So my buddy and I are planning our 3rd trip out west to chase elk with a bow. We both got our vacation picks in and are off from work Sept 17 until the end of that month. We've never hunted the 2nd half of the season and we are hoping it won't be as warm and that the elk will be more vocal. We've banked 3 preference points so far and would like to unload them. Did I understand the regs correctly when I read that if we are drawn for our 2nd, 3rd, or 4th choices that our PPs will not become void and that we will actually receive another PP? Do many people pick an unattainable unit as their 1st choice knowing that they won't draw and then hopefully be selected for their 2nd or 3rd choice in order to keep building their points?
Will 3 points really put us in a better unit over an OTC unit? FYI - We've hunted unit 15 both times and were not impressed.
