    The official 2025 Wyoming elk hunt for Dave N thread.

    The factory ammo is knocking on 1 MOA. Should be plenty good to kill an elk.

    AZ License Expiration

    Arizona likes to surprise you. Usually cc hits happen within a day or so of the cc update deadline.

    Wyoming elk special NR draw

    I went Regular, 2% random odds. I do have better odds in the reduced price draw for a cow tag, fingers crossed. I intend to draw in Colorado this year, so don’t really need to throw the extra cash at Wyoming this time.

    camper shell or small trailer?

    You can get a used topper for almost nothing. I got mine, practically new condition, for $150 through a government auction. Makes a great mobile camp for solo hunts.

    App fee increase bill

    I guess technically you’re right. A better way to put it is it’s roughly $150 to apply and build points in Colorado. My point was that it’s not a true equivalency, since you still are paying up to a few hundred $$ in Wyoming for preference points later in the summer, depending on the...

    App fee increase bill

    That includes preference point fees also though, right?

    Black Hills camping/fishing?

    Never fished there, but have stayed at the Custer Game Lodge campgrounds. We loved the place.

    Long term hunt planning

    My strategy is to keep a reserve of PTO and throw as many applications out as is sensible. You’ll get a few lucky draws, and eventually accumulate enough points to draw some tags predictably. After about 10 years, I now have way more options than time for drawing hunts. You have to keep your...

    2025-26 Season plans?

    The plan is: Oklahoma hogs Colorado early rifle deer Colorado muzzleloader elk Indiana deer Shoot for the moon everywhere else The plan always changes several times over during application season.

    Ram 1500 misfire

    If you end up replacing the motor, Jasper makes an MDS-deleted motor that I believe takes out a lot of the cam and lifter issues. I had one installed in my truck a couple years ago and still get 19-20 mpg on stock-sized 10-ply tires.

    Montana pronghorn draw

    I burned my 8 points and drew a tag. Should be a fun fall.

    How long?

    Just shy of 2 months until my first fall hunt of 2024. No elk tags this year though, only several deer and pronghorn tags - should be a fun fall!

    2024 Wyoming Antelope Draw Success! Yes!

    I went on my first antelope hunt about 12 years ago. Just a small fraction of the experience of many here, but still enough to see plenty of changes in populations, tag quotas, draw odds, etc. When I first started planning these hunts, I don’t know how many references I heard made to “prairie...

    2024 WY pronghorn, deer, and R elk draw

    I see that I didn’t actually catch my pronghorn tag in the preference point draw. I drew the only available random tag in the special draw. Got lucky.
