How the Wyoming draw works

Points first. Then luck.

Preference points

Nonresidents build preference points over the years they don't draw. In the point draw, licenses go to the applicants holding the most points first.

The 75/25 split

Wyoming gives 75% of nonresident licenses to the point draw and 25% to a random draw among everyone who missed it, so a hunter with few points still has a chance.

Residents

Residents don't use points for elk or deer: their licenses are drawn at random. Most deer areas also have a general season residents can hunt over the counter.

When to apply

Applications open in early January. Nonresident elk closes around the start of February; deer, antelope and resident elk close June 1. Wyoming Game and Fish posts each year's dates.

General or drawn

Many areas have a general season. Residents buy that license over the counter; nonresidents draw a region general license (elk: Eastern, Southern or Western; deer: lettered regions) that covers them.

Hunt areas

Every limited-quota license is good in one hunt area, or a few, for one season. Each area here has its own page: seasons, legal animals, the points that drew and its legal boundary.

Nonresident elk applications open in January

Pick the mountain. Then apply.

Every area has its own sheet: the licenses, the points that drew, every applicant's draw and the areas around it.
