[QUOTE="wjohnson1983, post: 4220550, member: 12435"] Some of you that go out west on a regular basis school me on how to pick a hunting unit and the process you go through to do it? This would be a DIY public land for me. I would probably start with just antelope since it would be my first time out. I lived in Alaska for 4.5 years and did the moose/caribou thing, so the processing/packing/camping aspect won't be new for me. I have 5 preference points for antelope and 3 for deer in WY. Originally I had a friend in CO that went to WY every year to hunt, and I was going with him. He has since moved to AK. I noticed that the draw for antelope this year is through May 31st, but I'm probably late in the game to pick something and go this year. So all this information gathering is probably for next fall. I do bow hunt, but I would probably choose to go during rifle season because of the time/money of going out there. If someone is close to Huntsville, AL and wants to get to know each other, I wouldn't be completely opposed to applying as a party and splitting travel cost. On a side note, is the elk hunting in WY worth applying for preference points or do I need to look at other states? I have one preference point in CO for elk, but I was going with the same friend as above. So I haven't applied for another point the last 2 years. [/QUOTE]
