I drew for type 1 antelope.

It is definitely much harder to draw antelope. I've had at least one license since 2005 but this year required more luck. The license I drew this year was the same one I drew in 2020 as a second choice and now it requires luck to draw as a first choice. I didn't draw a type 6 license even though I applied in what was previously one of the easiest to draw units.  Until just a few years ago they didn't even sell out the leftovers.

I sure hope the herds rebound. The big winter a couple years ago was devastating.

Antelope and deer! Helps ease the pain of not drawing anything again in Washington.  20+ points for deer goat sheep and moose. 18 for elk

Will be interesting to see what the preference point pool was like after the special app price explosion. I have 7 antelope points and put in for a 100% draw at 7 last year. I didn't expect to draw as I figured normal point creep would take it to 8, but very curious what the final point pool looked liked.

No deer either, but did a random draw, low odds one.

My 5 points didn't cut it this year. I thought I would have about 50 percent chance. Be interesting to see if I really did or if some folks with higher points put in for my unit.

After a tough year of not drawing OR, UT AZ, MT, or WA, I was prepared for a couple more unsuccessfuls. I was surprised to see the WY email already in my inbox so early today. So checked my phone half awake this morning & BAM!! Drew WY Deer & Antelope in areas I have hunted before!!!  Wow still in shock!! Wishing great huntin adventures to all those who drew!!  :tup: :tup:

No Wyoming for me in the random.   Only Idaho left for this cowboy.

Struck out on a Type 1 deer permit with 7 points and failed to draw a once easy 2nd choice type 3 tag...Looks like I may have to keep that Palouse Whitetail tag this year after all, anyone have any helpful info for this Blacktail hunter? :chuckle:. Will be interesting to see what the draw odds were.

The unit I put in for jumped from 7 to <10 for 100% draw
