ARCHERY-would it be possible to draw unit 61 archery with only 6 preference points. or will it take 7. how much will it be next year.
 
Preference point book says it took at least 7 points for both res and nonres last fall. Doesn't look good for 6 points.

You can do some math and determine a very good guess as to whether it will go up or not... the data is free on the DOW website....
 
Actually, when you look at the raw data, it appears that with residents everyone with 8 points got picked and only 50% with 7 points got picked. If the same people apply this year, people with 7 points will have a 1 in 3 chance of getting drawn.

For nonresidents, the raw data indicates that this year it actually took 8 points to be drawn (not 7). If the same people apply next year it will take 8 points and only 50% of those with 8 points will be picked.

I checked and the above numbers are accurate. You can figure
the points will go up AT LEAST one point per year in the future,
for res and nonres. This is exactly WHY the system must be
changed at the comm meeting in Grand Junction May 6. Would
anyone like to project the points in 10 years? I dont want
to see 20 yearsbecause it may take 40 points. This is the
system that DOW says is working just fine. UGH Roy in
