I realize its the first day and all but the numbers look kinda thin.
Does anyone remember if it started this slow last year?

it's always this slow every year for the first few days.

It always starts off slow the first couple of days because the only lic. that are processed are the ones that were sent in on Friday and maybe Saturday for a couple of the closer counties. You will start to see bigger jumps towards the end of the week when the vast majority of lic. will come in from people who sent them in on Monday of later. Remember, most people don't even think of getting their lic. until Sunday night when someone reminds them that doe lic. are the next day.

or when they bring in more help to handle the load.. Last year it took forever to get my doe tag back (and then my wife moved it on me and we couldnt find it for 2 weeks) I was not happy.

Any know if they are going to hold on to the applications like they did last year? I got my mailed in doe permit a day before I got the others at the courthouse. That was nonsense.

PGC doesn't send out the doe tags, local County treasurer's offices do that.

Then why do you have to send the first few round to Harrisburg? So they can turn around and send them to the county treasurers? Thats nonsense! Why cant we go back to the old way. Just send direct to the county to start with

I mailed out for 5C WMU.. that covers a few different counties.. Which county does it get sent to? I will be mailing out 5D on the second round, which covers parts of 4 different counties.. so would that go to the county I live in, or any of the 4 counties it covers?
