New point rules???

I wanted to get some feed back on this years draw. If I read it right, you lose your points even if you draw the last choice on your application? It doesn't matter if your last choice is a general season tag? I hope I am wrong cause there are going to be some pissed off hunters who lose a decade of points just to hunt a general season tag.
 
The general draw is a different draw than the LE draw.So you won't lose your LE points if you draw a general tag the way I understand it.
 
If you have preference points from not drawing your first GS deer choice then you will now lose those if you draw any of your GS deer choices, including your last.

As someone else said the change was to close the loophole in the GS deer draw and the LE Buck Deer stays the same.
 
Ya, your LE deer won't be affected... but you will loose all General deer points if you draw a General deer tag, regardless of the choice number.
 
Wow, have I been out of the loop that long? Now, there are general season points separate from the LE point system? When did that start?
 
Yes, you can put in for LE deer, general deer, and dedicated hunter all in the same year... But you can only draw one of them (you might be able to draw LE deer and dedicated hunter in the same year, but I'm not positive about that).

As far as I know, they do the LE drawing first, then they do dedicated hunter draw, and then the general deer draw.
 
delmag,
you haven't hunted a general season in 7 yrs? Man, you must have terrible luck or the state of Utah hates you. Wish you luck this year! Hope you get a big one to make up for it...
 
LE points have been awarded separate from the general season deer permits for a lot longer than 7 years. Max points for LE deer in Utah is over 20.
