As an out of state hunter, can i purchase over the counter Deer tags on October 12th for a hunt that starts Oct 10th?

Area 24 (McCall area) Short range I get into town on October 12th around 5-6am and will be at the Fish and Game when they open on Friday morning.
Answer: 
Yes, it is legal for any hunter (whether resident or nonresident) to purchase big game tags after the season for them has opened.
