The
State of Wyoming does a great job of managing its wildlife and that
is why the hunting is so good. In order to manage its wildlife they
limit hunting and divide the state into many different areas. An elk
hunting license may only be good in one small part of the state. YOU
MUST GET IT RIGHT! This can get complicated in filling out the
license application.
Wyoming
Game and Fish use a lottery system for issuing elk hunting licenses.
They accept applications in the month of January. In January, we
will contact all of the hunters that have reservations with us for
the fall of that year and we will help at that time.
The first
thing to do is to make reservations with us for your hunting
expedition. To do this we require a $1500.00 deposit. You can go to
Book a Hunt to read more about this.
There
are two ways to put in your application to Wyoming Game and Fish.
One is their online application and the other is the paper
application.
In
the past few years, we have gotten away from the paper application.
The online process works great. It take about 15 minutes for me to
walk our hunters through the process. When they are finished, they
simply print their receipt and fax it or scan and email to my office.
At that time, we can review it to make sure that it is done
correctly.
License
costs:
Special
Elk License: $1057.00
Application Fee: $14.00
Preference Point:$50.00
Total: $1121.00
The
nonresident special elk hunting license is now $1057.00 plus an
application fee of $14.00 plus $50.00 for a preference point which
brings the total amount to $1121.00. If you draw a license in the
lottery, you will be refunded $50.00 for the preference point. If
you do not draw a license, you will be refunded $1057.00 and you will
have a preference point going into the draw for the next year.
Just
remember, we will walk all of the hunters through this process in
January.
In
the months of July, August and September, hunters should to the
Wyoming Game and Fish web sitehttp://gf.state.wy.us/wildlife/hunting/index.aspand purchase a preference point. Preference points greatly help
drawing an elk tag.
