Deer Tag Draw Results Why You Did or Didn’t Get Drawn for a 2014 California Deer Tag Photo by Connie Johle For many there was a look of dispointment on your face when you found out you didn’t get that coveted deer tag. But for some lucky hunters the grin was huge, just like the big buck you hope to put a tag on this coming season. Again, the G3 Goodale Buck Hunt drew the most interest with 5,093 marking their application for that hunt. Those 735 hunters with maximum preference points (12) went after the 32 tags. That left more than 5,000 trying for the three remaining tags in the random drawing. This year there were Hunt Code Hunt Tag Description only four other hunts that wouldn’t guarantee you would draw a tag even if you had the maximum preference points of 12. Those hunts were the G37 Anderson Flat Buck, G39 Round Valley Late Season Buck, M3 Doyle Muzzleloading Rifle Buck, and M9 Devil’s Garden Muzzleloading Rifle Buck. So use the stats in the lists on this and the next page to see what hunts might give you the best luck in 2015 for one of the tags in the Big Game Draw. Someone has to get them, why not you?!?
