I know CC hits can go on for a while but my question is, is there any rhym or reason to UT?s draw? Do they do all deer first then elk, or some kind of other pattern.
From the 2018 guidebook page 15:
Understand the drawing
order
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-18
A better understanding of the drawing
order may affect which permits you decide to
apply for. Big game permits are drawn in the
following order:
First Buck deer (multi-season premium
limited-entry, premium limited-entry,
multi-season limited-entry, limited-entry,
CWMU, cactus and management buck
deer)
Second Bull elk (multi-season limited-
entry, limited-entry and CWMU)
Third Buck pronghorn (limited-entry
and CWMU)
Fourth Once-in-a-lifetime permits
Fifth General buck deer (Lifetime
License holders)
Sixth General buck deer (Dedicated
Hunters)
Seventh General buck deer (youth)
Eighth General buck deer
Last Youth any bull elk
Because of the order in which permits are
drawn, you will
not
be included in the drawing
for a once-in-a-lifetime permit if you draw any
of the following permits:
Buck deer (multi-season premium
limited-entry, premium limited-entry,
multi-season limited-entry, limited-entry,
CWMU, cactus or management buck deer)
Bull elk (multi-season limited-entry,
limited-entry or CWMU)
Buck pronghorn (limited-entry or CWMU)
