Default 437 sheep draw

Anyone else in a pickle with there 437 sheep draw. I’m currently sitting at a P18 and the math just doesn’t seem to add up with 8 tags a year allotted. I Really messed it up missing the few couple years entering when I was younger son of a gun.

I know what you mean junkie.. good on your for getting in as soon as you could. I made a mistake back then and missed out on 4 years of eligibility. Now it’s a crap shoot of variables if I am ever gonna get drawn

Just remember it's not what it used to be. Is it even worthwhile waiting for anymore? Better prospects across the road.

Yea I don’t get the hype for these draws, especially when you can buy a general tag and go sheep hunting!

They were coveted draws at one time for a reason

Who knows maybe part of the plan to consolidate the draw codes will involve removing all zone specific sheep draw codes and in turn create a single trophy sheep priority which can then be used for any drawable zone like any other draw.

Step one Cyprus either sex shifting to either antlered or antlerless priority this year. Maybe next year we see changes to sheep. Maybe your high priority will still come in handy and be salvageable
