Come on guys, think of 50 people you know who get deer tags and seriously ask yourself if they’re the kind of person that would shoot 2 deer knowing it’s wrong. I could maybe think of a couple people that would doubled up, but they’re also the type of people that could care less how many tags they have. And I’m sure I could list hundreds of people that deer hunt - and I used to run in a pretty rough crowd.

You, sir, are naive! There will be hundreds that will go out with the tag and harvest ONE deer on Saturday. Then go back out on Sunday and harvest their second deer. Any game warden comes by, the hunter only has one carcass and is free to go. Why would there be any inkling that possession would be higher in the backyard shop?

G&F says it was only certain letters of the alphabet that printed before they caught the mistake. I guess letters L, M, & N?!?!? about 9,000 tags were duplicated. I cannot fathom why the G&F would send each recipient a self-addressed stamped envelope requesting the tag return since they already know which licenses were affected.

Between the voting machines being botched, now we add these mistakes. How well do machines really work?

My last name starts with M and my first name starts with L. Does that mean I should have gotten 3 tags?

MOTHER OF GOD! HUNDREDS OF DEER OUR OF 130,000 STATEWIDE!?!?! HURRY, SOMEONE SUBMIT A PROPOSAL NOW TO CUT 2022 TAGS NUMBERS IN HALF!!!

I never said people wouldn’t do it. Hundreds of people out of 70,000k tag holders is in line with the number I suggested when I could think of maybe 1-2 out of a hundred that would MAYBE try to pull something like this off. I bet the number of deer poached annually is in the hundreds with likely considerable overlap of guys willing to fill two tags knowing it’s against the law. Of course there will be bad actors. Of course NDGF made a huge, bone headed, and preventable mistake. But the point I’m getting to is that people are acting like this mistake will carry catastrophic generation implications on deer numbers. And that is laughable. Especially if they’re only shooting bucks.

edit: only 9,000 tags were duplicated and they know who? If 2% of those people (extremely unlikely) double up that’s 180 deer. And they will know which folks didn’t turn in a tag. Don’t think I would risk it especially knowing eyes are on me. Hold NDGF accountable and demand an explanation, but I think we can logically move past the deerpocolypse stuff.

My last name starts with M, no tag or tags received yet. I think there is plenty of time for them to fix it. I'm just not going to worry about it, and see what happens in the next few weeks.

Has anyone else NOT received their tag(s) yet? G&F says I drew a tag, but haven’t received it in the mail yet. I’ve bought the general habitat license already too.

Neither me or my wife have got our tags in the mail yet kind of strange hopefully we get them

Are some of you still waiting for tags? I haven't seen any yet, but am guessing maybe they just took a step back to make sure they've got things straightened out before they send out any more...

Lol its the NDGF… mistakes can happen but they will make excuses and play the blame game same as when they fail audits. The late antelope apps are yet another example of the continuous mediocrity coming from Bismarck. They can do much better if they try.
