Elk Draw for NR's

[BenHuntn]

Why is it so important for Game and fish to have the NonResident draw results before resident draw results. It must have something to do with Outfitters.

Why do you care?

Best to let a sleeping dog lie sometimes...its perfect the way it is, in particular if you're a resident.

Maybe we can get all WY elk applications to have a January application period and May 21 for the draw results. That way residents can wait for the elk draws before applying for deer and pronghorn. It's kind of handy for a NR

As long as I draw I don’t care when the app period is or the results ? and if not here I come general season !!

Here is an example. I wanted to book with an outfitter that has great private property to hunt Big Elk. They only book 4 to 5 hunters a year. It's not cheap but a great hunt. It is a draw area. When I called for more info the owner said "we book up with all nonResidents because they get there results first".

So it must be a draw unit even for residents? I can’t help to help to think that when your resident eyes started pouring out tears you used a general elk tag to wipe them away?

the second chapter to this story could be that you want a points system so you will know exactly when you can draw that unit with the big bulls on private land.?

I’m sorry this is funny ?

Maybe pay for the hunt upfront. Then standby till you draw a tag.

Do outfitters have a process for booking clients for hard to draw hunts? Like paying a refundable deposit in case you don't draw.

Residents can't do that because they don't have points!

I’m thankful for that!

Boom!!! Thanks brother!! This wait has been killing me. As soon as it posts I can finish the rest of my apps for the year.

They aren't in any hurry...

I don't like how the website lists 5/21 as the "tentative date"

Conducting the non resident elk draw while applications for resident elk, and deer and antelope for everyone are being processed probably has them running a little behind.
