Our group of 3 struck out. Point creep must have been more than we thought again this year.
Sorry, how many did you guys have? Someday we will look back at the good old days when you could hunt elk hunt WY every 3 years.

We had greater than 5. Already doing some research on plan b

Average of 9.5 points between me and my buddy wasn’t enough to get a unit 120 bull tag in the special category. I’ll try again next year I guess. Point creep was stronger than I thought it would be. Jumped up higher than one point this year for sure.

you just missed. It was 100% at 10pts. 0% at 9.5%

. Yep!  I told my buddy he was a major let down looser with his 9 points!!!  Ha ha. Will try again next year.  5 guys in the draw with 10 points and they all drew the last 5 tags. My other buddy was in for unit 61 with 10 points and he didn’t make the cut either. Thanks for the advice and help Karl.

Just thinking out loud... I wonder how much point creep will level out when COVID is over and everyone has to go back to regular work schedules... :chuckle:
