fisherking01 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I got 213 A !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 I got my 347C! I'm pretty pumped! This could be another really fun spring!Good luck to the rest and don't forget about those surplus tags. By next year when I'm not drawn, I hope to be more proficient with the bow. I advise others to do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamalex72 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Both my wife and I were drawn for 249D. It will be her first turkey hunt. I got a surplus tag last year and she went with. She said "this is fun, I want to try to shoot one next year." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapnJack Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 If you're not drawn and decide to do the bow only late season hunt does this affect the lottery next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96trigger Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I don't believe that buying surplus or archery tags effect preference points. I've looked at this before, but couldn't really find a definitive answer. I do know that the last time I bought a surplus tag, my preference level didn't change.

CapnJack Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Thanx for reply. I just went thru everything I could find on the DNR site but couldn't come up with anything. I sent them an e-mail so hopefully they will respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hill7410 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I didnt get drawn this year, when does the surplus tags go on sale or how does that work? I wish the bow tag would allow you to hunt earlier in the season just like with deer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Grump Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I think in March the surplus tags go on sale on a first come/first serve basis, and they are usually taken within the first 10-20 minutes. 5 years ago ,I sat in line for 4 hours waiting for this at the local bait shop, and I was the 8th person in line! I got drawn again this year, 338 E. Hopefully the fieldwork is done and I get a better chance at it more so then last year. It's usually mushroom time too so either way I will get some sort of hunting in this spring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody1975 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 We got drawn - 349A - Took a few years, but we have finally drawn a tag.Time to get the calls out and drive the wife nuts.Good luck to all.DL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticknstring Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 No draw for me... Looks like I'll have to fight the bugs and the foliage the last two time periods. Good thing for out-of-state hunts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABS4ME Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Only the second time I didn't draw a tag... tried a new zone and season on purpose, that way if I didn't draw, it would force me to try with my bow, which I always wanted to do, but never did because of the 5 day deal. Now I will give it a go. 40 acres next to a new housing subdivision... birds that will not be hunted this spring until I show up!!! I've been given the nod by the developer to hunt in there if I use a bow... Good Luck! Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Handle Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Yes, it is a popular zone...but how can some people get picked two - three years in a row when others get nothing?I guess it is just luck of the draw. I would think a higher preference point should get a license before anyone else though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoot2Kill Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Preference point 9....all I had to do was go to Baghdad last summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozy Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Didn't get drawn again. I did get a surplus tag last year and will hopefully get one again this year. Oh well, still have my 2 pref points for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordie Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 My boys and I didnt get drawn this year so its a waiting game until the surplus licences come out or the really long wait until next year. Good luck to everyone that was drawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
