I'm having a problem with the party system when applied to an extremely limited draw permit. Why does FWP allow the party draw for low permit number areas, specifically deer? mtmuley
 
I'm not sure how the MT party tags works exactly, but I presume that all the applicants in a "party" get one shot in a drawing, vs all of them having their own chance if they applied separately? Seems like the odds of drawing as a party would at least 50% less than as an individual, yet if they draw they take twice as many permits. IMO, that seems like a pretty fair trade off for the sucky draw odds.
 
While that may be true, if a party draws, 3 tags are gone from the quota in the mule deer buck area I apply for. If several party applicants draw before individuals behind them, odds decrease dramatically. I am most concerned about areas with VERY low permit numbers. mtmuley
 
Interesting issue!
Doesn't have to be very limited either to impact
An idiot buddy of mine told his friend and Packer clan 10 hunters? Who never shoot
Elk to apply to the unit 'he hunts' .......where he goes with me.
Well guess whose buddy drew along with all the cheeseheads ! All of them
all draw!?
