A) There will be those who get lucky in a random system, BUT there are those who get lucky in pure preference as well. Get in in year one, get lucky and draw 201 CO, drop a tier while max points is only 1 and you have zero etc. etc. It definitely happened. The worst part is, if you entered the system too late, you will NEVER be able to draw a lot of those tags. Is that really more fair?For example: my dad drew a unit 40 deer tag in Idaho 3 times in 7 years, how is that fair.
Buddy drew a certain bull tag twice in 4 years, wife hasn’t drawn it 0 for 5…..
Now with a 5 year wait that gives someone else a chance to draw that tag….
I totally think Random is the way to go, just longer waiting periods for both residents and non-residents

B) You’re not looking at their entire draw lifetimes. 10 years isn’t much of a draw history. Yes, in a random system some will be more lucky than others, BUT over 40-50 year period, it will be more even than over or 4 or 10 year period.
