2021 draw results

[whitewalrus]

No pronghorn in the secondary draw for me. I'm still going though, because two new hunter buddies some how drew doe tags on zero points.

They draw in the primary I assume? The only preference in the secondary is youth.

Keep checking the leftover tags. There are always some returned and given that people don?t pay for the tags in the 1st draw, maybe the same will happen in the second.

Otherwise I?ve had the most fun hunting being the guy without the tag.

I was able to put in for the same tag as my buddies drew, I just wasn't successful is what I meant. I really thought there was going to be a lot more variety for the second draw than there was, like 2nd rifle cow elk in my other unit, for example, but there wasn't.

I put in for 5 different pronghorn tags in the 2nd draw and didn't get any of them.. Also put in for two deer, wasn't really expecting my first choice but was surprised I didn't get the second, was an obscure south eastern Co white tail tag that always has left overs every year. Seems that people on some of the Facebook groups were just putting in for anything without understanding what it was. One guy posted that he drew an Elk tag for 140 and had done some research on OnX and was asking for some ideas of where to start.. I told him that the only public land was Fisher Peak State Park and Lake Dorothy State Wildlife Area.. Good Luck! I feel like when Colorado dropped the requirement for up front payment that it has just opened up the doors for anyone and everyone to throw their hat in to the ring whether they know what they are doing or not. On top of that I've dozens of people picking up tags that are private land only tags or whatnot without having any understanding of what that means and then asking online if anyone knows of a good spot..

Maybe a lot of new people to the state? There were always people who would get tags for places they knew so little about. I think the internet may have made it worse.

I do wish they went back to the prepay and refund system as it would keep tags from not being assigned to people who won?t pay for them.

Yeah, do you know anything about Wyoming doe antelope tags?

I used to deer hunt annually as a resident of anther state but after moving to Colorado and witnessing the hoops that one had to jump through in any decent area, I lost interest in hunting anything large in Colorado.

Yeah they are probably the most affordable tag to nonresidents.

Just figured out of state fees would really make it even worse than CO.

I think you can get two, and they are only something like $40/ea. I just don't know anything about where to go in Wyoming. I need to do more research. I just got an enormous freezer and need to fill it with meat.
