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!!!
Me and my hunting pard drew unit 52 type 1 antelope tags!!!
No luck for me or my buddy this year.
I put in 10 apps this year and only drew an additional cow/calf elk tag. So general deer and elk again this year.
Drew Region D for mule deer....Yahoooo!
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.
Wife and I drew 34-1 tags so, I am happy, Deer general and probably buy some over the counter doe antelope tags for freezer fillers...
Hey Wyoming260 my buddy and I drew the same tags. We both got 34-1 antelope and general deer. We also both picked up a doe/fawn tag each. This will be our first time hunting wyoming.
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'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!

You guys have probably already seen this, but I think it's worth sharing.
"He won't know you have a moose tag..."
Never hunted in Wyoming but drew area 9 for antelope. Can't wait to go any advise for a newbie and his kids??
Nada. This used to be so easy...
Blanked again, maybe next year.
74-1 Antelope and 67-6 cow calf additional late season Elk along with general Elk and general deer.
All the hunters in our group got Unit 9 (Lusk) doe tags. No one applied for bucks.
That will leave our party of 10 with 6 tags to fill on a weekend hunt.
Should be a good time. The hunters include two of three daughters, two sons-in-law, a boyfriend and myself. Non-hunters include one daughter, my wife and two grandsons (presently 2 yrs and 3-4 months respectively).
Motel reservations were made weeks ago. I suggest anyone hunting Lusk and planning on staying in a motel make theirs ASAP.
I put in for RedDesert antelope, forget which unit as #1 choice. No draw. Building points for muleys.
Nada. This used to be so easy...
Some hunts that just a few years ago always had leftovers...now are competitive for first choice applicants.
Lots more people putting in these days, with generally fewer tags to go around.
Antelope unit 9. Two doe tags. Always a good time.

Congrats Bob tell Keith & Sheldon I said hello!!
