Yes... Been applying the last couple years for points.

U.P. bownut wrote:I am no expert but I prefer first season. No hounds to deal with for a week and for me they seem to come to baits the best early. Also if you draw a "first season" tag you can hunt all 3 "seasons". The down side to that is it takes more points to draw a first season tag then it dose for 2nd or 3rd. When you apply for tags you have two choices for hunts. You can apply for, as an example, first season Carney area as your first choice and your second can be third season Red Oak area or what ever combo you want. You can also chose to just buy a point. I normally apply for first season Carney area and my second choice is buy a point. Its relatively cheap at like 4 dollars (I think). To me for that money I'd pile up points and if somebody decided to do a bear hunt in a few years your all set.

If anyone has any questions they would like me to ask I would be glad to help. I don't speak with him every day, but I can certainly get an answer for you.

Good to know. Thanks Bridge.
Do you know what unit he guides in?
