Wyo Elk Results up

My group failed as well. I guess we were the victims of points creep. We drew the tags 2 yrs ago with 1 in the bank. We will let the outfitter sit on our deposits for another yr and retry. We are developing plan B. Good luck to everyone!

Finally hit the elk lotto ! unit 31 with max points . I have heard alot of pros and cons about this unit. Cant wait to get out there and see for myself.
 
Struck out again, going into next year with 10 points . Elk are my passion but looking at deer or antelope tag to justify time scouting for elk having to travel from NM. Maybe drawing a unit 57/58 antelope tag would get me in position to venture into 31 or 32 for elk. Don't have my Wyo unit map handy but is the deer opportunity descent in the equivalent area of unit 57/58 for antelope?

Deer

Area 100, General Region W- 0 points had 53.75%. Special-0 points had 100%

Area 101- 8 points only had a 12.5%. Special-7.5 points had 50%

Area 102- 8 points only had a 27.63%. Special-8 points had 65.22%


So unless you have lots of deer points, I would hunt somewhere else for deer. 100 has deer but even the jackrabbits in that country pack water. Few and far between and where there are good deer numbers you will find a pumkin patch.
Goats are a hard draw in 57/58 and 59 and 112 are just decent. Up to you really.

Hey Forkhorn you care if I PM you about the elk in unit 31 ? Drew the tag as a non res this year. I have a few questions about the unit such as pressure,archery over rifle etc. thanks
 
Thx py, I'm at max pts (9) for deer and lopes. Hate to burn max pts on Reg W for deer but would if there is a reasonable chance for a 180 class buck. Along with that looks like I could draw 101 in special draw but lots of extra coin for that opportunity...know I'm rambling . Do you think a combo hunt unit 101 deer and unit 58 for antelope would be a good idea? Tough time of year with application season going full blast BUT I LOVE IT.
 
Py, please forgive my ignorance . How do I retreive a PM? Didn't see it in my [email protected] acct . Do they get retrieved within MM forum somehow. Kids have accurately described me as Techtared. Thx for your reply and am excited to read it
 
Thx Mallard for the training ?. And py I read The Pm ...very helpful. If you apply in NM I'm there to help. Really think it's a Great thing to help NR guys with once in a life time opportunity in your native home states, not like your sharing honey holes that will be ruined . NR hunters love to hunt just like you do but in most cases it's a one shot deal and the % of NR guys in that unit is defined each year. So helping those few is A GOOD Thing. Like I've posted before , I'm not going to share the canyon I'll be hunting to a NR inquiree but I know of many other good canyons I would be happy to point them to on a one shot deal, much $ invested into my state G/F dept and will help as a curiously to a brother sportsman. Thx Py
