30, all for turning in poachers.  One of these years I will throw them into the hat for a good archery tag.

will have 15 points next year, haven't been lucky enough to turn in any poachers so like most lots of patience in the last decade and a half. I'm starting to think that maby a certain percent of special tags should be set aside for hunters with 10 or more points. I know you are saying i wont think that way when i cash in my points, but think it would be better for those of us who have been waiting sooooooo long. Just a thougt.

14 points in Washington. 11 in Oregon--too many people in our pool to maybe ever draw the Oregon Wenaha with 1 tag given out every other year to a nonresident.

8 this year, will have 9 for 2010.  Not even close to getting excited for the tags I put in for...  :bash:

9 points and hate hearing about guys with 1 or 2 drawing the tags i'm after.  If I had 11 points in Oregon I would draw the Mt. Emily rifle tag NOW!!!  I guided in that unit and if you know what you are doing and glass the right area you will shoot a 350 plus bull.

I'm not much on rifle hunting for big game, especially elk.  I save the rifle for coyotes.  I will probably put in for an archery bull hunt in the blues next year since Margaret and Toutle have gone way down hill.

its too bad you couldnt put in and say i want to use 20 points or something, i would imagine 20 would just about guarantee you an archery tag, it would be nice if you could save a couple

Well about the next best thing to that would be for him to put in with a partner and split the points. Yeah it would be kind of a shame to use 30 points for a permit that could probably be drawn with only 10.
