Central Wyoming - Guidance Requested

[wapitibob]

It blows me away the points needed to hunt WY these days. Do a search just 10 years ago, units that were 1-2 points are now 10 point units. The same for WY General elk. You used to be ablet to get them as leftovers.

NE Turkey, sold out in two hours!

I used to take a friend to an easy draw unit in WY that took 0 points, it now takes 9!

It is what it is, we "isn't going back"

The dept has cut the available tags by more than half.

For sure but even two or three years ago, prior to the huge winterkill, the points were moving up fast. and the cuts have accelerated that for sure.

Hey all!
I have never hunted antelope before but have been saving up some points. I currently have 7 preference points in Wyoming and I am looking to use them this fall for a hunt I can do with my 9 year old son. I have been researching units in Central Wyoming and have found quite a few I have 100% odds to draw. My issue now is trying to decide which units would be the best to apply for. I understand the state is covered in antelope and I probably will have a great hunt in any of these units, but would love some local insight/guidance on which unit has the best access and quality of antelope. I plan to road trip down and spend 3-5 days hunting.

Feel free to PM if you are willing to help out!

Lots of good info on the Wyoming hunt planner. Access info, terrain, draw odds, contact info. Play around there a bit. Some of the units also include historical trophy potential.
