Multi-season Tag drawing odds

[Tacbeav]

I was curious about the multi-season draws odds.  They are not yet available for 2022 on the WDFW website that I could find.  In 2021 for deer, it was 8,500 tags for 21,641 apps, 39% chance.  Elk was 1000 tags for 20588 applicants, 5% chance.

It’s worse than that if you factor in the squaring of points.

  I've put in every year for elk and have never drawn, so I have like 14 or 15 points. I lost track at this point, but my points theoretically give me a better shot at being issued a lower number in the draw than a person with only 1 point. The bottomline is the odds are much worse than your calculations once y ou u figure in squaring of the points.

Will have 12 points this year for elk, but those odds are terrible either way, 20 or 1 point.

I've got 7, 8, 9, 10, & 11 points in elk categories.  That number of squared points amounts to

I drew elk in 2013 with 5 points, then again in 2022 with 8 points. I guess I will be lucky if I ever draw it again, but I have really enjoyed it when I’ve I had that tag.

I’m going in with 6 elk points and 3 deer points. I have bought the deer tag every fall anyway but I have been in a losing streak. When I started the multi season draw 7 years ago it was about 100% draw odds for deer.

wow that's disappointing odds. I was hoping to draw this year with zero points.   lol

Meanwhile some dingus is drawing with zero points and not purchasing the tag.

I didn't get redrawn last year until October. I haven't heard a straight answer if they're sticking with the same system as last year, or reverting back to first come first served. Anyone know for certain?

You get a point when you buy the application, so everyone starts with 1 point.  Back to zero when you draw.
