You nailed it Romulus.  That was exactly my point in another thread.  Even the guys with max points right now still have crappy odds.  And what people don't realize is that the vast majotiry of us well NEVER get an OIL tag or a quality bull tag.  NEVER

OIL is a misnomer.  NIL is better: "Never In a Lifetime" for 99% of the hunters.

Special permits have become just another lottery.  People that play the game have a chance, just like buying a lottery ticket.

While cleaning up some old files, I came across a couple of spreadsheets I created to streamline the result publication/printing process.  Looking at this year's results it looks like they are still using them.  They should give you an idea on how the stats are created, and the process of what happens after the drawing is completed and verified.

The first file is where all the raw data from the WILD system is pasted into, and the second is the cleaned up version that gets posted at http://wdfw.wa.gov/hunting/permits/results/.
