2009 Incentive Permit Winners!

The special deer, elk and moose permits listed below will be selected in order by the instructors on the list of permit winners randomly selected April 6 at WDFW headquarters.

Beginning Monday, April 20, instructors will have 48 hours to select a permit option. Instructors choose in rank order (#1 chooses first, #2 chooses second, etc.). Instructors who fail to select a permit option within the required 48 hours will be "bumped" and the next lucky instructor will get to make a choice instead.

(Instructors without e-mail access should notify Jan Ulijohn immediately!)

To avoid confusion and to insure accuracy, instructors must provide selections in writing to ulijojlu@dfw.wa.gov

The permit selections below are taken directly from the draft 2009 Hunting Seasons & Rules pamphlet.

Permittees may hunt in all general season and permit seasons established for GMUs included with these permits except for the antlerless only moose permits, which is limited only to October 1 - November 30.
