$20 gamble for $2k in meat is worth it

I apply for a lot of hunts, but VA just doesn't seem worth it. I don't think a NR is even guaranteed one of the 5 tags.

I used to live in VA so I apply but I know I will never draw

I hear that Kentucky's poor management of strip mine habitat has led to a bunch of elk in Va. and Tn. and the demise of KY elk hunting.

I applied every year they have opened it, i know the odds are slim, but i throw me and my son's name in, who knows might get lucky some day, but i doubt it lol

6 Tags total, 1 goes to RMEF for raffle. Of the remaining 5, Nonresidents can only draw one, but are not guaranteed the one.
32k apps in 2022, 24k in 2023. Good luck.

Yikes... I don't like my odds! Lol.

evaluated like poker odds, the hunt should be worth $480k+
definitely not worth the $20 bet...
