at this point it's more likely you can get a tag by a rejected charge than by the 3-5 pass.  I was told years ago it's all run at once but the charge anomalies is what delays things.

 

That said, it can & does happen.

that'll be fun!  We are 1 for 9 in our family... probably a September archery cow tag which will be good for a "new archer".

There's always people trying to beat the system... Legal?  Yes... Morally right?  Probably not.  Expensive?  I think so as it's a minimum of $50/app to get a bonus point so if you're putting in for 8 other people (as it seems you identified), that's $400/year to get more points in the future, say in 5 or more years.  After 5 years of doing that it totals a cpl thousand & it gets more expensive when you start burning tags as theres no refund on tags, only points. 

Plus, there's no guarantee you'll draw a tag even with their 5 or 6 points as you'll need to average their points with your own to get the average bonus points between your "seasoned grandmother" and yourself.  Also none of them will have taken a hunter Ed class for an additional point, although for another fee...

 

Go for it I say as this will probably help you get a few tags, but that's a lot just to increase your chances at a tag without any guarantee.

 

My thoughts anyway.

They’re not all bonus points only, plenty of chances at transfer tags, grand kids and kids,

Don’t think they are tags available on the 3-5 pass

Not sure about this year yet until the results are out, but of the 9 tags I've drawn in the previous 11 years (this year is 10 of 12), only 3 were 1st or 2nd choices. I don't mind the "scraps", I've filled the last 6 straight on some of the toughest hunts in the state.

My guess is they drew 6a but I could be wrong 

Unless they had max points, it’s unlikely they drew anything other than 4B archery

Not likely, your 3-5th choices didn't make it to the second round. They either got 3A/B or 4B
