Thanks
Now the fun explanation. You don't get to "use" preference points later. Basically your preference points only "increase" your odds of being drawn. The way I understand it is, if you have 1 preference point in a category, you get 1 "lottery ball" in the hopper. If you have 2 points, you get 2 and so on. Many on here have large numbers of preference points (I'm up near 20 on a couple) and it is still a lottery type draw. I just supposedly have more "balls" in the lottery bin. Much different then western states preference point system. Not saying bad, just different.

If i were to change anything, it would be to limit wins to only one permit per category. In other words, you can enter as many "Either sex" hunt locations/drawing but if you win one, your done. As mentioned, one person got three permits, three locations for the same hunt category. My son and I also got drawn for two of the same type hunt at two different location for the SAME WEEKEND!
