Is the scouting done the same as for the deer hunts? One weekend prior or do you walk in blind?

One weekend prior or do you walk in blind? You are allowed to scout the Saturday prior to the first hunt.

Yeah this is my first time actually applyin for a quota hunt. Still not exactly sure how it works. If I heard right, since this is my first time applying for one it means I only have 1 point,correct?

You start out with zero priority. If you get drawn for OR or any other hunt, you will not gain a point. If you are unsuccessful, you will get a point (max 5, I think). We only put in for OR. Best of luck to ya.
