Default My $28 turkey tag



So I go online Thursday and buy my turkey tag. When I hit "print license" a blank grey screen appears. I call the help line and sit on hold for 86 minutes. No answer. I write the helpline at the given email address. No answer.

I call today, and am on hold for 45 minutes. No answer. I call the division of wildlife offices. No answer (Saturday).

I have to get my license printed, so pay the extra $4 for a reprint. It worked this time.

Little ticked off at this point......

The problem appears to be that if you have the latest version of Adobe Acrobat reader their system does not support printing....I had to have them email me my deer tags...my fishing license and my turkey tag and hunting license. Difference being everytime I called I got an immediate response and a quick resolution to the issue.

It not the first time is has happened to me, but seems random. Same machine, software, etc. I was always able to get them on the phone to email it before. Last year I paid an extra 4$ for my duck stamp.

I will have to go back to over the counter I guess. Do they charge extra for that?

Never had a problem with this process with other states. I'm not at all impressed with their provider.

I thought mine was going to freeze when I got my second turkey tag. If u buy your license online u should be able to print replacements whenever you want. It doesn't cost the state anything what's the harm?

I had the same issue but all I did was save the file and print at a different computer (work). You can also print as many copies as you want. If you save the file, you can print as many as you want later on.

Never gave me a chance to save it, but if I do it again I will see if that is a possibility.

When the license come up, scroll to the middle near the bottom of the page. A bar should appear that allows you to select save. You are saving a PDF and can print it anytime you need to.

Hint,

To waterproof your print out, spray it with a clear acrylic spray. Both sides. Works great for hunting and lake maps too. You can put it on waxed paper to dry or I clip the corner in forceps and hang it to dry.

I had a problem once and i now go to the top of the screen and hit file and then hit print. At least on my computer i can print out an extra copy in case i lose or get one wet. I do not hit the website print button.
