[Doc]

No Lifetime license in today's mail for me.

[thphm]

SOB go to Bowsite read what is right below your last comment There.

[Fletch]

got mine yesterday in the mail. Funky feeling material. No wonder they are having printing issues. Probably not cheap either!

[Sogaard]

One of my sons got his on Wednesday.  My other son is still waiting for his to arrive.

[jr.deerslayer]

Still nothing in the mail for me yet.

[fasteddie]

I believe they took care of us important people first !

Ok, Mine came today. However, since I don't have a lifetime bow license, I stopped down to the town hall to get my bow license and two antlerless permits. Things got a little weird then. First of all, my wife couldn't get her fishing license because the computer that hooks all of her info to the auto licensing system couldn't find her. All her info was put in about 4 or 5 times and it screwed up everytime. So she will have to go back and try later on another day.

 

Everything went fine with my bow license and my two permits except that apparently there is some printing problem with Ontario County (and maybe more) that mis-registers the one side from the other so that if you flip the license over to cut out the notched month and day, you will find them part way across the next perforated tag. Archery only as near as I can see. It's going to make tagging a bit of a challenge if I get a deer with the bow.

 

This is the first glitch that I have ever had, in all the years that the computer has been involved in licensing. I have always been a big fan of DECALS. So why on earth did they change the whole thing around once they got the bugs out of the old system? Anybody know?

[Fletch]

Doc my thoughts exactly. The old system worked great.

 

I guess Brainstorm Andy decided it needed to get replaced because it did not tie in/ talk to the other government systems? So millions spent that did not need to but hey that is all government is good for.

Mine came sometime last week, maybe even 2 weeks ago...

That black bear credit card type card is your fishing license. They send it every few years. I keep my old one in my truck in the event I misplace my wallet while out camping/ fishing.

Mine says Lifetime Sportsman, not just fishing.

[Top ramen]

As does mine. Put it in your wallet as proof of fishing license.

[HectorBuckBuster]

My lifetime license arrived a few days ago. Also the hard Black Bear card says lifetime Sportsman & bow on mine.
