Hoping for similarly good news though my application is for a zone on the west side (3 I think) so it's closer to home.  I can be parking my rig about 60-70 min. after leaving my eastern NE home.

Yes, it looks like I did!  Almost was hoping I wouldn't LOL.  I have muskox logistics on my brain, very complicated so good thing my buddy Charlie knows his farm so all's I have to do is by a plane ticket and show up!

Woohoo!  My brother and I got drawn too.  Our outfitter said we were the only bowhunters with 2 points that had booked with him this year.

Steve, know what you're talking about. I called the outfitter as soon as we found out we drew and he said we were darn lucky to draw zone 5 with 2 points.

Big-1, Iowa tags, once every 3 years guaranteed ~what-ever~, AK ox tag, probably once in a lifetime, very low odds to draw.

The only big deal about the Iowa WT tag to me is my buddy Charlie has a farm there.  WT are a dime a dozen, LOL.

No big Bucks in S.E. Iowa so you won't want to hunt down this way.

I think your outfitters are just getting you pumped up...I think nearly everyone with 2 points drew. I always count on the 3rd year and have been drawing Iowa tags for years.

12 years ago when we 1st started going there, I drew 3 years in a row. Those days are gone :-(
