Yeah it was 14 for me. I know guys in it even longer. There has to be a way to get long term guys their permit
I was going to put in for it this year and missed the deadline. Next year will be my first year. I guess if I never get one, oh well. At least I'm gonna try. Congrats to you man! That will be an amazing hunt!!
Congrats! :z-winnersmiley: I hope you have a safe, enjoyable hunt. Its beautiful country up there
Congrats! You going with bow or rifle?
Congrats to you good luck. My favorite meat, big Ol Moose steak.

Congrats on getting drawn and good luck in Sept!
We expect some real good photos. ;D
Congrats! I used to put in but finally decided Maine's set up is a racket. However, you can't draw if you don't apply.

^ yes to this!
My Buddie has been applying for a Bull tag since the inception of drawing,and never got one.
You now need to rush to the nearest store and buy a lottery ticket :you_rock

I know people who have gotten it first year, guys who have never drawn and guys who it seems that someone in their household draws every year. One thing I think they need to do is limit one per household. Every year without fail you see what appears to be 3 people in one household all get drawn. Anything over 20 years those guys need to be alloted a certain number of permits until all longtimers get drawn
The way it's set up now you get additional chances for every year you're not drawn.
In 2012, a new "bonus point" system began awarding long-term entrants even more chances to win in the lottery. Instead of earning a single extra chance in the lottery for every year their name doesn't get drawn, entrants earn one chance during their first five years, two chances for years 6-10, three chances for years 11-15 and 10 chances per year for every year in excess of 15.
Still not a sure thing for those who have been applying for a long time, but your chances get better the longer you don't get drawn.
Freakin awesome!
Congrats and good luck to you. I think I had 24 or 25 points going into this years lottery.
