Oregon Seed Numbers (We Got a Close One!)

[Jaden Bales]

ODFW just posted seed numbers yesterday.



I'm 6,600 over on Premium Pronghorn (not a great unit but still exciting). I have a fair grasp on how these things work, but anyone have a take on whether I pull this? Or any other interesting app numbers to seed numbers?

You definitely have a shot. How many applied for that hunt last year?

Just over 300.

Just over 300.

With only 300 applicants you are looking very good

Really good chance you get that. I am the closest I have ever been on bighorn sheep. I’m hopeful but I expect to be burnt. I’ll know more in 2ish weeks.

High hopes, low expectations. That's my motto! Haha. Well let us know!

Really wish there wasn't a 2 week wait, but here we are. Haha

My insight is.

Why don’t they just push the dang button & release results.

If states want to hang onto my money for awhile fine.

But release the dang results so I can plan better for other states in applying in

How far over are you?

I felt pretty close at 200k over.

I am 9,514 above seed for Elk Premium, but who knows, I thought is was in good shape 4 years ago with 18,000 over but didn’t get it.

60,000.
450 resident applicants for 2 tags.

Crazy to see a draw thread and then right above it a thread for the same state to ban and outlaw all hunting….

Each year once the numbers are generated, they should flip a coin to determine whether the tags will be issued by going up or down from the seed number

Yes, let’s complicate things further.
If I had a dollar for every time I had to explain the seed numbers to people in my small circle already….I’d have $5 from yesterday alone.
