One other thing to think about a group hunt application is that all of you will get the tags or none of you will. If your applying for a unit that needs preference points, DOW will take the guy with the least points and use that as a baseline to approve or dissaprove. Same with resident/non-resident. If the unit has very limited tags, it's pretty tough to draw the whole group unless the whole group has a bunch of points built up. I hunt with 4 other guys and we have found that it's much easier to draw individually. Of course our area usually has leftover tags, so drawing what we want is no problem.
