There’s one more chance for residents and nonresidents to get a limited-quota elk, deer and antelope license through the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s leftover license draw. The application period closes June 28.
The leftover draw has different rules than the initial draw:
- There is no quota split. Residents and nonresidents all draw from the same quota.
- Residents and nonresidents can apply together in a party (up to six hunters) for licenses.
- There are no application fees.
- Preference points cannot be used, and an applicant will not lose preference points if a leftover license is drawn.
- License availability is based on what is not allocated in the initial draw. The leftover draw does not have any influence on the initial draw.
The availability of leftover licenses changes from year-to-year for all species and are based on what hunters applied for and received in the initial draw. Many of the licenses available are in areas with limited public access.
**If you already submitted your application, thanks! We have it.**
