I feel your frustration. I have never been successful at getting a leftover since they went to the online system.
I feel that it should be limited to those of us who bought the qualifying license and applied unsuccessfully, but they didn’t call and ask me.
I’ve heard that people who are more tech savvy than me have programs that auto fill login and CC info to be the fastest on the draw when the tags go on sale. I don’t know anything about it but a CPW employee told me the tech is out there.
Check back next week, you might get lucky.
I agree that they should notify previously unsuccessful applicants of an available tag they applied for, before posting it as a leftover.
Pardon my ignorance…but how can there be a leftover tag if folks had applied for that tag and were unsuccessful in drawing it? That means there were more applicants than tags, right? Maybe you’re referring to folks who applied for any tag unsuccessfully, should have dibs towards the leftovers?
Is this dealing with returned tags or a system like Idaho’s where you need to buy it before a particular date or else it is forfeited?
