I’d say to start in the southeast corner.
The draw is the month of April. It normally ends April 26ish.
If you have any questions about how to actually apply feel free to ask. With two points you’re going to draw.

I’m interested in this. Would love to take my son(16) one day. What type stuff you look for scouting than you would here? Do not go stomping through small wooded draws in agricultural areas. You will push deer out and they will seek cover in the next draw which may be 3 miles away. Stay on the edges.

That depends on the unit.
I have about 60 hunters apply each season. That includes rifle, archery, muzzle-loader and youth rifle. We had 3 not draw in 2020 and 4 not draw in 2021. Of those 7 that didn't draw 1 from each year didn't apply correctly.

You will hate AL deer hunting if you hunt KS!! This. I have a lease in Alabama and have gone to Kansas the last five years (As Keith said, the SE corner). The number and size of free ranging deer you will see will make you not care about hunting around home. The first year in Kansas, I killed a 10-point that green scored 174. I killed a 10 point the following year. This year, I was watching a 13-point (guessing at 170") we had pictures of at 325 yards when a 8-point walked across the bottom of bino field-of-view. It green scored 146 and some change. The point is, after hunting Kansas, I have little desire to chase deer here. It's like I come home in the middle of December ready for Turkey season. I'm not going next year for this very reason.

If you have any questions about how to actually apply feel free to ask. With two points you’re going to draw. Thanks and will do. Hunting the west and Midwest certainly puts a damper on my Alabama season but I still enjoy hunting both. I’m still researching units and WIHA areas. Like you said with two points I’m very confident we’ll get a tag so just really trying to hone in on a unit or two currently.

Of those 7 that didn't draw 1 from each year didn't apply correctly. 2/8 in our group (me included) didn’t draw this past year. We were the only two that didn’t put in as a group. Doing that this year. Going out there in May to kill a couple of Rios.

We have over 20,000 acres of land to hunt in 3 different units so that helps us a lot. Applying as a group certainly helps. If one draws then the entire group draws. Now that you have a point you are guaranteed a tag. (Unless they have changed that rule). If I remember correctly; if you have a point and the others in the group don’t you can’t apply with them. (They may have changed that as well)

Does anyone know if peoples preference points in your group affects the draw? Ie: 4 people apply as a group and all but one of them have some preference points, do they take in consideration the groups total points or the person with lowest amount of points?
Does that make sense? People with points can apply in a group. However, all members of the group’s points will go to zero. This is straight from KDWPT.
