Blue Mountain Eagle SALEM – Hunters can check to see if they drew a big game tag for the fall by visiting the My Hunter In- formation website or call- ing 1-866-947-6339. Hunters will need to provide their Hunter/An- gler ID number, which is printed on all ODFW li- cense documents and stays the same from year to year. They also can call ODFW’s licensing divi- sion at 503-947-6101 if they are unable to locate their number. ODFW no longer mails postcards about hunt draw results. In all, 137,015 fall big game hunt tags were avail- able in this year’s draw. ODFW received 407,402 fall controlled hunt appli- cations, up from 389,172 last year. ODFW limits the num- ber of tags for some hunts to control hunting pressure and fairly distribute tags for popular hunts. $OO(DVWHUQ2UHJRQULÀH deer hunting, pronghorn, bighorn sheep and Rocky Mountain goat hunts are limited entry, along with PRVWHDVWHUQULÀHHONKXQWV Hunters who apply for a tag and don’t draw it re- ceive a preference point for that hunt series, which increases their chances of drawing the following year. The agency reminds hunters who drew a tag to purchase it no later than the day before the hunt be- gins. Only 4 more d a ys June 21, 2015 to find Dad the perfect gift!
