[QUOTE="SO92, post: 1567257, member: 100430"] This is a great topic and glad you brought this up. I have kids in the hopper for points in the next few years so I’m in the same boat as you. From my perspective (gaining points in multiple states 14 yrs), the advantage comes from the special area youth hunt opportunities. In some states, youth’s have an advantage on premium unit hunts. I think the costs continue to rise so whether or not it’s financially worth it compared to buying a hunt is yet to be determined. I’m going to start down the path of point accumulation only because it will give them options in the future that I never had. My plan is to get them started early and put in for the premium units until they are old enough to decide. It’s hard to predict the “where” in this scenario and also species dependent. I prefer to apply in states that I can get to in a short days drive and units I’m familiar with. My 2 cents anyway. [/QUOTE]
