Gray Lodge has a new turkey hunt that I just found out about yesterday. Oh **** the dead line is March 8th! I'm too late!. So I called them up and asked when they posted this hunt... Two weeks ago... I wish they could have posted this hunt along with the other special turkey hunts, then I would have put in for it to! Darn that just chaps my hide! Next year fo sure! I like Gray Lodge and I know the area well. Lotsa of Turkey there. Good Luck to those who were lucky to see the post and were drawn!

well, i just called the lady to see how many they are drawing for each hunt. Not great news as she said for the 4 hunts it goes 3-3-3-1. that's only 10 adult hunters! And you can't bring anyone with you! Very strange to me. Good luck to those who get drawn, but I don't like my chances

Whatever happened to the applications for the other special draw WAs? I talked to DFG weeks ago and they said they would be posted "in the next week or so". They have not been posted anywhere I can find. DFG site says they're in the Hunting Digest, but the forms there are for the 2008-2009 season. That form says you can apply online at DFG - Hunting - Game Bird Heritage , but you get a 404 for that URL.

What gives? Do they just not want us to hunt? Do they wish we wouldn't? If they really want us to not buy hunting licenses and take our money out of state to hunt, so be it, but I will also take my job, home, oh yeah, and income taxes with me!

I thank you greatly for that, but I promise you that that link was not there when I posted! If you look at the link in my message, it goes to where the link is to the actual page you posted. That link was not there earlier. I have been watching for this since I called DFG for someone else who was looking for it, and now, it is past the deadline for opening weekend/ If not for the fact that I have several toms pinned down on some BLM land (along with 3000 other hunters), I would be really upset about missing the first deadline.

Ok, I feel better now. Thank you again!

no problem. Very strange how that website works some times. I got lucky finding it like 2 weeks ago. Good luck on the BLM land, you're more ahead of the game than I am. I've scouted 3 different areas without hearing a peep. Keeping my fingers crossed for drawing a good area.
