Applied this year again too. At $11 and change an entry, it's a no brainer.....its less than I spend AFTER declaring that "this is the last one, then I gotta go" 
Annual PA donation....

I am 64 ,born there, moved away at 21 in 77 But My Soc Security # is from there , Would I have a better chance as a non Resident ,just a thought ! IU have never applied as I have Hunted Elk in Arizona and new Mex. many times ..................BOB!
Residents and non residents have always had the same chance of drawing. I believe, its still the same.

August 15th is going to be a pretty crappy day after I find out I pulled this tag and have to cancel all my other hunting plans. Good luck to everybody else.

PA's game commission must have lost my number cause I didn't get a call.
Anyone a lucky holder of a PA Elk tag?

No tag for me, just an accumulated point.

I couldn’t find the winners when I googled it earlier but my points went up 1 so I figured I didn’t get drawn.

I know a few people who have drawn but they were high point holders. I have a friend with 17 points that didn’t draw again this year.
I don’t think the odds increase by applying for archery. The quota is very low. Last year it was only like 5 tags for archery and a boat load of applicants. I saw an odds breakdown somewhere before. If I find it again I will post it.

This article has some odds breakdowns in it. They are not very good.

Not true preference point system. Each year you don't draw your name goes in an extra time following year.
Reality is many manufacturers people with max points in drawing will never ever draw.
It is like hitting the lottery. You can hit it on your first year applying.
