Time to start the pre-work on this season's "shopping list".

Those total entry numbers vs tags drawn for antelope and turkey are something else

Was drawn for turkey with my 74 year old father last spring. So happy we got to do that together cause its not ever happening again.

It really is a good tool.

I thought I waited a long time for my mule deer draw at 13 years but there are some awfully patient people out there with 15+ priority points. It's been quite a while since I saw a mulie worth waiting 15 years for

It's a good tool, but some people put too much faith in it. A guy can draw a tag in 5 years in one wmu, but then everyone sees that the priority required for that wmu is lower than other wmus, and the next year, it takes a P8, because many more people apply in that wmu.the summary actually has a significant effect on some draws.

The odds of success for pronghorn have actually improved from where it was , as the number of applicants are down significantly from where they were. Depending on the distribution of 999, I may actually live long enough to draw again.

Elk you will probably be over 80 the next time your drawn. I was draw this past fall as a P12 and didn’t see anything I wanted to shoot. I realize there is a pretty good chance I won’t get drawn again.

I am currently a P6, so not starting fresh.

I have been drawn 4 times in my life so far in 1990, 1994 then not again until 2005 and the last time was 2019 if things keep going like they are now I probably won't live long enough to get another tag as God knows how long it will take this time, my goal is to live long enough to hunt antelope again, hey we can all dream
