I was awarded a point when I didn't draw sheep and moose. Maybe they changed it for certain species or for nonresidents, but I don't think so.

You should have two then. As mentioned before they haven't updated it yet. The draw results for available June 20th, and the last update date us June 19th, so they haven't been updated since the draw.
How to purchase Wyoming preference points
Don't miss out if you plan on hunting Wyoming down the road
I can't find where it explicitly states in the reg that you can ONLY purchase points for deer, elk, and antelope, but that is the case. it does imply it, however, see page 14 "For nonresident full price elk, full price deer and full price antelope, preference points can be accumulated by purchasing a preference point during the preference point application period as per the dates on page 4."
You can still accumulate points by submitting an app for moose and sheep - see page 13 of the wyo link

Sure enough, looks like I am wrong. So you if you don't draw for moose or sheep, they automatically award you a point, but not for deer, elk or antelope. Has this always been the case? Nevermind, just looked. New for this year.How to purchase Wyoming preference points

I called Game & Fish and they said the point totals should be updated around the end of November.

What a problem to have!
10 elk and 9 pronghorn for me. I never planned on having this many points but life happens and for a few years I wasn’t able to hunt as I had planned. Now I’m holding out for two units that will most likely be once in a lifetime tags.

I have Max for deer and antelope, daughter has max for all 3 species, wife has 9 for all 3. Brother is going to use his 6 antelope this year. He quit hunting 30 years ago and I finally convinced him to go.

I actually went a couple years ago on a second choice for lope. Just waiting to go into a better unit than we have hunted in the past decade.

Hard not to bank points when you're chasing stones and bighorns every year, pronghorn in AB, and various other mountain hunts like fly in caribou and moose haha. Good problems to have!

If you bought in August and it shows as of June don’t you just add 1 to each species you bought?
I mean, at least it says June. I’d be concerned if totals were wrong and it didn’t cite that date.
If I recall correctly it’s always taken a while to update. Don’t remember how long...
