As several have said in other threads the PGC will not be live streaming the drawing this year, However I received an email early this week from the PGC elk biologist stating that they will be recording it and posting it on YouTube for a short time. Last year they did something similar but the YouTube video only lasted for several hours and was taken down. There are privacy issues that the PGC lawyers have always been leery of and they cringed when it was live streamed and out on the web infinitely. The issue is with the names and corresponding CID numbers that are displayed on the screen and visible. Likely that is why recently the video had only posted for several hours on YouTube and then taken down.

I plan to put a list up on our ECO social media page that will contain hunter name and town but no CID number for public view. If you miss the PGC YouTube video and are still wondering if your name or someone you may know was drawn be sure to check in with us on social media and look for your name. The PGC does a good job now of notifying lucky applicants within several hrs of the drawing so stay near your phone around 2pm tomorrow! Good luck to all who applied!!!!

With the ease of information gathering on the internet........there are privacy issues with this too. The anti's feed off this stuff. They don't need any more help than we have to give them.

I cleaned some PMs out Trask...I hadn't been on in awhile and didn't realize I was full up. I'm still working on the list for FB guys. I had to get out to a place w/reception and then transfer the names from my video camera to the computer. I had to take a break and check into HPA...haha
