Cubing points

[trophyhunt]

I like the idea of cubing points at 25, you'd think that would help top point holders.  That would give me 24,389 points for quality and bull elk, mud flow here I come... 

Quit trying to reward max points.... and screw the new kids.... If you love being at the front of the line head to those states where they guarantee it.... I've got max moose and I'm asking the state every year to get rid of cow hunts....

Quit being selfish Jerry!   We'll all die with points in the barrel.

LOL

I agree. And I've got 27 moose points. But if they make my odds better, other people's odds get worse. The best thing to do, especially with OIL species, is eliminate points. And also non residents shouldn't be able to apply.

You feel bad about having better odds than others?? You must be a saint!! Is it taboo to think you should draw before some guy who put in for his first year after waiting almost 3 decades?  I guess I’m an azz then, cause I think the higher point holders should draw first most the time.  Notice I didn’t use the word deserve, and yes, I’ll feel the same if I ever zero out.

But there's just not enough permits for everyone with the most points to ever get drawn. I don't think it's fair to exclude everyone else.

I feel the advantage I have with squaring the points is enough.

It would be interesting to know how many high point holders have dropped out over the years, whatever the reason.  And how many still applying.  Low points probably have us out numbered.

How many freezers full of moose meat do you have?

Nah I’m no saint but I do know unless we recruit another generation to love this like we do hunting will die with us.  The bigger picture is beyond one last hunt for me… I guess I can hope for a terminal tag at the end. 

My freezers are empty of moose… that was years ago… but I also traveled to hunt since I can’t seem to draw here.  Waiting on Washington will kill us all.

I drew a quality bull tag and ended up up eating the tag. Played the raffle game and won. I’ve also drawn a quality deer tag and consider myself blessed to have drawn them.

If I drew a bull tag, a moose tag, my wife drew a moose tag and a quality bull tag and my son in law drew a moose tag I would be worried about being struck by lightning not about drawing another tag.

I think if you draw an oil.....any oil, your out of all oils for 5 years.

As a hunter education instructor I wish they would get rid of points. Give everyone the same chance every year. We need to recruit new hunters or our heritage will die.

My wife also drew a rifle rut tag for elk, the first year they gave out a muzzy tag for white river she drew, drew forks elk when it was around, and drew the late buck tag for the blues last year. 😁. Drives me nuts how lucky she is!

next time we meet up, I’ll bring you some moose meat!  I need to make room for what my wife draws next!!  🤣

Don't tease me Jerry.  I'll come down anytime you want to clean a freezer.
