It is in the works, but has not been implemented as a done deal. I believe the proposed modifications to Chapter 44 (license regulation) go to the WY G&F Commission in July. If approved, nonresident (and possibly resident) preference points would begin with '06 applications for deer, elk and antelope. It couldn't hurt to write letters of support to WGFD wildlife division in Cheyenne, as the Commission will almost certainly want to know what nonresident hunters feel about the proposed change. I'm in favor!
Former Casper district biologist, now nonresident, who didn't draw 2005 elk either!
