shedhead, you lucky s.o.b.
! I hunt zone one and have been trying to draw a moose permit for that zone....finding the moose is not the problem for me, it's getting a tag!
To give an idea of the odds.....my grandfather, father, and uncle have applied every year since the lottery was started (not sure exactly when it began). My grandfather and father each got drawn once, but my uncle has never been drawn. My cousin and I have been applying for over 10 years and neither of us have been drawn yet. It's not easy unless you're really lucky!
