Margaret/Toutle Bull Tags

WSU. Where in hedouble hockey sticks do you see a statement from me about precluding the younger generation ? Good Lord. Read my last post better for crying out loud. Does it not sound like I have mentored my son { hey, the younger generation } and consider him above me for better opportunities ? And I've also mentored other young guns in the hunting world. I take great offense to your statement. I started this post by simply asking what points members on here have had when they have drawn these tags and of course it gets jacked all around, getting way off topic. I love this site, I really do. Seems like terrific folks, one and all and would be cool to someday meet all of you. But this feels like an effort in frustration for me on this one. I think from now on I will really think twice before I post and or respond. This sucks.

Elksnout i was not attacking you, just posting my opinion... I have 12 points and have never drawn the tags you are also puting in for right along side of me... I realize i may not draw them with 20 points but there is hope. I really look at our system just like the others without points because we are still 100 percent random...

I had 4 points when I drew my any bull tag...     (but not close to 3000+ some odd apps)  Just checked that out... A guy a few camps down had 13 points and drew same year... (he missed 3 bulls)  It's all pretty much luck.... So do the points system work like this: I have 1 point and I apply next year.. My name goes in the "hat" twice???

If you have one point now, when you apply again you will gain 1 more point, so you will go into the drawing with two. Then that is squared, so your name will go in the hat 4 times.

Wow... Thanks... Never knew that.. So my odds are better already!!!!  Think I'll put in for antlerless....

 It took me 5 points just to get drawn for a Coweeman cow tag! Hope I get one, it'll be my first.

Good luck!! I've gotten two cow tags.. 1 with no points.... The other with 1 point....

I poorly worded my post.  I was not trying to state (as I did) that you don't care about the younger generation.  I was simply trying to state that with guaranteed tag systems, the younger generation will get screwed and is guaranteed to not have the same opportunity.  I was mainly referring to your statement "whats wrong with us older guys getting those tags."  The thing that is wrong with it is that, in a max points system, it means the younger generation cannot get those tags and will not get those tags.  I'm sure you and your son have a great time hunting, and we all wish more parents would be like you and get their kids out hunting with them.  I apologize for poorly wording my post and for offending you.

I want to be that guy with 3 pts and draw a Marget tag..

[lokidog]

I drew it for archery in 2001 with one point, 7 tags that year.   

Funny thing was I was just trying to get another preference point that year.....  Still trying for it again!
