They should leave Wyoming as is, its one of the best states out there.:yeah:
I’m not a fan of points systems but Wyoming’s seems to work fairly well in my experience

Weird, I never got the survey either. :dunno: I like the way their point structure is currently. I think they are nervous because of their price increase this year on tags and everyone cashed in on points, they feel like people will get out of the game a bit.Thats exactly what I’m doing.

I would venture to guess that is the major driver behind the survey...

There are some folks complaining about the points sharing system in Wyoming. They don't like the guys trading info for points and getting to hunt G/H every year and shooting big deer.
I would venture to guess that is the major driver behind the survey...
Wow I didn’t realize that was a thing
Post by: jjhunter on May 09, 2018, 07:41:24 PM
I got the survey because I have purchased points the past few years. I answered “No” to the question about if I have ever applied for a tag before, and it ended the survey for me so I’m not sure what the rest of the questions were, or the intent behind the survey.
Sounds like my conspiracy theory was way off. :chuckle:

Here’s the email I got. The part cut off at the bottom is once you answer the resident question within the email it launches the survey in survey monkey.

I believe it is a great state as far as the hunting.
HOWEVER, very young into the points (13 max) I think. Point creep will start hitting hard here in 5 or so years :/

The option for leaving it was to have everyone pay more to offset the 1.5 million in fees for the refund. I voted for the $15 application and charge if drawn. I don’t feel it really effects the odds since you can just buy points anyways over such a broad time period.I’m with you, in that I don’t see this changing the draw odds much if it goes through. People (myself included) have already been building points without having to front the cost of the tag. :dunno:

I also failed the comprehension portion of the preference point system so that made me feel so little inadequate.

It's just a lovely Monday morning to get you and vande a little fired up and pot stirring.
I really have no idea why some got it and others didn't.
Mine came in last week sometime and sadly I have only put in for points, which was the first question. If you answered you've only bought points the survey ends with that one question and you don't get to get into giving more opinions.

Having to front the fees makes most normal people choose what to apply for. :twocents:

Look what happened in Colorado this year on oil apps numbers since they changed from few fronting. Apps are up 300-500% over last year! I know it’ll be different in wyo because you can just buy a point later on but still. I’d guess you will see lots more apps regardless because there’s always a slim chance in random draw.
Having to front the fees makes most normal people choose what to apply for. :twocents:
Right on Bullblaster. More people will apply in the no points random category if they don't have to pay up-front for the tag and lessen ever ones odds. I got real lucky and drew a few tags that way but I had to front the Money for the tag. Same thing happened here in the oils draws and looked what happened to those draw odds. And CO just screwed me with their change in not fronting the tag fee. At 67 yrs old I'm getting out of the points game soon but I feel for the rest of you younger guys.
