The non resident waterfowl draw took place yesterday and our group crapped out. It really sucks when you look forward in anticipation to hunting both pheasant and ducks for 5 days. I guess I shouldn't complain. It's still going to be a great trip but from the time you leave you have 365 days to plan and look forward to doing it again and you get kicked in the mouth. I'm not sure I'm too thrilled with the preference point system. Sounds like those people who are first time applicants or those who didn't get drawn the year before are virtually assured a draw. I'm assuming with all the rain the great pot holes we hunted last year are going to be teaming with ducks......
