So you’re saying the amount of zero pointers applying is growing?  Well at least we know that there is still 4,250 tags for our group. Better than any Washington special permit odds since I last checked.
minimal shift. Like 200 apps between 2022 and 2023 but besides 2021 it hovers right around 4,500 zero point applicants. Montana's new rules on points building is working as intended by flushing top points. Unfortunately they changed how they layout points use but if you do the math there's overall far less applicants with 1.2-3pts in 2022 and 2023.

Maybe for deer the increase was minimal but for the elk combo, where most appear to obtain their deer tag the increase was 22% from 2022 to 2023 according to the post from the Rockslide clip.

If memory serves me right there isn’t any tags set aside for just deer in the 25%, correct?
I haven't looked at the big game combo numbers. The thread is titled montana deer so I was assuming we were talking about deer combos :dunno:

You’re all good. I was just going back and forth a few times trying to figure out why the numbers didn’t match between the 2 post but then I realized the difference.

The interesting thing about the preference point pool that is an unknown each year is how many people bought a point without applying in the previous year. Those people would just show up with 2 points in the next years drawing so even if you buy the point you can’t use the current years number of 1 point applicants to determine how many 2 points will be in the next years drawing. As I understand it.

I think you can go in with zero and buy a point in July????
If so thats better approach than applying with one point.   
??????  Or you automatically get a point if not drawn?
none of that is accurate. You do not get a point if unsuccessful unless you pay up front for the point. You cannot purchase a point in the fall if you applied in the spring.

Karl is absolutely correct!
Thanks Karl.

On the big game combo the apps in the zero point pool jumped a bunch from 22-23. I was wondering if a lot of hunters will continue to shift to zero? Also big numbers in the 2 point pool and I was wondering if thats outfitters hunters? or just people buying 1 point and not entering the draw and then the next year applying and entering the draw with 2? Anybody seen a breakdown of outfitted hunter apps compared to overall numbers?

My guess is on the 15th.  But that is purely a guess based on absolutely zero scientific or non-scientific evidence.

I love to hunt and it has become a passion of mine to share my experiences with like minded people on my YouTube channel. If you are into that kind of thing, fallow along.
