I have went back and forth, looked at season dates, draw odds, built my spreadsheet and decided I am most likely sitting out this year. Hopefully draw a NE Oregon unit with a buddy that will take up a chunk of september then maybe draw a montana permit too. I hate just buying points but looks like that is my play this year. Good luck

I went back and forth, decided to go with WY as my primary and MT as the backup.  I would be happy either way but want to see some new territory.

Points for me again.  Not enough in the WY bank to draw anything cool, don't want to burn them yet.  Might do a Colorado drop camp this year in an OTC or an easy draw unit...

One of my buddies and my wife submitted for tags in central WY. They went special with 12 point average. Should be 100% draw. Going with an outfitter. Should be a blast.
Title: Re: Wyoming Elk Draw 2022
Post by: WapitiTalk1 on January 27, 2022, 08:59:49 PM
Just a reminder, pretty much any GEN area tag in WY is far better than hunting GEN areas in most states, particularly WA  8)
Title: Re: Wyoming Elk Draw 2022
Post by: Ridgerunner on January 27, 2022, 09:37:20 PM
Thought this might have been my year to cash in max points but nah I'm going to hold off another year or two I think.
Title: Re: Wyoming Elk Draw 2022
Post by: Stein on January 27, 2022, 09:38:38 PM
Now I'm back on the fence, thinking about double dipping MT with archery then rifle.  If WY were only where ID is it would make my life so much easier.  17 hour drives are a drag.

I'm all reality I was so blown away by Wyoming's general area and the bull elk I saw and the size of antlers that ive not even been tempted to try to save for a special draw unit. Plus having family living smack dab in the middle of a general unit helps.

But for my own purposes let me refute this claim and say all the elk have fled general units for limited entry units!

But seriously, some fantastic elk opportunities.
Title: Re: Wyoming Elk Draw 2022
Post by: Caseknife on January 29, 2022, 08:08:38 AM
Hopefully going with a group of cow hunters, they should draw......... and I am in for the same unit in the random for an any elk tag.  Hunted the unit in '12, my partner had the tag and then again in '17 with my tag.  Chances of drawing that tag again are slim to none, but way better than trying to draw Washington quality tags.  Fingers crossed.
Title: Re: Wyoming Elk Draw 2022
Post by: JustinC on January 29, 2022, 10:22:42 AM
I'm still deciding. I have 8 points so I could draw a few decent tags.
Title: Re: Wyoming Elk Draw 2022
Post by: ganghis on January 29, 2022, 01:14:55 PM
I'm sitting on 3 pts but feel like this year will be 3.5 for the general to have it guaranteed - sitting it out for another year so it's more of a sure thing

it was 3.5 last year. It'll jump to 4 or even 4.5 this year. I know a bunch of guys in that 5-7pt range jumping on the general train. Too many YouTubers preaching the general gospel.

I am only doing 1 out of state hunt this year and its going to be Mule Deer in Region G in Sept. I have to get my house built, tired of being a vagabond with no real home. 15 points next year for Wy. Elk! Decisions will need to be made.

This for sure.  I am thinking it could actually be a decent year to draw a quality tag from the random pool.  Some of those randoms are already around 5%, and could get better this year with all the guys jumping to General.  The odds for the random general plummetted last year, and I expect they'll be even worse this year!

Unit I'm applying for was 5% last year with 0 points, random special.  That's better odds than my WA pick with 10 points.  Fingers crossed, but already have a plan for the refund check.

hmm, so if I pay it off before they put it back, I’ll have $700 sitting on my card that I’ll have to spend?! Usually I have a balance so not a big deal, guess I’ll have to go buy another gun then!

I got 13 pts but thats still no man zone for the tags that look good to me.  Prefer no GRIZZ zones lol.  I think I need to study harder than my Epic/Gohunt/Fool stuff to find a good unit to burn the points. If your not max you will never get to the top 5 units and if you are max you still got maybe 50/50 shot.

I struck out for my random bull tag, but..........I am going with a group of 5 cow hunters to the unit I struck out in, but know well.

I cant believe it!  Not-Selected again this year!!!  The permit that I would have liked to have drawn but didn't apply for because I thought it was out of reach went for 3 points lower than I had!  Uggh!!!  The permit that I thought I would get for sure with my 11 points in the special draw I didn't draw. 33% of the applicants with 11 points drew but not us.  The crazy thing is that in the cheaper regular draw it only took 10.5 points to draw the same tag!  So if I would have entered the draw in the cheaper option I would have had a tag in my pocket!  Last year I barely missed it too!!!  All the research in the world on all of this is helpful I guess but its crazy how it actually turns out.  Well I guess there is always next year with 12 points!!!

I pulled out of the general draw last minute due to work stuffs, but will have five points next year so feeling good about that. From talking to the outfitter I was going to go with he was saying it was a weird year for point creep/drop in some of the units and that the general was way harder to draw this year.
