Wyoming Draw: First Choice, Second Choice, Third Choice
Thanks for mentioning that! Back in the day you automatically got the point if you did not draw but that is a separate purchase now. The good part of drawing second choice is that you still have the ability to purchase a point and continue building points as well as hunting that year - I did not... -

Wyoming type 1 vs type 2
Correct - preliminary dates have been our since late December. They are not approved until middle of April and published until May 1st. They rarely change season dates from preliminary regulations but I did have it happen to me one time that I was caught by surprise so figured it is worth... -

Wyoming type 1 vs type 2
I have not - last went in 2021 but have hunted on and off for antelope in Wyoming since 2005 and that was always my experience during that time. Hopefully the numbers come up in the next couple years if they dropped off that much -

Wyoming type 1 vs type 2
Make sure to check the season dates once Wyoming G&F release them. The unit I hunted a couple years back on a type 7 tag (doe tag with restrictions) changed from one year to the next. Tag we hunted with in the past was restricted to different season dates and south of a certain road but changed... -

Units where shots extend out to 3-400 yards or more I tend to... -

Wyoming Draw: First Choice, Second Choice, Third Choice
I always select a second choice just in case. In Wyoming you won't lose your points if you draw a second choice so you get both a tag and point for the year which is a win-win. The likelihood of actually drawing a second choice unit is realistically very low if you select a decent unit but still... -

Wyoming Unit Antelope
I have hunted many Wyoming antelope units and found that there is a lot of information available through the Game and Fish if you do some digging. There is a list of land owners offering public access for each unit (not sure if anyone is offering access in 43) and HMA units are easily... -

Shooting prone
It all comes down to the unit you draw and how much vegetation there is. I have hunted flat units with little vegetation where prone shots are very much a normal part of the hunt but also hunted dense sage where sitting or kneeling is better to get over the brush. As others have said - probably...
