    PP Rule of Thumb

    What impact will the license and PP increases have on creep? I when researching draws I generally assume 1 point creep per year. Think it?ll stay similar or will it bump even more this year?

    Antelope Unit 76

    Starting to look at what tags I can draw that have an early season start and 76-2 looks doable but it comes with restrictions. Anybody have experience in this area or unit? My questions are: - does the higher elevation in the southern part of the unit, S of Beaver Creek Rd, mean potential for...

    Draw Odds Question

    I am looking at the last three years of draw odds for an area/species and seeing the total quota increase, as well as the PP required to draw. The area doesn't allocate a lot of tags to begin with, but can I infer that the population and/or quality is increasing based on these numbers? I realize...

    Muzzleloader Antelope?

    How often do they add or update muzzleloader hunts for antelope? Starting to think about applications for 2017 and I'm interested in muzzleloading. Currently he only unit I can draw is 50, but I'd be burning a few points so I'm not sure if I want to do that or continue searching for second...

    Soldier Creek HMA

    Anybody been on or around this area in the fall. Permits are unlimited so I'm curious about general pressure. Also how does the check in process work? If your planning on hunting all week do you need to call each day during business hours?

    Antelope 2016

    I have 1 PP going into the 2016 draw. I would like to draw a type 1 and perhaps add a type 6. I've looked through the draw odds from last year and am thinking about areas 34, 11, and 9 in no particular order. They are all listed as limited access but have quite a bit of WIA, and HMA land too if...

    This months mag

    I just got my email about the new magazine for the month. I opened it for the first time today and it's the same issue as last month. It's the December/January issue so I'm guessing it was intentional. I just want to make sure the same magazine was intended to be sent twice.

    Help me understand the Elk draw process

    I am a little confused about the general tags versus the LQ tags. Looking at the odds report, the general tags are all lumped into one category. Does that mean that you can hunt any unit listed as general in the state? If you draw a general you can only hunt areas 3, 6, 9, 10, etc. but you...

    Hunting TV Shows

    Fun topic here 😀 I usually don't go for the TV hunting shows because I don't feel like they portray hunting as realistically as it could be. However, I recently stumbled upon "fresh Tracks with Randy Newberg" and this is a show that I think does a wonderful job of detailing what I would call...

    Bought my first ever pref point

    I hunted antelope unsuccessfully for the first time last year. First ever trip out west actually. Even though we didn't harvest I had a blast. I've been wanting to go back ever since we left, and today I bought my first ever pref point. Pretty stoked about it! It's the little things in life, ya...

    How to fix a peep sight that over rotates

    I had a new string put on my bow and have put probably 100 or so shots through it so far. I am finding that my peep sight is no longer lined up when I draw and neither is my d loop. I have been twisting my peep with my hand before each shot and that helps for that shot, but I need to repeat...

One question I have is, what to the two letter codes mean in the article titles. So in the Feb/Mar journal, Graduation...

    New to backpacking

    I've started to get out and hike with my backpack to prep for this fall. I started by putting a few weight plates into my pack, then a sweatshirt, then a few more small plates. Thirty pounds if weights total. Which brings me to my question. How should I be distributing weight to safely and...

    Help Me Understand the Wyoming Draw Process

    I am doing a bit of research on WY Antelope and am confusing myself a little bit. I thought I had the draw process figured out but the more I look at it I am not sure I understand. So for a NR, the tags are split 75/25 into the PP and Random drawing. Does everyone enter the PP drawing at...

    Where to start building points?

    Just trying to figure out what state(s) I should start building Elk points in. Elk is my dream hunt and likely once in a long while. As a 26 yo, what would you recommend I apply for point wise?

    How to determine a mature mule deer

    I am going to be chasing MD for the first time this fall. How do you tell if a mule deer buck is mature? Is it like whitetails, where you look for a roman nose and a swayed back?

    WY PP Question

    When you start to buy pp in Wyoming, do you have to continue to buy one each year? For example, can I buy a point every other year for a species, then in 6 years have built up 3 pp? I thought I read something where if you don't buy for a certain length of time then your points are forfeited. I...
