I've had 4 phones trying to call in for excess tags for the last 2 and a half hours, we all keep getting busy tone,and once in a while...a message saying my call cannot be completed at this time. We are dialing 1-800-363-3730, anyone else get through yet? is it just real busy? technical difficulties? or print the wrong #? |

I tried for 45 minutes. Got lots of recorded messages that the call coulndn't be completed. I maintain that the 1-800 number discriminates against northern ontario residents. Sam |

There must be a better alternative! Every year the ontario hunting community goes through this same frustration. |

Yes this system definatly needs much improvement, Sam, I'm from southern Ontario, about 2 hrs north of Toronto, and had no luck with 4 phones going constant, so they must have discriminated most or all of Ontario!! lol. What's with this new tag system? I hear they subbed the draws out to an American company? WTH? Are they purposly making this harder for us each year? I have to carry a filing cabinet on my back just to carry all the paper work I have to have now. What's next...Mandatory video recording of your hunt to show every flaw you make??? I shouldn't be giving them ideas!! lol |

Corman, what area was your cow tag for? The whole draw system was a joke this year. I was talking to a guy who said he got a tag for area 13 yet was in pool 2. My sister in law was in pool 1 and didn't get a cow tag, yet there were surplus tags for the area she applied. |

I drew a cow tag as an individual for 12 rifle. where I think it was 5 to be gauranteed. Stupid...The surplus was for archery in a diff. area. I also know a guy who drew a bull tag and he was in pool 2, for either 12 a or 12b (not sure which as he disnt specify, just said 12) System is fubar. |
