I was just wondering how many of the hunters in Utah know about a loophole being used by many that draw tags on limited entry units.
Many of the top Bonus Point holders in Utah's draw system turn their tags back in to the DWR after they draw, but before the hunts. These guys go out and scout the area all summer and early Fall, but if they don't find what they want they simply turn in their tag before the hunt and thus get their bonus points reinstated.
These guys are guaranteed to draw every year with their high bonus points. The guys on bonus point levels below them are not moving up because the points were reinstated to the guy who turns his tag back in. Just seems a little unfair to the rest who are waiting to draw the tags.
