Exactly. And they say to ensure fairness, they are distributing the points across all pools...... :rolleyes: They say it would be too difficult to do it another way. WTF........any decent computer programmer should be able to add a box to check for where the applicant wants the points to be. If I had several points in the draw system, I probably wouldn't be as pissed off about this, but I'd still be mad because it is totally unfair. The guys with several points will be drawing all the permits for the next few years under this system......
I kind of like a lot of the permits they have listed, I just can't get past the idea that they are giving away points.
I still can't decide if I'm going to continue to support WDFW by giving them my money for permit applications. I don't know why they think they need to payback the guys who have been applying for premier permits and not getting drawn. :dunno:
I'm going to have to send another letter about this issue. I really hated the answer I got.........and I'm sure they don't have time to change the software that they've been working on for almost a year.......

That is true. I saw that and thought that would be one way for people to apply in multiple categories, and if 2 permits for the same species are drawn, you can just say you made a mistake on your application and turn it back in before the permit season starts. That might be the way I'll work the system.

That will cause the WDFW such a headache and a lot more work........... I like it.

So knowing this and having points given to you across the board why would someone NOT apply in every catagory, if they started with points in each one? You still think your odds are going to increase Bobcat or has the lightbulb finally come on. ;)
WDFW-SUX:
Did anyone else catch that Rocky big tags were reduced by 50%.....(sigh)
bobcat:
My odds won't increase as I only have 1 deer point and 2 elk points, but those with lots of points may have better odds depending on what they put in for. Those better odds may mean they will just draw a cow permit. But at least they drew a permit. All the whiners who have complained to the WDFW because they haven't ever drawn a permit will now draw a permit. It may not be the permit they have wanted for the last 15 years, but nevertheless, it's a permit!
