2022 special permit draw results

[GASoline71]

This will probably be the year I draw... I almost just put in for points options on all my draws because we are selling our home and buying another one this fall... crappy timing for it all, but it is what it is.  lol 

So there will be a period we will be living in our 5th wheel for a couple months on my inlaws property.  So this will be the year we're drawn and successful and no room for anything!

I hear ya

25 pts for all Oils and Im moving to Idaho in July. This will be the year, my last chance. Ill figure it out  Already coming back for a Mule Deer hunt

[Flaming Antler Outdoors]

I am retiring and moving to Montana likely in 5-6 years. I pray for OIL but I will not leave Wa without spending my pts in all other categories.  I will likely have to start appyling for much easier draws now to get them burned up in 5.

I am in the same boat
Need to get easier tag to get rid of my points soon

[millerwheeler]

I love the high point holder thoughts of “burn points on east categories” really doesn’t seam like any are a easy draw anymore

[Ridgerunner]

There are no easier tags, with the number of applicants and limited number of tags, put in for the easy ones, I bet that you would be lucky to draw 1 or 2 in the next 5-6 years.

There certainly are easier to draw permits, some are much easier to draw than the most popular choices. Look in the Quality deer category. Some of the most popular permits are as bad as 1 in 800 odds, many are around 1 in 100. But there are some with much better odds. Especially looking at the west side quality permits, some are 1 in 10. A person with over 20 points would definitely have a good chance at drawing one of the blacktail quality permits.

  Seems they're succeeding in programming many to lower their standards and accept less while thinking it's more

True, but are they quality? I wouldn't even drive from the E side to hunt a lot of the W side quality deer tags. I live on the W side and don't put in for them.

Had a great conversation with Shaniqua yesterday, boys and girls.

We are going to get results very soon.

Take that to the bank!

You learn many things on huntwa. One of which is when timberstalker talks to shaniqua you can count on it being off by at least 2 weeks  so my guess is June 9th!!!! Take that to the bank

They're in the quality category. It's up to each person to decide if it's worth their quality points or not. I applied for a couple of quality blacktail hunts last year with 8 points, but didn't draw.
