I'm giving myself a 2 pt cushion to ensure that I have a tag.that's probably a pretty safe bet. Kind of what I'm thinking it will creep is well.

I have 3 points this year. Here's what I was thinking. My bro-in-law had zero. We are thinking of putting in for a hard to draw unit first choice as a group and a easier draw with second choice. What do you guys think the odds of us drawing unit 41,42,421 as a second choice group app? We are going to this unit for elk anyhow I think but hoping to get lucky and have a bonus deer tag as well.
41 took at least one point to draw last year. Also they look at everybody's first choice before looking at second choices. So it looks like you have zero chance of drawing it as a second choice. Also if your partner has 0 and you have 3 you guys go into the draw with zero points.
Regards, Branden

That blows I missed the part where you have the low total points in the group. Oh well elk it is and we will probably see a giant buck we can't shoot.

You would draw if you applied with your 3 points as your first choice. But definitely not second choice or partners with somebody that has zero points.
I know I don't have a lot of points to burn but I don't think it's worth burn in my points on that unit. I hunted it 4 years ago and seen some nice bucks but overall I enjoyed the elk hunt there and want to hunt a better unit eventually.

I was going to try and go this year, but I've decided to plan on next year. I'll admit, I liked the later dates starting this year, but its only one day earlier next year.
The last reset was 2010. I was there in 2010 and 2011, and 2011 was incredible. The first couple of years give you the best chance at getting the white stuff; the white stuff is the make or break stuff.
You'll be fine.
