I started thinking ahead when I got my unsuccessful letter last spring. I took all the limited entry elk info of the Utah wildlife page, and made myself a spread sheet with bonus points, tags, and everything else I wanted to know. Now I have to think over the truth, but most likely I will join the dedicated hunters this year, put in for a rifle elk tag somewhere like beaver or boulder (I want the Pahvant but we all know that is a long ways out there I have 8 points). Then I will put in for mountain goats with six points, and get my seventh one next spring I bet. To tell the truth I doubt I get anything worth getting, except maybe a southern region general buck. I got a 20 inch 4x4 down there in an hour this year with my bow.
