Limited Entry Hunting Opinions

Personally, I think the Limited Entry Hunting Draw System works... seriously, "How could the government get away with a corrupt system?"

Sure, sometimes the government is not straight forward in their dealings, but the truth always comes to the surface. The LEH draw system has been in place since 1993, surely if there were dishonest workings they would have surfaced by now!

Tell us what you think! Did you get a draw this year? How long has it been since you received one?

We (my partners and I) have been diligent in putting in for the draws for years. We have until the 2012 season always put in for the same areas.

UPDATE: We didn't receive any limited entry hunting moose draws for this season. We will be heading to Northern BC for the "Any Bull Moose - Archery Only Season". This particular season is only 8 days in length... but it is during the first week of October. What does that mean to us... PRIME TIME! Peak of the rut!

We have studied the numbers, watched our success or failures in the draw... and it comes right down to a gamble.

Yup... just like gambling... you put your money down and hope your number comes up. On occasion is does... then Yahoo!

Of course there are the years following when you don't get drawn. This is because of the enhanced odds system, even this seems to work. When we are drawn, for the next three or four years we aren't. That doesn't stop us from studying the numbers and trying to second guess the system though. We do try...

The system sucks.Since 1984 I have put in for moose in 5-1 or 3-30 every year and have never been drawn. But I know people who put in the same place and get pulled EVERY year. It's not a lottery at all.

Ya it works; I my self got a buffalo draw back in 1997 in 7-52 I think. Right at May's Kitchen in Pink Mountain area.

The first morning out pow! A 654 lb buffalo. It worked for me, I seen some of the biggest buffalo that has ever been seen 3 out of 200 hundred were so big I would have not shot them out of fear of not being able to kill it with a 338 cal!

Two out of the three had a head as big as the front end of my dodge p/u I... kid you not! OMG!
