2021 Idaho Draw Results!

[Lilhowie83]

Several years ago there was a snafu involving youth...something about eligibility...as I recall, there were a few hundred 10/11 yo kids who technically should not have been eligible to draw, but due to misinformation from some department staff they did apply and were awarded deer/elk/pronghorn tags in the CH Draw. The Director said he looked at the tags, talked to biologists, and ultimately said he was not going to take CH tags from any 10 and 11 yo kids and just upped the quotas for many units that year.

I tell that story here, because yes, I get the heartbreak of the sheep situation but I generally think IDFG does an outstanding job on their draws. I will also say again, Idaho is one of the only states in the west that did not screw over entire generations of new hunters with these ponzi schemes known as point systems...even when budgets were tight and the almighty dollar was tempting. I will take a state that commits an unfortunate once-a-decade (or less) clerical error to any of these other western states that run a good draw but adopted a system that ultimately screws generations of new hunters.

I guess I'm more forgiving of an honest error than I am to greed and/or horrible decision making that does untold damage to new hunters.

Thank you!

Just everyone realize even if they say sucessful, idaho may change its mind a week later and add NOT to result on your application. Good luck guys

Haha. We have a 1 week cooling off period, before you should text your buddies letting them know you drew a tag in the Owyhees.

My guess is Friday….. hopefully

I am also guessing Friday, because last year was on a Friday and they don’t have to field calls about not drawing tags!!! Lol

It's always on a Friday after 5 pm.

Maybe we should have started a "predict the draw" pool. Winning some money might help ease the pain of not getting drawn!

Now, the IDFG website for online sales makes me confirm my information every time I refresh. I won if that is in anticipation of tomorrow’s draw.

I “wonder”. Autocorrect screwed me.

It only happens to NRs

In that case, I hope you guys can understand a Minnesotan accent. I promise we're nothing like Californians.

Let’s hope so! Goodluck everyone! Since all the DAV tags were gone within minutes. I wasn’t able to snag one for this year.

Much like a longtime Vikings fan, I’m ready for another helping of disappointment

As an Atlanta sports fan, I feel your pain. Still nothing from IDFG, so the "Friday after five" pick is currently the odds-on favorite in our pool. Or two weeks from now. Whatever.

Got a full on 2 1/2 hours before the 10:00 am golden hour goes out the window there bud. Gonna need you to dial it back a good 25%.
