I have never understood why someone would pony up a bunch of points on a unit they don't know. Especially when they live in the state. Before I put the points up I would have scouted the area for a few seasons, talked to game wardens and biologists, done a camping trip or 2 during the season to see what it is like etc...

I have 22 points right now that I'll cash in on unit 2 when I finally have enough and I have been following my own advice. I have hunted cows there for years, know the wardens, am familiar with the area and where the waterholes and bedding areas are. When the tag pops I'll be ready to go. I live in TX now but was a CO resident for 52 years and I never put in for a tag in an area I did not know a lot about including G-13 when I got my goat.
