I have a friend that hunts units 85 & 861 in Colorado and want me to come and hunt with him the first rifle season for elk I have 7 PP now whats the chance I'll draw next year?

Best wait until the Preference Point issue of Colorado Outdoors comes out in February. This year showed a monumental change in the number of draw applications, tag allocation, the 2nd Draw . No telling how it affected everything.
Now would be a good time to get your subscription for Colorado Outdoors

Thanks for the advise I'll check out that publication

It’s all published already on the CPW website.

Takes 0 points

Thanks I did see those published numbers, I would be interested in a different unit that requires using up the points, I'll have to recheck next year.
