Way to go Zim! I am glad for you and hope you have some great luck filling your tag! I can remember the feeling when I got my tag 2 years ago. Now that my 2 year wait is over I am hoping I can get another one myself. I put 2 of our kids name in and the wife's hoping to have one drawn.. But I know it took me around 30+ years to get a draw..

I also wish you well on your Maine tag as well. Keep in mind on your hunt that the ticks are bad this year up this way. I have been bitten twice this year and have never in my life been bit by one. They have killed off some of our moose as well.

I think they will be drawing ours on the 23rd I am not sure it could be the 24th instead.. I will have to check when I get a chance to.

Only bad thing is my neice is getting married in Indianapolis on opening day of my 9 day hunt. :( I will drive up on October 13th to make a camp and scout 5 days. Then fly to Indy Fri/Sat, may not be able to start hunting til Monday. That would suck.

I'm checking flights out of Manchester, but it was mentioned there may be a couple other options.

Ya I read NH slashed moose tags from 675 to 275 or something due to the ticks. Less than half. Yikes beat long odds. I hate ticks. Saw a lot in Wisconsin on my turkey hunts by my Permethrin put the hurt on them. No bites.

Just got off phone with Maine F&W and had my application changed to points only. They are very cool about that. I don't know of another state I apply in where they would do a change so short before the draw date, with zero paperwork. Just a phone call. Old school.

Good for you others to keep in mind should you draw a conflicting tag in the future.

New Hampshire
 

Congratulations Zim! (I never thought of New hampshire)

I guess we'll know about Maine, pretty soon.

Good hunting!

Well this afternoon they will start drawing the tags here. I am hoping for some luck on it..Good Luck to everyone that has applied here..

Maine Moose
 

Congrats to those who pulled a tag!

I'll try again next year.

No luck here either.. Congrats to those that did as well..

I just wanted to add that the Moose population here is estimated to be at 75,000. This after a survey that was done this past spring.. Here is a link to it..

I hit it first time.
 

:confused:Hey Fellas, I just drew a cow moose tag for wmd3. HELP!! I hate to even tell you that this is my first try at the draw. I thought I was going to have a few years to get all the info but now I have to scramble. I really can't believe my luck. Anyone know anything about the wmd? I pulled "nwk" season. I assume that is november? Please don't hold my good luck against me.

I think you are right, if memory serves me it's Nov 5 to the 10th. I drew a cow tag in WMD 6 for NWK also after 13 years of entering the lottery!!!:fighting0007:
