WY - Applying?

[Stein]

There are a few threads on ID and MT, so I thought I would float this one up especially since WY F&G sent out the e-mail saying you have to quarantine for 14 days if you come over to hunt.

I have points for antelope in WY and MT and will probably bank points in WY and apply in MT for this year as it looks like MT is more of a sure bet and the season I would apply for is later in the year and pretty long.

I'll bank points in WY deer and elk as well this year.

Wait......what? Quarantine for 14 days? Currently or in September?

currently. Contrary to popular belief, the world is in fact NOT ending. Fall seasons will be in full swing and I'll be applying for deer and hoping the hysteria that kept MT apps down, will push through to WY as well and guarantee me some tags

I called Wyoming last week about this and if there is a stay at home order in either state then they would consider that by allowing to use the tag next year but I think the 14 day quarantine in the fall will be gone by then, I hope

I'm planning to apply for antelope but will wait until May 31 to do so.

I'm just posting here to post on a thread Karl posted in.

I'll probably wait till the end of May to decide what to do, see how the virus goes as well as the drawings in other states more importantly.

The current regulation expires on 4/30 unless extended.  It's not clear under what circumstances it may be extended, but common sense would say that WY would look outward and determine the risk of allowing nonresidents in.  They likely can't do it state by state, so we are likely lumped in with every other state.

It would be very nice if states would publish official guidance like what they will do if either state has a stay at home order or a quarantine in place.  If we knew we would either get a refund or transfer to the next year that would resolve a bunch of apprehension in sending a bunch of money their way.  It sounds like MT plans on doing that, but I haven't seen official guidance from any state yet.

Will apply for WY antelope and leftover cow elk. Not worried at all.

If I didn't want to hunt antelope so bad this fall I'd apply for an area that I'm one point short on and hope the virus will give me an edge on drawing it. Could be some crazy draw odd this year.

If this crap is still going on in September, hunting & a 14 day quarantine will be the least of our worries! I will be in the Wyoming range with my resident buddy regardless of the politicians playing election year games with the plague!

I'm going to wait and see my results from Montana, Nevada, and Utah first. Then I'll decide what to apply for.

My brother and I will be in Western Wyoming this Sept.  Looking forward to chasing muleys in the thin air.

It will be a good year to draw some tags...likely that NR applicants will be down and point creep will reverse gears a little.

Already in for Region K deer and antelope!  Points again for me this year with the elk.  Elk and deer hunting in Montana, deer and antelope in Wyoming, and Washington deer will keep me busy enough this fall!

Another year of buying points for myself.
