Looks like Gooch Unit A didn't change that much.
I don't know the official numbers but that sounds about what has looked to be there every year I have been to the draw.

Tigrett seems awful high?
Never been there though.

Good stuff, I like looking at data like this. I do not have a dog in the fight as I rarely duck hunt, but I have been reading and keeping up with the TWRA duck draw this year. Very interesting. I would like to know normal applicant numbers (5 year average) like you eluded to. Good luck everyone with your draw.

Thanks for posting I thought I sent in for AEDC but when the results were in I looked all it said was I put in for ELK and duck blind. Anyone know if AEDC will have leftovers like they have in the past. I wanted to cam there this year.

These seem low to me. Slightly lower than the traditional draw (Old Hickory). Maybe a lot of guys shifted west. For the west side guys, how do these numbers compare to your traditional numbers?

Tigerett is much higher in my opinion. A lot of people also put in as singles instead of with a group to increase the chances they drew it.

It's amazing that a few of those WMA's likely have more applicants than the number of ducks that will be killed there in a 60 day season....

Looked to me that Cheatham was about the same, maybe just a little higher. Old Hickory 1 seemed to be down some and Old Hickory 2 about the same. Can't speak on anything else.

Camden, Big Sandy, Gin Creek, and Harmons Creek have all been in the same draw in the past, adding those numbers together, it looks like up about 5-700 over last years.

Yep. Cheatham usually averages about 1050. Up a little.

I couldn't believe Tigrett outnumbered Reelfoot.


And that number doesn't reflect the number of people in the draw who may have been included on one ticket.

I aint sure if these numbers are from a few years ago. Tigrett had over 3,000 or 3,500 last year I thought
I have gone every year since 1996, I think the record turn out for Tigrett was around 1500 several years ago. The past few years with dry seasons, Gooch having water or crops. Tigrett usually has 500-800 depending on the weather each year.
