Max points?

[AKaviator]

Out of curiosity, what are the "maximum points" in Oregon? I see lots of internet stuff explaining their system but not for when it started. I know I'm nowhere close to max.

East side mule deer went to draw in 84? But if I remember correctly points started in about 89 or 90, think it's turned over at least once for points. Meaning everyone has drawn their tag at least one time.

25 points for Antelope and deer, going into 2019 draw. 24 for Elk, 3 res and 2 nr.

I have 16 elk and 14 antelope. Just a couple for deer.

14 for antelope should definitely get you into Warner or Whitehorse or E Beatty's Butte. Do NOT drink the cool-aid and wait for Hart Mountain.

I got 15 for elk and fell for the trap of the Big Three and now I am in too deep to quit. If I had buddies with horses I would party apply for snake River and have a great hunt. As it is I will wait 5 more years for Mt Emily and pray we have a wolf season by then. LOL

He's a looong way from those hunts.

 

[conibear]

for some reason I thought you could get into E Beatty's w/14

my mistake

It’s crazy that it takes 15 points to draw an antelope tag here. I cashed my 15 point in a few years ago, that was my one and only antelope in Oregon. I’m not playing that game again.

It’s crazy that they make you wait 15-20 years and then you have to hunt in August!!!

I have 21 NR for elk/deer/lope and would have cashed this year had it not been for the wife wanting to go with me. The way it is, I'll have some major decisions to make next application season, wanting to avoid a hunt overlap after waiting soooo long. First goal is Mt. Emily elk, where I'd milk every day out of the one month season length, even though much is pre-rut.

 

[Umpqua Hunter]

I had the max deer points at 16 in 2009 when I burned mine. That would make the max (if anyone is left) being 26 points going into 2019.

WB is right on. I just had a nonresident friend burn 20+ points on a second season Warner tag this year.

 

[AKaviator]

It's all good, I'm not in a big hurry to draw. I'll just keep buying points for now. My wife is an Eastern Oregon girl and we own a small place there. If she gets her way, and she almost always does, we'll move there someday. Then I'll apply as a resident. Oregon is stingy to the non-residents!

I assume you would go after the Mt Emily late deer tag along with the elk tag. That month of elk hunting sure would be some great scouting time to pin down a couple nice bucks for later.

You know I?ve tried to do several combo hunts in the past. None of them worked out. My mind is always open to ideas, but I really prefer to focus on one hunt if I invest so long waiting.

 

[Redbowman]

Saw a group of good bulls along the Umpqua last week, I would love to have a tag in that unit.

Play around here if you have not alread. It’s not perfect and it’s not a guarantee, but it’s very good in predicting what you may draw.

Wapitibob could you PM me. I looked at the report and I must be an idiot. I did draw the 470a tag but don?t really understand how I got it by the report.
