Splitting points in WY

[Johnny Bravo]

It looks like WY point sharing is real, I was at the sportsman expo yesterday and one guy offered me to share my 10 points for guided hunt, I just have to pay small fee. This idea is not leaving my head now, I was planning to built points for few more years, but don't know what my points will be worth in couple years, I mean will I be able to draw better units with 12-14 points than now with 10?

You share your points and YOU have to pay a fee? Um, no…

In 3-4 years you'll be able to draw a few units that are currently taking 11 and there will be a unit or two that currently take 10 that you can't draw. One thing is certain, it'll cost more in 3-4.

Building points for a few more years sounds great until the NR elk unit quotas get cut in half and your points will have half their value. Not to mention point creep. I am at 9 elk points now and am burning them on a 100-4 cow tag. I am coming up on 60 yrs old and once I burn them I am never buying another Wyoming elk point. I’ve never elk hunted for myself. This is a one and done for elk. I also have 10 and 11 points for deer and antelope with a plan to do one in 2026 and the other in 2027. After that any trips to Wyoming will be for fishing in the Yellowstone area.

Sounds to me like you should have a shirt made that says I have 9 nr Wyoming elk points and go wonder around a expo wearing it
