Wyoming Goes To Regions for NR Elk Tags
By Todd Helms
Well the grapevine banter about Wyoming moving to “Regions” for Non-Resident General Elk tags is no longer scuttlebutt. Last week Wyoming Game and Fish released “Know before you apply: Nonresident elk changes for 2024” and revealed the move to regions for general non-resident elk tags.
In short, the WYGFD created three regions of general elk units: Eastern, Southern and Western. Non-resident general elk applicants must apply for a region and if successfully drawn will be limited to hunting within that region instead of having the ability to hunt any general area in the state. If I had to guess, I’d bet that in the years to come these regions will be shrunk into subregions as the precedent has now been set.
Non-resident General Elk License Quotas have been set as follows: Eastern Region – 500, Southern Region – 1050, Western Region – 2775.
This change DOES NOT affect general resident tags. To read more visit the link below.
What’s your take – was this a good move by WYGFD?

How To Build a SOLID Western Application Hunt Strategy
In this episode Brian and Dan sit down for a conversation all about western applications. They talk over their own strategy and how they get quality tags. They also answer listener questions all about applications. They talk about 0 point or OTC tags, low point tags and the tough to draw lotto tags. They dive into research and tools you can use to find the right tag that fits your wants and criteria. A great conversation between the two and another long episode as they had so much to cover.
