Dear Sportsman,

Your application for a permit to hunt in Georgia's Alligator Quota Hunt was not selected this year. With limited hunts, obviously some applicants will not be selected. We trust you will not be discouraged and encourage you to apply again next year.

Please note that your online account has been credited with an additional priority point. Please be aware that these points can be applied to a future application to increase your priority level. This will not guarantee your selection, however, your application will be given priority over those with a lower priority level.

I guess I have three points now!  Last year 83% of those with two points were drawn.

That's the problem with preference point systems.  If it's anything like some of the high demand western tags the points required to draw goes up every year.  What are the maximum number of points anyone can have in the gator sweepstakes?  Sounds like at least the 17% of people who didn't draw with 2 points last year are still ahead of you.  Once they all have drawn a tag, then all the people in your point pool will start having a chance.  
Keep at it though, your name will come up eventually!

Yep 1 of our guys here at Muzzy did not draw with 3 pts this year!!  Some areas have higher application numbers then others, so it varies from region to region as well.  I drew Zone 1 last year with 2, but was 1 of only a few to draw that zone with only 2.  No areas are undersubscribed, but some do have lower applications and are easier to draw.  
Yep, hate that CO preference point system!  Now they are limiting tags to only 7% for NR so that bumped my area up to 14pts.  I have 11 for elk and 3 for deer now, guess I will end up taking them to the grave!!!!  Mark

Maybe there is still a chance!

My brother and I got the same e-mail.  I've applied three years in a row and haven't been selected.  It's not like there's a shortage of gators on Lake Seminole.  We need more tags!  Make it like squirrel hunting.    Tge

They just posted the list and my name was on it!!!!  I guess that computer glitch did send everyone a rejection notice even if they were drawn.

Congrats buddy!! I didn't make it this year. Next year for sure as I'll have three reject points. If you need some help let me know.
