    I am looking forward to see what changes they made to the drawing system. Last I heard they were trying to implement a drawing system to increase odds for the guys with lots of points. Really hope this happens!

          Its all heresay at this point but it sure would be nice to see this in place for 2016, but 2017 is more realistic.

                  I got drawn for alligator last year and had to skip the hunt. Couldn't get days off during a turnaround. I was sick. Took me 5 years to draw that tag.

                    It does seem like they get fewer and fewer every year. Especially with all the flooding this year I'm sure several more will be off the board.

                      But then you take a chance on getting drawn and having to decline. I did that a couple of year ago on rifle buck and lost all my points. That is one reason standby has gotten harder. Since its online, if you decline, they give the spot to someone else. Under the old system guys just didn't show up.

                        That's a rough stretch, maybe this is your year. I know under the old card system, we use to get picked once every 2-3 years for something. Now that its more popular and easier to put in, we have been hitting once every 4-5 years.

                        Over around 25 years we have been drawn probably 10 times. Have had some great hunts and seen some beautiful places. My favorites are just the free range hunts. Just sit in a creek bottom waiting on something to walk by.

                          I have been putting in for 10yrs and was drawn one time.

                          As far as the comment above "Now that its more popular and easier to put in, we have been hitting once every 4-5 years". I don't believe that the internet drawing system has been in use this long. I think this is only the 3rd, maybe 4th year in use.

                            3rd year. I have been drawn on hunts on the old and new system, maybe more often on the new system. I've been drawn twelve times in eleven years and my kids seven times (in one year). I have a lot of points accumulated in some hunt categories that should be easier to get (antlerless, management, feral hog) so maybe I can get drawn on one of those this year.

                              Wow! 12 times in 11 years, I guess I must not be living right.
                              I guess its luck of the draw, this is why I don't go to Vegas. I put in for many hunts and categories every year. I ended up spending a couple of hundred bucks each year. Oh well.

                                Your logic is flawed, the new system is only going on its 3rd year, I've seen the #'s chances of drawing are exponentially worse. IMO the system is broke, they need to fix it.
