App Deadline

[Drhorsepower]

I found out the dead line on the 16th is 5pm....... at 7:30 But you can get points only for another week so I just added points to my small collection of them this year.

There ya go. At least you upped your chances for next year

Thought I had till midnight online. Took me 20 min to figure out why all that would come up is bonus point only. Thought I was doing something wrong. lol live and learn

You did it the hard way but you wont do thy again! Its the guys that forget every year I scratch my head at. I know a guy that forgets te deadline every year! Its amazing he remembers to put in for points. He's the one you have to worry about, it not like the app deadline changes drastically every year !

It wont happen again! lol I was out of town and really busy. Was still reading about units when I left. I usually apply in all states atleast day before deadline and now I remember why!

[Drhorsepower]

Hehe. It's funny until it happens to you right?

[Musket Man]

Im laughing, what else can I do. lol Least I got points so its not all that bad!

The MM draw odds for NV are way off. They only use data from everyone's first choice. Look at the NDOW Bonus Point Data spreadsheets and you will find that the actual odds are much different.

Ya, but I figure if all 5 of my choices were 2nd tier hunts with an average of 4%/13 pt. units, my overall odds should be about 4% for getting one of the 5. Does this make sense? Maybe not, if they are heavily chosen for other's 4th & 5th piicks?

Ya that's pretty rational thinking. Although I put in for really low %age archery antelope hunts (all <8% according to MM) this year and then after I submitted it I found those BP spreadsheets and as it turns out... I have a way better chance at drawing a couple of them than I thought. Same with one of the archery mule deer tags I applied for as my 4th choice. MM says about a 7% chance with 0 points (I drew a tag last year), but when I cross referenced it with the BP sheet... almost 28% of people with 0 points actually drew it! Fine with me... as I don't draw antelope AND mule deer. I need to have time to make at least some money over summer vacation! Just thought I'd let you know what I've found out about MM odds since I know you are worried about conflicting hunts this year. Good luck!

I dont think odds and % matter asmuch in NV because it all comes down to the random draw numbers the computer gives you. I really cant see an accurate way to predict when you will or will not draw anything.
