In my honest opinion. if next year is your first elk hunt ever I would look over the draw odds and find half a dozen units you can draw either an either sex tag or cow tag. Then research the access, terrain, herd numbers and harvest percentages to pick the one you want to draw.
A lot of this info can be had off the elk statistics page on the CPW website.
Use 2nd and 3rd season otc tags as your last resort not for future hunting plans.
