desertbird Report post Posted November 20, 2017 I have never put in for a leftover javelina tag, my step daughter is interested in a general hunt and I have a couple of questions as I am confused with the regs... 1. Will they offer them online? 2. If they do will she need a license to apply? 3. If not, do I just buy a license and mail the regular application with my hunt numbers for 1, 2, 3 hunt choices?

Couestracker Report post Posted November 20, 2017 They won't be sold online. See other thread with list. Apply by mail so it arrives on Saturday or Monday (the 27th). On the application, request a hunt license if drawn. All these instructions are on the game and fist website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Creek Calls Report post Posted November 20, 2017 I was curious how this was going to work because in the regulations it said applications accepted online (if available) or by mail. On the new leftover list it says applications accepted by mail only. I guess that means online will not be available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertbird Report post Posted November 20, 2017 I was confused as well... and it's been years since I have used a paper app and before you had to have a license number to apply. Thanks for the clarification Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertbird Report post Posted November 20, 2017 I would have been upset if I mailed one in and then it opened up online and could ensure it was acquired at that time vs hoping your envelope was opened first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elkaholic Report post Posted November 20, 2017 the first round of leftovers is -- mail in only - they open them starting monday morning on the 27th- so most people will drop apps in mail Friday or Saturday - if you mail too early they are not accepted. after all the mail ins are over and they have any tags left - they will be available over the counter the mail in draw takes 1-2 days with posted results to follow from what I understand - they get the bag of apps dump them on a table and start picking anyone they like no order if they got mailed first postmarking s whatever 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertbird Report post Posted November 20, 2017 so the leftover indicates "Applications accepted by US Mail only ON or After November 27, 2017". So you all are saying if it delivers on Saturday 11/25/2017 they are not there to receive it so when they pick up their mail on Monday the 27th you would be in first?

Couestracker Report post Posted November 20, 2017 I called them about left over tags availability online, she said they're working on a system, may be ready for the fall. Can you say "crash"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Couestracker Report post Posted November 20, 2017 If you're going to apply for a leftover tag, be sure to NOT use the blue envelope used for the regular draw paper apps. Use the address listed on the leftover tags list. This bit me once...... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
