Changing the point systems is a bigger joke than the systems themselves.
I agree with others that the best system is no point system at all...should have thought about that before implementing the point system.
Kind of late to drain the swamp once you're up to your ass in alligators....or in this case bonus/preference points and the systems. May be even more unfair to change them mid-stream.
I dont like the systems, but I'd be pissed if my points were NOW worth nothing.
There are no easy answers...and I dont think point systems are going away. I also dont see point systems that take your points regardless of what tag you hunt with. States like Wyoming would be swimming in un-issued permits. That aint good for G&F revenue and it wont happen simply from a revenue standpoint. Wyoming has a pile of un-issued permits each year already, cant imagine how many more would be unissued if you lost points for any tag.
