Wyo draw, any news?

ram100 · Apr 28, 2008

I know what the site says but sometimes they run a bit ahead. Has anybody heard from someone in Cheyenne who may know?

ElmerFudd · Apr 28, 2008

They approved the quotas TH-FR last week. The draw can happen any time now. I'd like to find out before MT is due, but.....

ram100 · Apr 28, 2008

That was kind of what I was thinking. I went ahead and sent Montana in anyway. Wishful thinking to hope for two great tags in the same year anyway. I bet they run the draw in the next couple days.

ElmerFudd · Apr 28, 2008

I think have a real shot in WY sheep. If I draw WY sheep, I'd just do the best or nothing foe all in MT, looking for an upgrade. Might consider better draw odds, especially on moose or goat if WY does not come through. It is a postmrk/internet date, so I can wait until the last day.

We'll probably know tomorrow, but heres a thought. Im pretty sure the draw is already done, just waitin for the results. I checked my points and now have one more than last year. I would assume if you checked your points and you now have zero then you probably drew.

ElmerFudd · May 1, 2008

I have exactly the same as I did going in.

ram100 · May 1, 2008

I have exactly the same too. So does my son. Hopefully we know tomorrow. I would imagine somebody knows...

LAST EDITED ON May-01-08 AT 03:44PM (MST)[p]Last year, other people were saying they had an extra point added to their total. Mine read the same as when I applied. I drew my sheep tag. Hopefully you guys with unchanged point totals will draw tags. Best of luck to all!

Forgot to add: I'm thinking positive thoughts for you, EF. Hope you get your bighorn sheep tag!

ElmerFudd · May 1, 2008

Thanks dw. You made me call. The gentelman said results will be posted by 8AM Monday, they will not give them out by phone before then. That does sound like the draw is over, with some chance of posting Friday......

brymoore · May 1, 2008

My points haven't changed. There's too many of us without a point change to be that lucky.

ElmerFudd · May 1, 2008

Maybe they just have the residents in the system? I think they draw residents first. Anyway, for sure less than a week now...."I gots to know!"

Oh well, one way or the other, should not be too many more years for me, unless they change they change the system.

Wyo · May 1, 2008

It turns out I cant count, max points going INTO the draw should be 13 correct? If thats the case then my points haven't changed either. Sorry for the false hope. The question is will we know tomorrow or do we have to wait until monday.

dwalton · May 1, 2008

For moose, Wyoming draws the non-ressies first. Then, the left over cow tags are rolled into the resident drawing. Hopefully they will post tomorrow!

NMPaul · May 1, 2008

Getting a tag would be nice, however, at this point i would be happy with some refund checks.

ElmerFudd · May 1, 2008

Bleep refund checks. I want a tag.

NMPaul · May 2, 2008

Elmer, since I only got 7 points and less than 1% chance of drawing unit 5 that refund check is realistically all I have to look forward to..

ElmerFudd · May 4, 2008

Paul,

I need a refund before sending in my last application I am sending in this year, AZ sheep. I just sent in AZ deer, and our CA apps yesterday. I know CO mtn goat (probabally CO sheep too, it does not show on my list hen trying to buy a stamp) is coming, that or my economic stimulus tax check, and I am done. Still want a WY tag....

Hopefully WY posts Monday!

YukonDall · May 4, 2008

IS THE TRAIN OF THOUGHT THAT THE MOOSE,SHEEP,& GOAT DRAWS IN WYOMING WILL HAPPEN THIS MONDAY....????.....THANKS....YD.

it says they are goung to post monday the 5th
im all ready to be rejected

ElmerFudd · May 4, 2008

Likely rejection here too, but WY is my best chance to hunt sheep this year or soon. I'd rather have a breaks or desert tag, but the odds at my points in WY have me thinking I'll be hunting sheep in not too many years.
