Points mean so little in these draws. I've figured it out once and the draw odds are less than 1% per ticket pull. I didn't try to figure the odds with the multiple pulls, your choices, odd of getting pulled while your choice remains, ect... But it's less than 1% unless you have lots of points and then its like 1 to 4% or somewhere in there. Most folks won't draw in their lives.
Most years it seems the raffle tickets are much better odds.

Many of the applicants have 10-15 points, so most of the tags are pulled by folks in that point range. I'm sure that phenomenon will creep right along with that applicant pool.

Idaho seems the best draw odds for them critters, by far.

I wouldn't say that points mean so little. Agreed that having a lot of points does not mean you have a good chance of drawing, but having 10 points makes you 10 times more likely to draw than a guy with 1 point, right?

Actually it would be 100 times better chance of drawing with 10 points versus only 1, since 10 squared = 100 and 1 squared = 1.

I have 18 for Goat and Sheep and 17 for Moose. I better hurry up and draw the Goat and Sheep, I'm not getting any younger

I didn't realize it was squared. You learn something new every day, and every once in a while it's something useful!

12 isn't a bad place to be. No matter what keep in the game and you never know when your lucky number will appear.
I drew my goat permit in 99 with 3 points which was max at the time.   
2 permits for 2600 people.

I was lucky and that's what it comes down to.

Imo points dont really matter in the oils. You have a horrible chance anyways.  im still in for all 3 tho!

[Critter Ritter]

ill be going in for all three with 9Points this year

I have up on moose and goat but still put in for sheep. Sick of giving the state money that i didn't really have to. Hopefully i will get lucky and draw the tag sometime in the next couple of decades.
