I suspect we'll see more and more of this.
Right now the attrition rate is pretty dang low but with the COST of the hunt and tag price along with a guy's old age, we'll see guys dropping out.
Attrition will certainly go up dramatically in the next few years IMHO.
Even some of the highest points holders are just sitting on their points pile instead of hunting. Cost and age will keep many of them from hunting! I didn't want that to happen to me so I bit the bullet and endure the pain of the almighty dollar.
Sorry, but I'm glad sheep points cannot be transferred. It would spawn a cottage market for brokering points and the value would be extreme! Points would become even more of a damned game than it is now!
2 cents for free,

Have him apply and get the permit and then donate the permit to a disabled vet. He will have to pay for the permit, but it would not be "wasting" the points.
