Rolling back the memory rolodex which is shaky at best, but, isn't previously having an archery tag from your home state akin to "certification"?
Yeah

My total bill after applying for the deer permit with bonus point and elk permit with bonus point was $1,092.41. Dumb

I have 2 bonus points for my archery elk unit. If I don't get it I am going to cry like a little school girl
Once CO and WY licenses caught up to MT's $$ people again started flowing to wherever tags were easiest to get. In 2014 a buddy was able to buy a deer combo tag online during the week of July 4th. Last yr I wasn't able to get my FIL a leftover deer combo tag in May. Pretty sure they sold out of big game (elk/deer) combos by Septemberish last yr too.
$$ is due today. Results are posted ~4-5wks later IIRC.

I dont think i worded that right its not a certification per say i cant remeber what he called it but they said it was required to have a bow hunter license that is like 10 bucks or some thing other wise your app would be thrown out this year. It was a last second change and they did not have the soft ware in yet to let you know if you dont get it you are screwed.
it is episode 106 on the rich outdoors he has a guy from go hunt that goes through every thing in montana. Find it on either itunes or i use sticher
You have me concerned now cuz when I applied it never asked for my previous years archery cert #. The next day when one of the other party members applied, it asked for his.
you know i dont want to alarm any one but they made it sound like it might screw a bunch of people an up odds for drawing with the bow this year. they explain it way better it was 2 am and i was moving snow so i might have lost some details but i know for a fact they said some thing was changing this year i will go fast forward through and try and pick it up give me a little bit and i will have it.

ok i found it if you apply for 900 elk and you did not buy the 10.00 archery stamp you will be thrown out. they did not have soft ware in place to warn you[/Q
This is fact. I called the MTFWP headquarters and they told me I needed it to apply for an archery permit. SO then I had to go back and buy the bow and arrow stamp and then you have to buy the conservation license and base hunting license AGAIN. Because you applied for the big game combo and it hasn't been ran through yet so the website doesn't know you have those licenses. but he said they will be automatically refunded afterwards.
he said its happened to ALOT of people
I may be a little dense on this subject, but, if you apply and get turned down, you get 80% of the money back?
So you give MT a couple hundred bucks just to throw your hat in the lotto?

Yup all except like $10If you only apply for a general tag, not a unit permit, and not get drawn, I believe you are refunded in full.

I got my app in yesterday and bought all the required licenses, including bow and arrow license. They didn't ask for my bow and arrow certification, but I don't think they asked last year either. My first year applying they did though. Do I need to call out there and make sure everything is ok? I didn't apply for an archery permit only area.

Is this new? I don't remember ever seeing that before when applying.

if you didn't apply for an archery permit only area I'm under the assumption you don't have to even buy the bow and arrow license until you get the tag. Which is how it was for everything in the past.
I had to fill out my archery certificate information
