I took a look at the draw statistics last month. How do you build 34 points when the point system has not been going that long? I heard he got drawn this year and got a nice bull. I figure I will start planning now and feel lucky if I am fortunate to get drawn. I don't expect to get drawn for a few more years, but maybe my luck will change. I will take another cow tag or my first bull permit and be happy with that. I don't have near the points in those categories, but I will be happy with whatever; if anything. I wouldn't waste 17 points on a Margret tag either. I'd probably end up with a rag horn 4 x 4 with hoof rott. I guess I will head east.

Turning in poachers just like you did when you got your 10 points.  In the past you were able to spread them around different categories and stuff too.  Not sure if they changed it or not, but you were in the past able to exceed the maximum points that you could have acquired via not drawing tags. A guy I work with did the same and put them in Elk (before they gave your points to every category for the species! Lucky guy!), I think he has somewhere in the neighborhood of 24 points.

And still hasn't drawn or is waiting for the elk to bounce back in Wa. :chuckle:
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.
