WTF. Over an hour since the first members here reported results and mine still shows "pending" REGARDLESS of the search method used. Seem like it should be all or nothing.

(Update - my results finally posted about 9:56 MT)

Only the excel style search shows for me (first link in this thread) everything else still shows pending.

Instead of using the normal search feature, follow the instructions on page 1 of this thread. Unfortunately for me, I just got the bad news sooner!

I believe this is correct. Also, there is still a chance that you could draw a returned tag. If not, put your name on the "hunt roster" and you might still have a chance at a tag this year.

I’ve always been unclear on this. So unsuccessful permit returns go right back into the initial draw or do those go to the alternate list in July?

I don't think they have drawn for the NR Deer Combo yet. Folks with Elk or Big Game combo are getting results. Just my guess. Waiting on my Brother's NR Deer Combo results.

Agreed. I am one of those fellas that HAS to hunt alone when I am the shooter (less scent/people, success/failure is purely my own, etc) still nice to be able to regroup after the day around a campfire though. ISSUE NOW is if one of them want's to join to be my caller I have to be honest with them on how good they sound Kazoo players the lot of them

Hahaha I hear ya there , don't be pulling out the ol hoochie mama in a pressured area either pal!!! heard alot of those going off unfortunately

They go back into initial draw and you will get what is label a “released” tag. I’ve gotten several over the years, though I’m not sure how they are released, if they are random for everyone of split 75/25 between 0 and 2 points?

Successful!!! 3 on our Party app. all with 2 PP. 1 youth following behind as an individual. I guess he is automatic if his Dad drew?

Thanks for the clarification!

I believe that is correct, but I THINK you have to fill out a paper copy and submit it to them. That's how it was a couple years ago when my son got a tag there.

seems like its a random list with no priority on who gets drawn. unless im reading incorrectly

 

[Bugle_Lips]

NR 2pp Unsuccessful BG combo.....

 

[Dos Perros]

I drew the general elk with 0 points, still pending on the permits. Hey, I'll take it.

 

[Turkeygetpwnd38]

Got the combo with 2p, hoping for an LE tag this year but will be happy either way!

That's for the alternate list, not related to what is going to happen today.

 

[NDGuy]

Shockingly drew a Deer combo with a party app avg of 1.33 points.

 

[Tater1973]

Got lucky again this year with zero points and drew Deer combo.
