How does Wyoming's draw use points?
WGFD gives a preference point drawing advantage for nonresident antelope, deer and elk and for resident and nonresident moose; Chapter 44 allocates not less than 75% of nonresident special and regular licenses to a preference point drawing and up to 25% to a random drawing, applicants with the most points are selected first, and residents draw antelope, deer and elk by random drawing with no points.
