DUG Report post Posted May 29, 2010 My son and I are having a friendly discussion about the draw. Say when you apply for deer, is your name (names) getting a random number by hunt number or for genus? In other words is there one giant deer lottery or a single lottery for each hunt number?

izquik72 Report post Posted May 29, 2010 From my understanding it is a big giant lottery Your application is given a random # Bonus point quota is met for each hunt that applies Then 1st and 2nd choice in the first pass Then 3rd.....4th.....5th They will keep filling up the hunt #'s until they have met the alloted # of tags. Does that make sense. Is this correct? If you have multiple Bonus points you are assigned that many random #'s? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does that make sense. Is this correct? If you have multiple Bonus points you are assigned that many random #'s? Giant Deer Lottery. You get a number for each bonus point you have and one additional. Ex. 2 bonus points = 3 random numbers. Then they only take your lowest (best) number that you drew. They start to see who drew the #1 and give them their first choice and move on down the number list until all of the hunts are filled. There's also a bonus point round prior to the above, where 20% of the tags for each hunt go to those who have the most bonus points. Hope that clears it up a bit.

DUG Report post Posted May 31, 2010 Thanks Doug. I had read that before. The kid thought it was a hunt number lottery. So he owes me a gun now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
