I am expecting only Calf tag but if I get a Cow/Calf that is good to
for roaming the wilderness .
I like to spend week or two every fall in the bush harvesting a game is not a priority for me .

For the record, I was a awarded a zero-point calf tag. My hunting partner is travelling today so won’t be checking until tomorrow however I expect that he will draw a bull tag. We declined 2 bull tags after the first draw because those guys aren’t available to hunt this fall so we should be good for at least one tag next year and the year following that.
All our gang applied to the primary and got nothing. Some of us applied in the secondary and still got nothing (WMU 50-between 10 and 18 points). This year's corn and weenie roast is still a go at the old camp we decided to hang onto rather than let it go. Some us have Bear tags and three of the eight of us even got anterless tags this year which was
a huge surprise,so,other than Moose being a write off ir should still be good.
edit: I forgot to mention about the one calf tag.
1 of the guys in our group got an archery cow tag so we are going moose hunting .
I got a Calf tag with 0 point
Our group got no tags in the first and second draw with 2 of us with 12 points and 1 with11 points
I cant figure this stupid Moose draw stuff, you got be be a Bay Street lawyer to read all this crap.Quote:

Up until the 1st August 2024 , I was showing 12 points in the bank, I check today and see that I now have zero because of last years calf tag.
So it looks like I spent all 12 points getting a calf tag for WMU 60 LOL.
I've always been very good at reading law and regulations,but,I have to admit this one has me stumped,too. I thought a calf tag was exempt from point reduction. Now,I'm told that if we accept it at the primary draw stage,points automatically go to "0". One of our senior members drew and accepted a calf tag with 15 points in the primary. Before he accepted,he called me and asked if I'd go with him because his wife won't let him unless two others go,too. Now,this fella is 85 this year and let's face it,it could literally be his last although,right now,he's still in damn good shape,but,for any of us,health can turn on a dime. I'll freeze in H**l before I ever step on someone's dream. I'm in.Quote:

2nd round 2nd and 3rd choice are random and you don't loose your points.
We drew our bull tags and 3 calf tags for our group of 4. All calf tags were in the random no point draw
