Region G Wyoming

[trophyhunt]

Wyoming’s draw is still a bit confusing to me, but don’t you keep your points if you draw your second choice?  If that’s the case, put in for the hardest to draw tag and put g or h aa your second choice.  I messed up by cashing in all my elk points 2 years ago.

Wyoming looks at everyone's first choice before going to second choice.  You will not draw G or H as a second draw.  Second choice successful units are ones that are under subscribed on first choice applicants.

Are there good 2nd choice units to put in for ?

In general no, most of the hunts you can draw as a 2nd choice have poor access and/or lower densities of deer.

Western Wyo is an incredible place. Just have to align expectations with reality.

Most tags draw as 2nd choice are general region tags.  There can be good hunting in almost all general regions.  But your going to need some inside info or do some scouting to find the good hunting.

  It looks like Region A, J, T and X are the only regions that you could draw last year as a 2nd choice.

The experience alone of hunting G is worth a lifetime, was lucky enough to go there in 2015. Killing a big buck while camping in comfort is more than doable if you are in the right shape and willing to put in the work. My advice would be take a summer scouting trip if you can and arrive a few days before the opener and scout scout scout. If you hunt archery you could hunt during those days before the rifle opener as well, but glass dawn til dusk and cover ground. I was able to pattern a particular group of bucks that i glassed up from about a mile and a half away and way the f$*k up higher than where I was but was able to knock down a 165" buck opening day, my dad had opportunities at 2 different ones pushing the 200" mark but couldn't quite seal the deal, all while we camped from our wall tent. Granted we were on the ground from 3:30am at the earliest and arriving back in camp well past dark. Go high and youll find the bucks, they seemed to like to bed lower and work their way up canyons early am as well and drop back down just before dark. PM for specific areas I would focus if ya want!

That’s a great looking buck right there

I hunted G last year and I made it my whole years goal to get into excellent mountain shape. I was in the best shape of my life and that country still threw some haymakers at me. I backpacked in, but would not want to day hike in after seeing what the country was like. Its doable for a few days but after that, I'd be throwing in the towel.

I think for 99% of people this is the case.
