I originally liked the idea of building priority when they first implemented it, but feel it has pushed wait times up and out of reach for new hunters.

999 reduces the number of people drawing.
Ex: I have a p9 for antlered mule deer. Could have drawn on a 4, but I’m just keeping it in case my bow zone spot gets sold or goes dead. For the last 5 years someone else got to draw those tags. Force me to and I will, but that takes away your opportunity. Now yes one particular year I’m gonna jump into the lineup somewhere, but that’s 1 tag in what might turn out to be a decade.
Same with antlered moose. I had to put my vacation in ahead of the draws. So once the time off was secured, i drew with a p6 instead of the needed p4. Two years of extra tags going to someone who could make the time work
Why do you think that’s a bad deal?
