Default Always so quiet this time of year

A couple days before the draws are due, all activity ceases in here.
It’s interesting to see. The only time with less discussing is right before the undersubscribed come out

Everyone should be at the lake chasing walleye while the poplar fuzz is flying! I’m sitting in the docs office with a broken collarbone. Prepping to be well for the sheep opener

Maybe you can save your season

You can certainly edit draws online. Very easy!

I don’t really bother with draws. Bit of a silly system so I hunt general

I tired to edit my draws. but it looks like you can only change your choices within each draw. so for me, I could change from priority only to putting in for the tag. It wont let me change it to the other draw choice of antlerless elk.

Was this a new change to the draw system this year? I have never noticed this before, I thought you could build points in both 212 cow elk and the regular cow elk draw every year.

its a bummer, but live and learn.

I would think there would be more activity too. After all the days are getting shorter and it's time to get ready for hunting season. Only two months until some seasons start.
