    Does anyone have an answer to what happens if you get drawn and are unable to attend? do you decline the hunt and keep your points or do you start at zero and miss the hunt (in the event of getting drawn for 2 hunts at the same time in 2 different locations)
    You lose the points. Happened to me three years ago when I drew Archery Mule Deer and Archery WT the same week.

          You'll loose your points. That's about the only good thing about the new system.

                paid for our alligator permits, so that's 2 less spots for second drawing...LOL The end of Sept can't get here fast enough.

                  I believe you'd lose your points under the old system as well.

                    Yeah but now it's the ONLY thing that might keep people from being stingy and putting in for every hunt even when they know they overlap. Before with one app per category it didn't happen near as much.

                      I would be happy winning one of those pig hunts.

                        Not me. I have 13 points in Exotics and put in for most of them. Tried to stagger dates, but a couple had overlap. I have 5 points in Javelina and put in for several of those. If I want to hunt Javis bad, I'll just show up at the Chap as a standby.

                          here's another question: can you be selected for multiple hunts in the same category within the same year?

                            Yes. But the first one you draw will result in your loyalty points going to zero, so that will make it less likely to be drawn on any others in that category. It's still possible though.

                              My kids got selected for several youth hunts a couple of years ago with three of them being in the same category. Like Shane said, if it is one or twelve your selected for in the same category, you still lose your points. That is part of why I apply for multiple hunts in the same category.

                                A buddy of mine got drawn for Dougherty and Murphree alligator hunts on the same dates last year, and he somehow pulled off both hunts.
