[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5155412, member: 1409"] When I was drawn in 2016 (which may have been the very worse year ever for these hunts?), I believe I had 13 or 14 preference points. I had been putting in since the first year of the hunts. Although I was disappointed with my experience there, there were really no other TWRA WMA quota hunts found appealing, so nothing lost (to me). As to the other two friends hunting with me, they said they would have rather not forfeited all those other quota hunts over the years, just for this one trip to PI. Neither of them saw a deer while hunting. I was lucky in seeing a 130-class 3 1/2-yr-old 10-pointer, but unlucky in recovering him. That happened early the 1st of three mornings. Because of my trying to find him, I didn't really hunt much again until the 3rd morning. Didn't see a deer on the 3rd morning, and left the island around mid-day with no plans to ever return. For those who get drawn, I [U]highly[/U] recommend your camping out on the island. IMO, the daily coming & going drive thru downtown Memphis is just too unpredictable. [/QUOTE]
