Post by: Meow on June 15, 2023, 04:28:57 PM: I struck out on WY deer. I wager I'll move to Wyoming in time to be a resident for general season next year and not have to worry so much about drawing. It seems like the general opportunities there as a resident will beat all but the best draws here in Washington. Then once I can participate in the resident draw there . . . 8)

Post by: Gunfire on June 16, 2023, 12:55:12 AM: We put in as a group for antelope and got selected with an average of 6 points. We also put in for doe/fawn tags but didn't draw those.

Antelope for my daughter, son, and I. North Greybull River.

What unit there are several on the North side along the Greybull? Might be able to give you some pointers :tup:

Wife and I drew antelope in unit 1 with two points.

Awesome! Thanks for the info. My brother and I have saved up 4x pts so far. Maybe time to pull the trigger :dunno:

Good luck to both of you!

Post by: Gunfire on June 18, 2023, 08:29:46 AM: Whoops, typo. It's actually South Greybull River that we selected. Unit 110-1 (any antelope). Never been to the unit so will be online scouting only.

We'll be applying to the Pitchfork, Rawhide, and Absaroka Front HMAs to maximize where we can hunt.

With Wyoming reducing nearly 4,500 antelope tags, this was one of the few units where the tag numbers actually increased. I'm hoping that means there is a healthy population.

We're not after trophies. Just a decent representative buck and a good hunt.

I hunted 063 North Ferris 3 years ago with my father so excited to get back this year and hunt with my kids.

Post by: dilleytech on June 20, 2023, 07:45:57 AM: The fall reports of “just got back from wyoming where did all the antelope go?” Will be interesting.
Title: Re: Wyoming draw!!!
Post by: Gunfire on June 20, 2023, 09:59:16 AM: That's my fear. Hate to burn points and then not find any antelope.
Title: Re: Wyoming draw!!!
Post by: Tball77 on June 28, 2023, 07:54:08 PM: 70% herd loss and zero fawn survival. Going to be interesting.
Title: Re: Wyoming draw!!!
Post by: Tenkara on June 28, 2023, 08:55:04 PM: I read 80%.

Post by: jae on June 29, 2023, 10:42:46 PM: Nothing here. Congrats to all that drew
Title: Re: Wyoming draw!!!
Post by: steeleywhopper on July 12, 2023, 09:42:00 AM: Wyoming Antelope and Whitetail deer tag around the Cody area, should be a fun hunt. Now if I could only draw a darn General Elk permit.

Post by: Ghost Hunter on July 12, 2023, 10:05:15 AM: Hoping I get my crossbow back from warranty service in time to use my 25-01 archery elk tag in September, if not it will be the rifle hunt in October. Good luck to everyone. My WY brother didn't have good luck on any of his draws.
