Yep.

Dumb, isn't it? If they're going to let people put in for multiple categories for the same species, the drawing should be set up in a way so that if a person draws one permit they're automatically disqualified for any more permits for that same species.

I know what the WDFW would say to that... it's too complicated. Just like it would be too complicated to allow people to CHOOSE which category they want their points to go into, rather than putting points into ALL categories.

I can't count the number of things that are wrong with this proposal.

bobcat:
I see there are 3 people who voted in the poll and support the proposal. It would be nice to hear from you people and if you could please let us know WHY you support it?

I actually hope these proposals go through.  I don't think it will be as bad as people are making it out to be. :twocents:  My hunting seasons do not revolve around drawing a special permits.  I have never drawn one, but I also realize that this is what comes with putting in for high demand hunts.  I'm looking forward to the 2 choice system for quality hunts, because this will increase my odds.  Will I put in for cow/doe hunts, probably not, I just have no desire to kill a cow/doe.  The odds of drawing one permit are hard enough, let alone two, so people getting multiple permits is not that big of a deal.  Yeah, there will be a few, but the odds are just not that great and good for them if they do.  I think what really getting most people worked up is the issue with points being transferred across the board.  Nobody knows how many large point holders are out there and how they hunt.  I'm sure there are many like me that have no desire for these additional antlerless tags.  Even if all the high point guys bought into this new system, they might skew the odds for one/two years at most then they will be out.  Odds are you probably wouldn't have hit that antlerless tag anyways during those years.  It's a random draw.  Once again these are my  :twocents:.

Can you please explain why you believe that?
