This years archery tags are small enough to fit in your wallet. How in theheck do you attach them to a good size deer with out loosing them?

Was planning to get mine this weekend. Is the new one electronic now, like the fishing license?

Got mine yesterday, and I agree, its an odd size. I'm bringing along some zip ties, just in case.

yeah i agree...i dont know how I am gonna get it to fit...maybe some string ,wire, or zip ties

If it is like MI with the electronic ones, they have sticky backs on the them. What I do is put a piece of string down the middle and fold the tag over onto itself so it is stuck together around the string, then tie it to the deer. I haven't seen the IL ones yet though, as I haven't goten mine yet either, so hpefully it is similar because in MI, it works real nice.

Don't know Matt, I saw them at the Walmart last night.

The new permits have holes that you canpush a wire wrap or plastic strap through. They are totally different than prior years.

I bought mine tonight and I'm sure I had a funny look on my face when I received them. I like how they are smaller when folded but I'm sure there will be lots of confusion when people start to actually use the tags.

you are actually supposed to zip tie ot tie them on the deer i agree with how STUPID they are getting and as soon as every1 is content with this program they will vhange it again
