Thanks, I just wondered, they said the draw will be earlier now because of so many entering on line. The draw is to be the 24th of June for what I hear. I tried my pals nonres. lic. also and there was no response. They are changing their methods.\
Sweetwater, from what I understood, they were going to make the draws all at once, but I could have easily misunderstood. I seldom missed on the permits I want except for moose, sheep etc. Now, I have an elk License I really like to draw it is private land, cow only, but the season opens sept.1. I have been gettting it half the time, so this should be my year. The season lasts until Jan. I think, but I like getting one early so I can duck hunt, birdhunt and hunt coyotes.
Shot a few antelope with my pistols, mostly a .44 Bisley Ruger, but have only used a rifle the last 10 years. I now have a couple .44 Smiths so I may give them a try this season.
