Fall results should be available July 19. Hunters can check draw results within cpwshop.com.
Each hunter will need a UNIQUE IDENITIFIER (CID, Driver's License number, Passport number, etc.) and PASSWORD to log in and create a profile in the new Parks and Wildlife purchasing system. A unique email is no longer required for login, but is still required for customers to get their purchase receipts, draw notifications, account update notifications, password resets, etc.
Afterwards, you can log in to your personal account and if you have draw results to show, they will appear under the "My Orders" submenu on the left navigation.
