Well the guys from "on foot films" must be poachers then What about the other portion of my statement ? Would you really feel cheated ? If so I think your putting to much weight into these draw tagsJust my
It's not that I would personally feel cheated. The people it would hurt are the new hunters. How would it be fair for a kid putting in for a youth hunt with 20 points, while everyone else in that pool has maybe two or three points at the most? It just wouldn't be fair to put certain people at the head of the line. They didn't put in for permits all those years, holding out for nothing but the best, and earn those points. As I said, only the people who eaarned the points deserve to use them. Nobody else.Now if you do want to share your points that you've accumulated with someone, that's easy to do. Apply with them as a partner. That's how they are "selling" points in Oregon. They don't transfer the points to someone else, that would be impossible, there is no way to do that. They simply apply as partners. So if one person has 20 points and the other has none, they go in with the average of those points which would be 10. That's how they do it in Oregon, and that's exactly the same way you could do it here. The difference is in Oregon they are preference points, not bonus points like we have here. So in Oregon you can be fairly certain when you are going to draw and when you are not going to draw, unlike here.

Pretty certain that little Johny isn't getting willed any youth bonus points from his 80 year old grandpa.........
I guess I view points as property..I pay for them..they accumulate over the years (unlike the lottery)They even have my social contracted to them for crying out loud...

Even if that's not the case, my point is still valid. Doesn't matter which category they apply in. A person's points should be earned, not given to them by somebody else.

Because an 80 year old man can't purchase youth points, thats why not.
