Personally, I think the yearly data should be kept in house and not made public. The Gold Rush effect is obviously still very much alive and well.

It's kinda scary what this data actually shows....this draw actually drew/recruited more hunters than YouTube ever did. I hope other states are paying attention.

There was a significant drop in the number of applications this year. I think people are finding out Mississippi in March isn't as easy as some videos can make it out to be.

When the number of non-resident turkey permit sales and March 7-day license sales doubles in about 3 years (2019-2021), and the bulk of those new non-resident hunters are going to public land, a state owes it to its resident hunters to do something about it. So no, the draw didn't increase the jump in demand we saw from 2019-2021 because it didn't even exist.
