WY: Applied For and Drew Wrong Tag

[JRDK2000]

I have used the landowner access program while hunting deer and antelope in the north Easter part of the state with some success. Are there any participating landowners in your unit?

If it makes you feel any better the same thing happened to me in Montana. I meant to strike out on purpose to pick up preference point and accidentally drew a cow elk tag.

Any update on this? Are you going hunting?

Non-resident. Drew a Unit 84 Type 1 tag. Regulations specify "Any elk valid on private land...". If "returning" it is even an option it's not clear if my points can be restored. My intention was to get a General tag, so I'm not sure how I screwed that up, but I am where I am.

So, how do I go about finding and contacting a land owner to get access to use the tag? To be clear, I'm not looking to get a free ride.

Short of returning with point restoration or finding private access, can I donate to a non-profit for a needy person? Or is there another option I'm not aware of?

Thank you,

EDIT:
I suppose maybe an outfitter can help. Now looking through https://wyoga.org/.

It happens, and I hope you found a solution Rock.
