I burned 66 Oregon points the last 3 years, glad to exit there! But still have 347 left in about 10 states. Trying to burn some every year. Sad but strategy is mostly based on which state I think will screw us nonresident point holders next. I am set in Wyoming. My guess is Colorado & Nevada are the most at risk right now. The other states can't get much lower as far as NR quotas go. So planning to burn 25 CO elk points in 2022. Then 16 CO deer points in 2023. It's rough to get rid of them as I've found compromised when I draw even two hunts the same year, even if the hunt periods overlap nicely. I can't devote enough time to scout and hunt. So I just won't do it. Failed to draw any western tags this year, but more than made up for it with two slammer special whitetail hunts here at home, harvesting two great bucks.

I would not like to be a newbie getting in the game at this point. And see myself as a prime target for states to screw, watering down my investment. But I can't burn these fast enough. A bit concerning is my age (61), health and declining fitness level. Wheels are slowly falling off.
