Any idea how many preference points would be needed to hunt either area 66 or 67 for a bull? Guy my dad works with is trying to plan us a trip for oct 2012 ... but none of us have any points.. We all will be sending in money by april 5th this yr for a point and as well as next april..

Let me clarify my last post - the draw with 0 points isn't guaranteed, but the odds were okay for last year, especially in the later seasons.
If you pick up one point this year you will only have 1 point in next year's draw, not two. You don't get a point for applying, you get a point for failing to draw your first choice or by buying a point.
That said, unit 66 was a guaranted draw (rifle seasons) with 1 point last year so, if you all have 1 point next year you should all draw, assuming the unit doesn't have a bunch of folks with more than 1 point apply in 2012.
