Tags for 2014 I believe are all gone. I agree with sslinger. I am from Laramie and get up there often. I wouldn't consider hunting deer up there at all until maybe 2016. The elk hunting pressure can get pretty bad in easy to access areas. Realistic expectations for a bull? If you hunt hard, you may get an opportunity at a smaller bull. A few newer to the area get lucky and shoot a decent 5. I rarely have seen a good 6 point taken. I have also seen many locals hunt all season and not fill their tag... The benefits to the area is that there are a lot of roads making access pretty easy. The terrain is generally easy to navigate but you can get into steep, rugged terrain if you want. IMO, area 9 isn't the best choice for a general tag.
