The way Washington's draw process works makes points pretty much useless. For instance Swakane Ram tag, 20 points = .09% chance to draw   -   1 point =  less than .001% chance to draw. So 20 years of applying gets you a .09% greater chance to draw than a person that applied for their first time ever.

You get a 90x greater change to draw then the first time applying... but your odds are still garbage at .09%

0-5 points = 3 selected
6-10 points = 9 selected
11-15 points = 39 selected

For oils, it’s like saying the 6’ tall guy has a way higher chance of getting hit by lightning than the 5’4” guy.

I’m 6’4” so that’s why I drew with 9 pts.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Well... this theory makes as much sense as any I have heard yet.  I'm only 5'6" and have never drawn a quality tag of any kind in 18 years. 

I'm calling my *&%ing congressman... >:(
