Idaho Elk Tags SOLD OUT

[LousyResident]

Can I sidebar really quick? How on earth do I buy an archery permit in Idaho for this year? I can't find it as an option online anywhere.

If your talking Idaho, you probably have to have your Archery Hunter Safety Course (I think thats what it's called now) on file first. If that's not it, sorry probably can't help.

I understand it and fairly they will still be overall cheaper but the overall quality is less than MT, WY and NM so i am torn. I have been hunting idaho for 6 years and during elk season i see more hunters a typical day than i do in a WY season so i think its a number of tag problems res&nonres. Idahos a growing state i dont think raising fees help that.... and whats with $80 archery stamp on top of a archery only tag(should be included)? I do wish they would change the tag fee upfront for big 3 tags or atleast speed up refunds.

This is only tangentially related to tag applications...

I'm an ID resident. A few years back, I filed my tax return early, as I usually do. I called them around mid-May, asking where my refund was. They told me that if they waited past 15 June (I believe that was the date), they would have to start paying me interest, so I would get it the day before that. Pretty ballsy thing for them to tell a taxpayer on the phone, but it did happen, and I got my refund the day before they would have been required to pay me interest. They keep your money for a reason. And yes, I wrote my elected officials about that. I've stopped state tax withholdings, and I make sure they get their money the day before I'm late.
