I wanted there was about 1200 tags. The system is a joke

Now, if a few of you guys could turn some whitetail tags back in, that would be great!

Some of the same issues as the last few years that others have commented on. I will say this about online tags, the on line system was a lot faster this year and it did not kick me out and make me start over line like I have had to when trying to use the online system to purchase tags in the past. I had a 17500 number at 10AM and was done with tags ordered and paid for right at 11:30 AM. No glitches, the system moved a along pretty good for a change. I usually just drive over from WA state since, I don't live that far away. I was not feeling real well today and decided to try the on line system. It worked for me.

I too would like know how all the DAV deer and elk tags go so fast. It does not seem quite right to me.

Lots of veterans like to hunt and none of them get out without a disability rating.

Talked with a friend at F&G last night. He said people had been waiting at his office since Sunday and in Salmon they had been waiting since LAST Wednesday. Outside the door. Zero degree lows.

That’s dedication…

First time going through the process, got in line late 52k or something, when I finally got through the queue nothing left. Refreshed the page 10 min later and had tags I wanted available and purchased.

Same here, 46280 and hunt partner 4900. When his number hit our first choice Salmon B was gone. Our back up plan based on my number was Middle Fork. By time my number hit, like you all gone. Kept refreshing and it came up and I was to slow and it was gone. 5 mins later it showed up again and I got it. No deer tag, but at least I will have somewhere to go.

Wow, that's crazy. Wonder what's going on there? The tags can't be transferred except in very limited familial circumstances. Must be friends/relatives helping to hold places in line, with the actual purchaser showing up right before the door opens.

Nope, it's pretty simple. Tagholder need not be present to purchase. If you have somebody's license number you can buy them a tag (tbh, I'm not even sure you need their license, you may be able to buy it then as well). Lots of people buying tags for lots and lots of other people.

Thanks for the info - makes sense now. I didn't know that's how it works. Should have done that for my brother last year when he tried to get an NR elk tag. But I wouldn't have camped out for it....

ok. I feel thankful for having been in the 8000's.
