Elk Hunting In Wyoming?

[GodSpeed1]

Thinking of trying to hunt Elk in Wyoming at some point in the future as a Non resident. I know the 90-10 rule hasn’t touched this species just yet - sounds like it could, but whatever that’s beside the point at this moment. I’m just wondering about units that might be worth looking into if I accrue a handful of points in the coming years . Thank ya much

Does this mean you currently have 0 points for elk in WY?

I'd check out the area around Deez

Have you went to the WGFD page and done any research?

If you don't have any points now, it will likely take you another six years to draw a general tag if the task force recommendations are implemented.

You wont hunt wy unless it's a random draw.

You'll never catch up to the point ponzi.

If you give up your 'Horn Porn', you can hunt Wyoming fairly often

Will general units be affected by 90/10? I didn’t think they would since they are OTC for residents.

Start buying points now. Given the current rate of point creep, swing back by in 6-7 years when you draw a general tag. Unless you get lucky and pick one up in the random earlier. If E,D,A go 90/10 it will be longer. If it goes 90/10 and they get the outfitters set aside it’ll be much, much longer.
It does no good to get information on the unit you can’t draw for 4 to 5 years. A world things can change for the better or worse.

In 6 or 7 years general tags will take 10 or 11 points to draw.

If your not on point 4 or 5 your never hunting wyoming unless you draw a random.

Current Task Force recommendation is to eliminated the 7250 quota.

Elk hunting really isn’t a thing in Wyoming. Try Montana or Idaho.

Unless you book with an outfitter! Something to think about.
