Both my wife and I were drawn for 249D. It will be her first turkey hunt. I got a surplus tag last year and she went with. She said "this is fun, I want to try to shoot one next year."

1 preference point. Looks like Surplus for me.

461 F made it

If you're not drawn and decide to do the bow only late season hunt does this affect the lottery next year?

[96trigger]

I don't believe that buying surplus or archery tags effect preference points. I've looked at this before, but couldn't really find a definitive answer. I do know that the last time I bought a surplus tag, my preference level didn't change.

[CapnJack]

Thanx for reply. I just went thru everything I could find on the DNR site but couldn't come up with anything. I sent them an e-mail so hopefully they will respond.

I didnt get drawn this year, when does the surplus tags go on sale or how does that work? I wish the bow tag would allow you to hunt earlier in the season just like with deer.

[Papa Grump]

I think in March the surplus tags go on sale on a first come/first serve basis, and they are usually taken within the first 10-20 minutes. 5 years ago ,I sat in line for 4 hours waiting for this at the local bait shop, and I was the 8th person in line!

I got drawn again this year, 338 E. Hopefully the fieldwork is done and I get a better chance at it more so then last year. It's usually mushroom time too so either way I will get some sort of hunting in this spring!

We got drawn - 349A - Took a few years, but we have finally drawn a tag.

Time to get the calls out and drive the wife nuts.

Good luck to all.

No draw for me... Looks like I'll have to fight the bugs and the foliage the last two time periods. Good thing for out-of-state hunts!

[LABS4ME]

Only the second time I didn't draw a tag... tried a new zone and season on purpose, that way if I didn't draw, it would force me to try with my bow, which I always wanted to do, but never did because of the 5 day deal. Now I will give it a go. 40 acres next to a new housing subdivision... birds that will not be hunted this spring until I show up!!! I've been given the nod by the developer to hunt in there if I use a bow...

Good Luck!

Yes, it is a popular zone...but how can some people get picked two - three years in a row when others get nothing?

I guess it is just luck of the draw. I would think a higher preference point should get a license before anyone else though.

[Shoot2Kill]

Preference point 9....all I had to do was go to Baghdad last summer.

[mozy]

Didn't get drawn again. I did get a surplus tag last year and will hopefully get one again this year. Oh well, still have my 2 pref points for next year.

[dukhnt]

Didn't get drawn, but I figured I wouldn't. Been getting drawn every other year since I started turkey hunting.

[Duncan7709]

I got drawn for 343 zone D. Cant wait this will be my first year turkey hunting.

[MNpurple]

[Hoyt4]

Labs:

[Gordie]

My boys and I didnt get drawn this year so its a waiting game until the surplus licences come out or the really long wait until next year. Good luck to everyone that was drawn.

[RogerMN]

Second year in a row for 339 period F.

Good luck to everyone.

[woody1975]

Found out my daughter and nephew got drawn for 349 A also. Kinda screwed up my plan. I was thinking we'd get drawn this year and they'd get drawn next year, but I guess even though they didn't apply previously for this area, there pref. points follw where ever they go. Should be a blast - It will be my daughters first year in the turkey blind - Gonna be tough if a 25# with a 10 inch beard comes in, but the first one is hers.
