Blackhills tag??

[Hobbes]

How fast have you gotten a Blackhills tag in the mail this year?

I know nothing about it other than to point out that, depending on the state, nonresident license sales were suspended because of the virus concerns. ....Don't know if this is applicable to your question or not, Hobbes....

I called Monday and was told to expect 10 days

[Hobbes]

I hope sooner than that, but I'm going as soon as it shows up.  It's a last minute decision, so I'll just have to take the beating if it takes too long.

I'm in scramble mode right now.  Season is ending in MT and I've not hunted nearly enough.

You couldn't have bought it in state, or get a duplicate once you get there???

[Hobbes]

You have to order online or purchase in Pierre .  I'm not sure if you can walk into their office now and purchase

Picked up a leftover prairie tag and it came in 3 days.

That sounds promising.  I did that once for my first Western bird back in 01 or 02 when I still lived back East.

It is possible to have it printed in state but is an act of Congress and some luck right now with all the state offices closed. We rolled the dice on a last minute trip there this year and didn't realize the licenses took 7-10 days to arrive. Started calling around and got someone at a license dealer that would print the tags if we got the state office to approve the duplicate tags and fax something over to them. It was like $25-30 extra to have tags printed at the store.

My suggestion is to find someone willing to print the tag in the area you are going, get all their info to pass along and then call the state licensing line. It took us several calls to get squared away.

Thanks for the info

That sounds good

Here's the work around and we did this last week in SD. Purchase your permit online, go to a Cabela's in state and have them print you a replacement permit. You can use it while you're there. The unused original tag MUST be mailed back to the SDGF&P once you return home.

Thanks Shane.  I'm hoping it shows up by Friday next week to avoid all of that, but it's good to have some backup plans.

You're welcome. SDGFP is good about getting permits mailed out promptly. All of my tags have shown up within a few days of purchasing them online.
