…. did you put in for the special?

Guilty here!

 

[SaskHunter]

1 point in Special YOLO!

Regular draw for me.

I was surprised that I almost didn't. I've been putting in for the special since 2009 but really contemplated switching to regular this year.

I have 2 points and am almost positive I could draw a west general tag with that but for now I put in for a harder to draw unit instead. With the other opportunities that I have, I just wasn't sure the general tag was worth $2,000.

 

[SaskHunter]

Regular draw for me.

WTF dude, I thought we applied together in the Special?!?!

My son put in the regular draw with 10 points. I’ll be going with him if he draws. Next year I’ll burn my 11 points and he will go along.
then onto our deer points.with our plan and points in other states we should be hunting somewhere for the next half dozen years or more.

I put in for LE unit in the special draw but don't really expect to get it.

Edited to add this is with 15 points.

 

[rjthehunter]

Regular here. I think odds will be quite a bit better for special this year.

I applied for both of my NR nephews, one regular price, one youth fee...barely $1k total.

They're being priced out.

To be fair, that youth price for a bull tag is a ridiculously good value (best one there is?). I'm to blame for convincing 5 different dads to put their kids name in the hat for a low draw odds unit

Regular, max pts

 

[WildWill]

Went regular with my mighty 1 point in the general. I got enough else going on this year didn't think it was necessary to go special for a slightly better chance in the random. Honestly more excited about drawing my type 6 tag.

I’m just buying another point, because I know that as a NR my points will eventually guarantee me the tag I want.

That's a different, but good perspective. Never thought of it that way.

 

[tormenter]

Regular - I won't draw this year. I'm down to a couple of hunts in AZ/CO/WY that I will plan my fall around and won't consider the special unless I think I need to hunt that species that year and the odds look favorable if I apply for the Special.

 

[TheTone]

Decided to do points only again this year. Will probably try for a pronghorn tag later and only so much vacation available in the fall

 

[Addicting]

-6 for me and my kid.

I will say a -4 @ 100% odds for a kid is a good deal.

Residents don't have that benefit. Man is Wyoming nice to NR's

 

[Baerman]
