Re: all rite!!

Congratulations....my son and I also got picked for doe tags!

Here is what the IF&W site says about the bonus permit....(you have to click on the "Any deer" link on the hunting and fishing page to find it....)

Bonus Deer Permits

Bonus Deer permits will only be awarded in WMD's where there are more permits available than applications received. In 2004, Bonus Deer permits were available in WMD 22, 23, 24, 25, and 30. If you do not want to apply for an Any-Deer permit but would like to apply for a Bonus Deer permit should bonus permits be available, make sure you designate a WMD choice for a Bonus Deer permit. No WMD changes can be made after the drawing.

• A Bonus Deer permit entitles a hunter to an additional antlerless deer.

• Bonus Deer permits are for antlerless-deer only.

• An applicant may choose to apply for a Bonus Deer permit and not apply for an Any-Deer permit.

• Bonus Deer permits will be distributed to hunters who applied for a Bonus Deer permit in the WMD where Any-Deer permits went unused. If selected to receive a Bonus Deer permit, there will be a $12.00 fee.

• Successful Bonus Deer permit applicants will be notified by mail in late September, and must pay a $12 permit fee (in person or by mail) before receiving the Bonus Deer Permit.

• Bonus Deer permits may be used at any time during the archery, expanded archery (designated areas only), firearm, or muzzle-loading seasons on deer, but only in the assigned WMD. Hunters are not required to fill their Any-Deer permit prior to using a Bonus Deer permit.

• Bonus Deer permits are available to residents and nonresidents and will be allocated in the same proportion of residents to nonresidents as the regular Any-Deer permit drawing.

• Bonus Deer Permits may be transferred to a junior hunter, a hunter 65 years of age or older, or to a person with ambulatory disabilities (suffering from the loss of, or the permanent loss of use of, both lower extremities) in the same manner as Any-Deer permits. (See transfer of Any-Deer permit).

These permits will help achieve population goals for the Wildlife Management District by requiring the hunter to take only an antlerless deer. The benefit to the hunter is being able to take a second deer during any open season, greatly increasing opportunity. We assume that hunters who apply for an Any-Deer permit in a Wildlife Management District are likely to hunt in that area because they live there or have a place to hunt.
