Question- If you do get a surplus tag, does your pool status change for next year?
No doesn't change your status for next year.
One of our group members managed to get through and got a surplus tag.(Yeah!!) How, I'll never know because the rest of us just managed to get the busy signal. The only saving grace is next year we should have enough people in pool 1 for the regular draw unless they change everything again. What a system. B525
I wasted 12 hours of my life last year. I will never get that time back. A lottery for the remaining tags would be far better, leaving it to chance would be far less frustrating. I would never attempt to get a surplus tag via this system ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is nice that they have a site now to advise what is left. Don't remember that last year.
Stuart how did you waste 12 hours of your life last year it was only open from 5:30 till 9pm (lol). You should have been calling this morning and tried to get a bull tag.....
15 minutes last year... I had 3 cell phones calling..
I GOT THROUGH IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES AND GOT A COW!
What a relief! Now I can concentrate on hunting and not worry if I have cell or walkie talkie reception and getting charged for hunting without a tag blah blah blah.
I have no plans to use the cow tag. I will eat the tag before I eat a cow! 2 other members in my group also got through.
We commented over and over how this surplus system is run. I wonder if they'll answer the phone on wed during day 3 even if all the tags are gone.
I was fully expecting "Thank you for using the MNR Surplus Call In Service you will be charged $5 and will show on your credit card as "Liberal Party Donation" :-)
