Post by: Mfowl on June 11, 2014, 07:55:22 PM: A few years ago I drew a Qbull tag with 3 points. This year my group of 3 drew cow tags with a 1pt avg. Better to be lucky than good sometimes!

Post by: antlerking on June 12, 2014, 05:43:03 AM: Its kinda crazy the LUCK of the draw! I have an aquaintance that drew the late entiat with 3 points and then drew the late chiwawa this year with 6, two quality tags in less than 10 years and most of my other buddies have 14+ and still havnt pulled a tag. I cant complain we have pulled a few here and there but the system is def. weird!

Title: Re: Did you draw a quality elk/deer tag w 5 points or less?
Post by: BIGMIKE on June 13, 2014, 06:35:03 PM: I think the magic number is 4 points. I drew Blue Creek Archery in 2012 with only 4 points. I see a lot of hunter with 4 points getting drawn. So, I should draw Dayton archery in 2 years. :chuckle:

Post by: Alan K on June 13, 2014, 06:48:10 PM: Might as well look at the actual data rather than a small skewed sample on Hunt WA.

http://wdfw.wa.gov/hunting/permits/results/points/2013.php (http://wdfw.wa.gov/hunting/permits/results/points/2013.php)

It's 2013, but over that large a sample size, the 2014 results will be similar.

That would depend on how many permits are available.

Pay attention to the labels, there are "applications" and "applicants."

An applicant is each individual person who applies. More than one applicant can be listed on each individual application.

Say there are two applications for a permit and each one was a group application with two people in one group and three in the other.

In the first column it would show 2 for the number of applications and in the third column would be 5 for the number of people included in those two applications.

Once you understand this, I think the rest will be self explanatory.

Post by: huntnnw on June 16, 2014, 04:48:15 AM: people have an obsession with points in this state..I dunno if its people comparing it to other states such as UT or CO etc where when you have certain pt totals it actually means something, but in this state points almost mean nothing! every year its just another chance at a permit.
