Jim Beam and Diet Coke please.

Put in for my first lotteries this year... treated me about the same way the Powerball does!

But scotch has never failed me. And I'll have more time for scotch, this way.

Well on to my 8th year next year of trying to draw a second deer tag when my dad has drawn it 3 times now in the same time

[BIGDOG253]

  I'm back again! Its good to see some familiar faces in here. I'll have one of everything.

[kellama2001]

Whiskey. No water, no ice, and a tall glass please!

[Todd_ID]

0-for-a-bunch here, too. Couldn't even draw a second doe tag for archery at the house.

Here, have a virtual Scotch on me:

Totally shocked (not at all) that I didn't draw a moose, ram, or goat tag, or even a quality deer or elk tag, with all 3 of my accumulated points.  Figured I should have been a shoo-in for at least a couple of those...  Where's the Loser's lounge convening?

[ch1pnasty]

same but was to be expected ! at least im consistent ! burbon and a beer back

[RancidCrabtree]

Not selected across the board - family and hunting partners.
With so many hunters applying, and the moderate number of permits - I keep my expectations in check.

[eastfork]

Please serve me up. I'll take a couple shots of Jacks. Another year of across the board nada.....

How many years have they had the Quality Deer draw, my 2 buddies and I have been BUYING fake draw tags that long! Maybe next year? It started in 1997 or 1998, I was a young 48 year old I think?

It's especially annoying when you see the average points used to draw a certain permit is like 14-17, but you can't draw with 23 points! Come ooonnn. Grateful my dad started putting me in for permits as a wee lad. Might have a chance before I get put in an old folks home.

Washington's "Whose Draw is it anyways?"  Where everything is made up and the points don't matter!

If it makes you feel any better, a lot of guys drew with 23+ but the average is lower because some folks with 1, 2, 3 points drew.

Nevermind that probably doesn't help.
