I drew it 2 years ago for the archery hunt. It was my 2nd time to apply for exotic archery. Since TPWD dropped the archery hunt, I didn't even bother to apply this year.

Probably not what you want to hear, but I drew it this year with 2 points.

Draw odds went way down with the new online system, way more people applying. Not good news for some of us guys with lots of preference points, its caused points to deflate in value.

I don't think the points system works at all. I've more stories of people with only 1 or2 points win a big drawn than the other way. soap

I drew it this year with 21 points - finally. They way the system has always worked, it's possible for a guy with 0 points to draw while a guy with several points to not draw. Just gotta be lucky.
