Common sense says if you decline a tag one year, you should get one the next. In reality, it depends on the number of tags available and the number of points that applicants have. Tags are awarded to hunters with the most points, so if there are hunters with more points than you that apply, then they will be awarded tags before you. The risk is that there could be hunters with a lot of points that could theoretically apply to your unit for the first time and push you back in the line. No guarantees, just probabilities,

Funny. People in the south go north to areas such as 28 (where I live) to hunt, and many in my area apply farther north (Kap, Hearst) where they have better odds of getting a tag. One thing that will be disappear in my area though, is the all the locals who didn't get drawn hitting the woods during the calf hunt.

13 for me.

Wonder where that will put me on the list for 49?

15 for me

It is my understanding that they can not reserve it, but they can decline the tag this year re-enter the draw next year without detriment to their points

Any guesses on how many points will be required to be successful in 47 or 49?

Yes but you will also be gaining one additional point so no one will have more points that the person turning back tag.

How many points are you assigned each time? I'm assuming 1
