Bought the PA license yesterday. Decided to do the elk app and bobcat app at the same time. It's been quite a while since I did a bobcat app. I'm not a trapper and the only furbearers that I hunt are coyotes. I tried to apply for the bobcat figuring on buying furtakers if I got lucky. No way! The computer won't take it unless you already have a furtakers. So the guy who would only need a furtakers if he draws a bobcat tag has to buy it first just to apply. I'll toss 5 bucks at the lottery but not $25. I dont think I needed a furtakers last time I applied. Anyone had this experience in recent years or is this new with PALS?
