Default RE: Illinois Deer Pins

Talked with the local shop tehat sells deer permits. He told me hes getting a box of pins to distribute to hunters. Hes been told most of all the old check stations can get these to hand out. Hunters then call in to get your confirmation number for your tag and then you show the shop that number and you get your deer pin. They are trying to save on postage and still be able to get them to the hunters. Last year they mailed the pins out one at a time in seperate envelopes. You shot 2 deer they mailed two pins in two envelopes.

Im sure they will change the system again next year.

And im with Cougar these new tags suck. Yes I like the computer system but these tags are not going to last. I wonder how many will be ripped off the animal before they make it out of the woods. Good idea, but these things need to be improved.
