I hear ya Kenzky I too was a priority 5 no tag. Some of my other draws seem to be taking forever to get drawn too. I'm not sure where to see the stats but are hunter numbers up or down? I've been giving some serious thought to a possible conspiracy theory: Do you think the anti's are jamming up the system? By this I mean apply and getting drawn for tags that they never intend on using just to prevent a legitamate hunter from drawing that tag and filling it. Does it sound far fetched or does it sound possible??

Cowboy - you may not be far off base. Heard that they were doing so back in the 80s.

Wonder if they could clean it up by some sort of check that the people applying actually have a registered gun ?
But that would mean less $ for them....(the Gov)

Default tracking

Or at least track it to see if the tag was actually purchased. While I realize that some legitimate hunters may not purchase some of the tags they are drawn for it may show a pattern. I'm not so sure that all legitimate hunters have a gun registered to them legally you can hunt without having to have a gun registered to you.
