Gentlemen
We are a camp in 49 that a hunter had 12 and another had11.We are a group of 7 and did not draw a tag .Just wondering how other gangs in 49 made out and if you don't mind could you tell me if you got a tag and what your numbers were.We will hope for tag out of the second chance.If groups do not want to share their success and numbers I understand
Stay safe
If you check Page 69 of this years Summary,it'll give you a good idea of how many tags are available for the WMU you want to hunt. WMU 49 is almost identical to WMU 50 where we have our camp. Very few tags arde available for those areas no matter how many points hunters have. We have 10 guys in our camp,everyone applied in all three categories with points ranging from 7 (me) to 16 (five). No one drew a tag.Quote:

We did get 4 calf tags though. One guy had 10 points. I am unsure on the rest, but I think no less then 8. We have claimed 2 of them and will decline the other 2
For your camp - With the new system, if the guy at 12 points didnt draw a bull, then the guy at 11 would not either. The guy with 11 was basically a wasted application (along with anyone else who applied for a bull with less then 12). If he had applied for a calf he would have drawn (as shown by the guy in my camp who drew a calf with 10 points). As all the calf tags were drawn in the first draw, the 2nd and third choices in the primary draw were irrelevant.
3 Guys in our group with 14 , 11 and 9 points all applied for cow/calf tags in 27 . I received a tag (which I'll decline ) and the Guy with 9 points got a cow/calf tag ( which he will except ) ...beings it's the first year for the new system I'm sure there is flaws ... I hoping that it's a matter of using the wrong hunt codes .... but I will be checking into it .Quote:

Wow, 24 points and no adult tag I never thought there would be that many guys with 24 plus points.Quote:

Blasted_saber - We were surprised as well!! Lol
cricket - it was for wmu 49
I had 10 points and a buddy had 9 points for WMU 49 and nothing. As mentioned that area is a tough one to draw from with the limited tags available.
Too bad because we are seeing many more moose than deer.
24 points and no adult tag LOL
Our highest was 17 that went for the bull. 16 went for the cow and couple low 5 point went for calf.
No adult tag again for us. I'm done moose hunting in Ontario.
If it takes 20 years for a bull tag ill just save for 20 years and go to the Yukon instead.

So has anyone heard of a camp getting an adult tag in 49 and how many points?
If its higher than 24 now I'm thinking it will stay above
for along time.
Thanks for the reply.
I am extraordinarily curious to see the application statistics for WMU49. Its almost like "mercenaries" with max points were just going to the camp that offered the best deal. Im very curious to see if there was a major increase in application numbers for this year.
With an allocation of 60 rifle bull tags it will be interesting to see the stats on what it took to receive a bull tag.
