I will be hunting with my buddy for elk it looks like. I pulled an easy to draw archery tag. Used to be over the counter but changed last year.

Good job to you time2hunt.  Snake river is a cool unit to hunt and be in!

Goose eggs for my son and I.  Dang it!

I have been curious how many people would apply for the units that were OTC until last year and what kind of odds they would have.

[robescc]

I got my lucky cow tag. I’ve gotten one opening morning every time I’ve drawn it.

[2MANY]

With only 22 points I really didn't expect to draw anything.

Probably just head down to Portland and riot instead.

[Halo]

Nothing for me, as expected.

[Sneaky Squirrel]

Not Selected for me either..... Hopefully i can change my luck in Washington.....

[kselkhunter]

I swear, how dumb is their website! I admit to never applying before but I log in, go to my portfolio and NO where is there a tab “see results” or “check results” !  It’s like a secret decoder ring is needed! No email, no nothing…..  I’m sure I didn’t draw but would be nice to confirm.

"Controlled Hunt Wins" under your Recreational Portfolio, that lists which controlled hunts that you applied for that you were awarded a tag......

Sledd Springs Elk!

My buddy has been hunting the area for a long time and has said I should come down and hunt with him for years but I finally decided to do it this year. I at least have the advantage of hunting the area with some with intimate knowledge of the area. He is still a few years away from his Walla Walla tag.

The odds are going to get worst as the years go on I think. Last year there was one NR that did not get selected. This year there was about 30 NR that didn't get selected.

Congrats to all who get to hunt Oregon!
The wife finally drew the Umatilla #3 refuge buck tag. Took 27 points to get it, should be a lot of fun sneaking around looking for a hog buck!

Me to, I've been putting in for tag also but I'm back at 22 points I think.

[Flaming Antler Outdoors]

Metolius muzzleloader deer tag!  16yrs to draw it

[Crunchy]

We drew our east side archery elk tags. Good thing because I just got back from 2 1/2 day trip from there hanging trail cams and cutting in some trails.

[Shawn Ryan]

I'm one of the NR who didn't draw the east archery tag that I've had for 13 years. That sucks. However, drew rifle deer in Murderer's Creek, which I expected, given the points I had.

Congrats to Finnman's wife. Looking forward to that hunt--vicariously..

Yeah the new everything on the east side bites. I didn’t draw last year. Feel your pain.

[Sneaky Squirrel]

Hoping one of you experts in Oregon can answer a question.
I applied for a tag that I didn't have enough points for hoping to get it in the 25% pool. No Dice. When looking at the Controlled Hunt Draw Execution report that Oregon had posted, it appears that you enter the drawing with the point total you had from last year. So when applying this year, you don't get a point until after the draw. Does that seem right?

I had 5 points last year and now my account is showing 6 points. When scrolling thru the excel sheet, i found my app # and it only said i had 5 points for this year.....

I could do a little digging but figured one of you fellas would have this dialed in. Appreciate any answers!

[kselkhunter]

Correct.  You enter the draw with your existing points, and if you don't draw you get awarded another point if unsuccessful. 

[ShaneTyTrey]

That is correct, I believe all preference point states do it that way, and the bonus point states give you the bonus point prior, similar to Washington.

[Sneaky Squirrel]

Roger that. Thank you fellas!

Looks like I'm 1 point further behind then i thought. Probably more with the point creep but it appears like maybe it leveled off this year due to the changes the last few years.

[Crunchy]

so if you do draw do you go into next year with one point already?  Or start at zero?

[Sneaky Squirrel]

By the report, you go in with 0 points. That also aligns with what the others have stated as well.

[Crunchy]

That makes no sense. If you don’t draw the points used were what you had going into the draw. If you do the points were what you had going into the draw plus this year’s point??

[Sneaky Squirrel]

I agree with you, don't make sense. You should go in the following year with a point.
But i wonder if you draw, that takes your point away for the year.

[Ricochet]

By the report, you go in with 0 points. That also aligns with what the others have stated as well.

Correct. You get a point for every year you don't draw, so those points aren't added until after the results are known, when you successfully draw you go back to zero.

[Farmer72]

Sprinkles are for winners and points are for losers. That's the way I think of it.

[Shawn Ryan]

Last year there were more tags than apps for the archery unit I applied for. This year there are a lot of NR's that didn't draw.  I'll guess that is largely a function of WA hunters fleeing WA.

However, my luck is not all bad: There were only 3 NR apps drawn after I drew my buck tag. In fact, a group of 4 NR's didn't draw just after me because there were not enough tags--the group of 4 was one too many. 3 other NR's drew after them. Also, in the spring bear hunt, I was the last NR to be selected in the 25% pool.

Getting tougher to draw OR as an NR!

Sledd Springs Elk!

My wife and I will be in sled hunting cows in September. Hopefully put her on her first elk.

[erronulvin]

How did that archery guys do so far for oregon this year, any big bulls killed?

A buddy shot a nice 5 pt in the unit I didn't draw.

[Crunchy]

Kind of sucked for us.  Wolves really cleaned house on the elk.  I made three trips down there from the opener to about the 22nd of the month and never heard a bugle.  One of my hunting buddies did here two different bulls bugle over a 4 days time.  Thinking late rut for where we were.  Talked to hunters that hunted a bit higher elevation and they had a little action but not too much.

[finnman]

It was a great one day hunt in Oregon!
Wife shot the buck she wanted not the biggest in the herd of 6 bucks, But she is happy and it was a great job putting it all together going from a half mile to 125 yards in the wide open.
Good hunting to all!!

[millerwheeler]

New year new odds good luck all
