Do we still wait for July to purchase our elk, deer and antelope points? Nonresident

Yes. But they've extended the deadline to 10/31. OTOH, if you apply for a tag, you will get a bonus point once the draw is done.

Don't know where you got that one from! There is no such thing as a bonus point in Wyoming and never has been. You either pay for your PP when you apply in the draw during that application period or wait until the PP application period mentioned above to buy it. If you draw your first choice in any drawing, your PPs go back to zero for the following year and you start all over.

I'm pretty sure Kyle understands how it works. :-)

Sounds to me like you are both saying the same thing...except it is a Preference Point and not a Bonus point.

Joe...exactly. That said, bonus points and preference points are two different animals, hence the confusion.

Also, if you put the money in for a preference point when you do the draw, you will get that money back if you draw your first choice. I like to do it that way so I don't have to worry about forgetting in the fall.

I use the refunded $50 to purchase my 3 stamps and toss in a little $$ more to finalize purchase.
Good luck, Robb
