He went from bad to worse and moved to CA. Lol Just kidding...Not really.;)

Yep, sjsmallfield you are right!LOL! These state taxes are just killing me! Ha!

Drhorsepower...Reno has really grown and changed with the growth. I loved living there, but it is not the same anymore. We moved to Jackson to be closer to family and get me off the road. Forty years on the road is enough! I do miss the hunting opportunities though!

The same is true in Washington. Personally I like NV's system. If you are not willing to burn points on a less desireable unit, only put down one choice. The draw odds are increased because when you do that your name is out of the pool for everyone applying for all other units.

In Washington, you have two "Quality" choices and 4 "Mature Bull" choices (same for deer). You have to buy your application seperately for each. I think it was $6.50 for "Mature Bull" and $13.50 for Quality Bull this year. This gets you in the draw only. You still have to buy your tag and pick your weapon and side of state before you apply. It is a jacked up system, and you are correct that it is hardly worth putting in for, given your odds and the cost even as a resident of applying for all the species.
