Re: Preferrence Points

[JimmyA]

Money is a little tight this year. May not buy points for deer and elk in Utah because I also need to buy a license along with the point fees.

Anyone happen to know if I would maintain my current points if I skip buying them this year? Or how many years I can go without buying them before I lose what I have already bought?

Thanks for the help.

I have a point for antlerless deer and I haven't put in for 10 years for it so you should be good!

 

[roadrunner]

Your point status will not change by skipping a year, other than not gaining another.

On another note, as a NR, I would sell my points in a heartbeat if I could...

 

[hornkiller]

What you working with roadrunner?

 

[Gator]

Yea how many points U got RR

Used to be if you timed the purchase of your hunting license right you could use it two years to get points. Just need a valid upon applying. It worked this year for me to apply for expo tags. Used the one I bought last year..

What you working with ridgerunner?

You’re better off sending ridgerunner a private message as he hasn’t posted on this thread yet. He may not even have any points.

Something to think about. 12/13 years ago they allowed non residents to start applying for all species. When you look at the point pool for each species there is a log jam at that number. Look at antelope for example. There is only 150ish NR with 13 or more points and 1400 with 12. When NR could only apply for one deer/elk/antelope and one OIL not many NR chose antelope. If you are at that number or above you really don't want to skip a year. You will never get enough points for the top units but you could take a huge step backwards for more attainable units if you get behind that group

This is still true, if you bought your license now and put in you would be good for next year as long as you didn't wait till the end of the application process again. Something to think about anyway.

Stemming off of this subject can you purchase points without a license after the application process has closed ?

 

[tkjwonta]

In Utah, the preference point deadline is an extra week or two after the drawing deadline, but you still have to have a license either way.

Let me know if you need some help with the $ for the points. I will help you out if you’re buying your license. I believe deadline is tomorrow.
