Yeah that would be nice. I wish wdfw would allow you to transfer points to immediate family

Terrible, terrible idea. Then those points would never go away. Would make things worse, not better. No worries though, it would never happen.

Instead of the points dropping out of the draw when someone quits hunting or passes away which would help overall draw odds. The points would get added to someone else's application which would create even higher point totals and decrease odds for everyone else.

I want bobcat to respond but ok. You guys are taking what I said to literally. I was referring to an able bodied father giving his son his points for a chance at an animal. This state is so far gone, opportunities for youngsters are slim.

Webb genius idea. My wife, mother, both sisters, brother who doesn’t hunt and my kids could all transfer points to me 7 extra points every year... I might actually draw a “quality” tag
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

No it’s my bad. I should have been more clear. I just figured it was obvious

Grundy answered the question exactly as I would have. I don't agree with transferring points to anyone. However along the same lines that you're thinking of, I think it would be okay if a parent had the option to let a son or daughter (under 16 years old or whatever the definition is for "youth" in this state) shoot an animal using the parent's special permit that they drew. I think there is a state that allows this, can't remember which one. (maybe Oregon?)

Also I don't agree that opportunities for kids are "slim." Tons of special opportunities for kids that weren't options when I was a kid. My daughter was 12 last year and drew a youth antlerless elk permit and got her first elk, and then later got a 3 point buck mule deer during the general season.

Yeah thats exactly my thoughts. As for the opportunities I’m referring to the devastation of the wolves. There won’t be any good hunting in 10 years when my children are of age unless something is done about it.

This is what i was talking about as well. An adult mother, or father gifting there points to there youth child, But i agree it will probably not ever happen. Now on the other side of that coin, what will likely happen is that my son, and i will put in together to combine points, draw 2 antlerless permits, and one will go to waste, taking an opportunity away from someone that would love a chance to harvest a cow (possibly a youth hunter)

Why would one go to waste? Why couldn't both of you kill a cow?
