Some "low priority folk" ill call them, are sticking with this hunt saying they've made up their vacation schedules now ETC...

I too woulda rather seen a full redraw completed within say 36 hours of the initial draw before vacation plans were made... it is what it is. I suppose if it really is an extra 5 hunters that's not too bad. If it ends up being 30ish guys that would be disappointing...

I look forward to the hunt and hope to have a memorable adventure!!
keep in mind you are talking about hunting 3 zones plus the park. and extra 5 or 10 guys on the hunt isnt going to make a lick of a difference on the quality of the hunt. I would be more concerned about the 300+ mule buck and 500 mule doe hunters in just WMU 118 than i would worry about the elk hunters. A full redraw is completely outlandish and has never and will never be redone unless it is a complete screw up on the draw. To expect them to screw with everyone else just to accommodate you is kind of selfish to be honest.
