Default Suffield Antlerless Elk

Does this draw come with 2 tags, as the cull last year or just one tag? Can't seem to find the answer anywhere. My 18 yr old son was drawn so he is pretty pumped.
Thanks,
Baz

antlered elk on suffield is the only tag i've heard of people drawing and pretty much everyone got it.

as far as all the other tags go nobody i have talked to got what they should have gotten given last years results. so i suspect two things more hunters cashing in chips this year because it's slow and they have time off work or way less lags given out.

i think tags went down big time

There are a few possible reasons for this. One being tag reductions. But it's a stretch to apply the results in one zone across the entire province.

So did others I know as well as many on here obviously. 100% of priority 8 got the tag in 2014.

Thanks guys, I was on the base for a deer hunt last year (solo) but saw more moose than deer, I would prefer to go for moose with a helper.

I got the Antlered Mule Deer draw & that makes me happy. Now I can start scouting some new areas in the wmu I picked & where I hunt mostly.

Default Thank you hunting Gods!

The hunting Gods have smitten me with their love this year! I would post all my draws but it truly seems unbelievable. I just hope that none of my tags are going on the Christmas tree. I hope pictures will follow at the end of this year.
