I only put in for antelope this year and am feeling pretty lucky since I drew my 1st choice again this year. Per the draw odds it was showing around a 50% chance of drawing with no points so I'm a happy camper:)
Can't wait to be back in Wyoming - good luck to all on your draws!!!

I put in 10 apps this year and only drew an additional cow/calf elk tag. So general deer and elk again this year.

0 for 2 in Wyoming and 0 for 5 here in NM! The upside is I have refund money to spend on a new toy.

Our group pulled 113-1 antelope tags. Should be a good time.

My dad and I drew antelope bucks. He hit a doe tag too, but I missed that one. Hopefully I can buy one for the adjacent unit since there aren't any leftovers for my area.

Got a buck deer(area C) and a buck antelope(area 16).
Will apply for a leftover doe antelope.
Have been going to Wyoming for about the last 20 years and love it dearly. The landscape, people and game animals are wonderful. I love the place.

Got unit 88 any antelope, but the odds were pretty good. Other than that, nothing but 2 doe antelope tags and my 3rd choice extra cow. Not much but I will take it.
I'm 1 for 22 (buck antelope is the 1) this year throughout the west, other than unlimited/leftover/doe tags.
A guy at work drew 102 deer. It was his first time ever putting in for a controlled hunt. I hate him.

I hate you T_Inman. 88 was my second choice antelope area. I couldnt draw it and neither could a young lady we were to take hunting for the first time.

2nd choice? Are you talking about the type 1 tag? Last year's (haven't checked this year's) odds for 1st choice Unit 88 applicants was about 60%. 2nd choice applicants had zero chance the last couple years and I can only assume this year too...
Did she at least get some doe tags somewhere?

Antelope unit 9. Two doe tags. Always a good time.

I met a French guy the other day. I asked him "Do you speak German?" He said "No." I said "You're welcome!"

I'll be a bit west of Laramie with 3 pronghorn tags in my pocket in September. Good times!

I prefer unit 89 to 88, so yeah second choice. I didn't even bother to look at the odds. It was 9pm the last night of the deadline When I realized I hadn't got my applications in. Too busy at work, which is a good thing, though inconvenient at times.
We'll get some general deer tags and an elk tag. She'll get to hunt regardless.

This year odds in 88 were about 50/50 first choice
89 was about 1 in 3.
We need to kill more coyotes down there.

Wife and I both drew Area C deer and Area 023-1 Antelope.
We're coming to Wyoming for the first time! Well we've been to Yellowstone, but this is for hunting!
