Look above it in yellow where it says you “do not have any successfully drawn ” ……..
And below it
Not successful

But if you rad it all - it says successful for released tags. never had this before - just trying to clarify

Its definition explanations
Its on mine as well

Definitely brightens up the day after seeming a successful draw for general deer combo  :IBCOOL:

Hopefully my older two boys can kill their first deer :tup:

One buddy with 2 points did not draw deer elk combo.  The other buddy said he had one point and did draw deer/elk combo.  Trying to find out if he REALLY did have one point or actually had zero.  Be real interesting to see this years draw statistics.  Last year was 97.5% for 2 points deer/elk combo.

Well one of the two is screwed up on what they had because once again, it's a preference points system and someone with 1 cannot draw before someone with 2.

Had it happen to some friends of mine. Applied 3 years in a row and wondered why they didn’t draw.  Started over this year by buying the preference point so they should draw next year if they buy the preference point again.

I think some people are getting the bonus and preference points confused. You can draw with 1 bonus point before someone with 2 preference and others cannot draw with 3 bonus points.

He didn't win in the main draw but scooped the combo on a return.

Got it now- Some people put in for special hunts and check the box that says release general combo license if not drawn for special permit.  These immediately go back into the pot.  So buddy got that.
