1998 19a and 2020 19a might aswell be in different universes.

Unit 1 is loaded with small bucks and a few big ones. Not unlike most other units. The 2 units have really poor rainfall over the last 10 years coupled with 40 acre development. Not ideal for recruitment or herd building. The tag reduction may help? The 2 units typically have long, thin horn with small cutters. Impressive to see but don't score well. A couple years ago a hunter asked for access to our ranch to hunt a "sure fire" book buck. I wasn't aware of any that big but he assured me he was seeing them- Opening day he killed a really pretty 14" buck that would go 75".

Thanks for granting him access anyway. It seems to get harder and harder every year.

Din't say the quality was still there. Not much pressure if you hunt the ranches.

Could draw 57, 64 or 68.  Would’ve been enough for 61 a couple years ago but they cut the tags in half last year.  Good reason to not wait around.  He’ll never have the points to draw 60 but a book buck can come from any of those units.

Anyone have any recommendations on where I should apply with 5 points in Wyoming? Not concerned with a trophy unit just want good public access. I feel I can dig up a good buck if I have a lot of public land to cover. Any information appreciated as this is my first time applying for WY.

Lotsa units with good public access in that tier.  I would get OnX for your phone if you don’t already have it.  Combine that with a gohunt or hunterstrailhead membership and you can cruise through and find a unit that works for you and you can draw.  Remember to search for units that could be drawn with 4pts last year as that’s what you had if you want a guarantee.

Did you buy your point after the draw?   A lot of people are figuring out they didn’t issue points in the draw if you didn’t get drawn.  You had to go back and purchase your point.

If you don’t draw your first choic-you get a point
