Top, in my case, it really wasn't a matter of "buying" points. The Navy kept me away from home so I always put in for the points for when I could get home. I did some good hunts over the years using some points. For instance I got my Mtn Goat in 2011, I've got a bighorn ram on the wall, took a good whitetail and a good antelope.
But, I've let the elk points roll. I've hunted cows in unit 2 a lot of times since I could draw those as a 2nd choice. Unit 2 has some of the biggest bulls in the state and the highest bull/cow ratio. i'm going to make a play for the tag this season. If it doesn't come through this year, then next year is a shoe in.
