On the advice of those who understood the Oregon non-resident draw system, I have taken time to review the data and now understand that my 13 points accumulated for various species will buy me nothing when it comes to those hunts for which there are very few tags and none at all for non-residents most years. My son will be old enough to hunt big game in two years, and rather than hold out for a single premier tag, I am now considering applying as a group (of 2) for something less ambitious. I like Beatty's Butte for deer, as I am familiar with parts of the unit, but I would appreciate any advice regarding where best to apply for elk and antelope (rifle) under these conditions. Thank you for your suggestions, and good luck on the draw.
