The preference point system in WY is tricky. Essentially there are three different drawings for NR. Special Draw (costs more money), Preference Point Draw, and then Random. The best way to look at this is to get on the G&F website and look at the draw odds from 2011. Look at the draw odds for the same amount of preference points you have AND look at where they are above and below where you sit. From that information, you can tell which areas you actually have a chance of drawing and which areas you have minimal to zero chance of drawing. Its a bit of a tricky system for you guys but at least you are building points. Residents are still on a "luck of the draw" system for elk, deer, and antelope. I haven't drawn a limited entry bull tag in 5 years. Good Luck!
