Hunting Regulations

  • Large game hunters must wear orange or pink headgear, shirts, jackets, coats, vests, and sweaters. Rule suspended during archery season.
  • Born after January 1, 1966, Wyoming big game hunters must have a safety certificate.
  • Large game hunting requires fluorescent orange or pink hats, shirts, jackets, coats, vests, and sweaters. This regulation is lifted when archery is allowed.
  • Wyoming’s preference point system is available to non-resident hunters, except mountain goats and bison. Non-Canadians and Americans may utilize a point system for hunting moose and sheep. During the points-only application period, non-residents may only buy a point (July 1-October 31). Your preference points will be rounded up if your application is approved.
  • Elk, sheep, and moose licenses are 75% random, with the most preference points. The remaining 25% of non-resident hunts will be picked at random. First-time applicants are treated equally in the random draw. Licenses won’t be randomly assigned for hunts with less than four non-resident permits.
  • Sheep, moose, and elk may earn 27 points. Your scores reset every two years or if your first option is randomly assigned. Third- or fourth-choice elk won’t cost you points.
  • Under 18 and 11, and 12 years old may get a youth hunting license. Non-resident youth elk permits cost $115 to $290; deer, antelope, and turkey licenses cost $34 to $125. Deer, antelope, and elk earn young hunters $20. Wyoming Commission grants deer and antelope tags to nonprofits for ill children and teens under 20.
  • Bighorn sheep, mountain goats, elk, moose, and bison need 40 pounds. Crossbows are permitted during archery season if they meet certain requirements (90-pound draw, 16-inch bolt, 7/8-inch broadhead). Silencers are permitted but not full-auto firearms. Deer and antelope hunting need a 40-pound bow draw. Minimum.40 caliber muzzleloading rifle with expanding point bullets and 50 grains of black powder. Lenses magnify crossbows and muzzleloaders.
  • Non-residents may acquire Wyoming landowner elk tags. Only landowners’ families may transfer tags.

FAQ on WY Hunting Seasons

When does the Wyoming Hunting Season 2023-2024 begin?

The Wyoming Hunting Season 2023-2024 commences on September 1, 2023, for the general season. However, On August 15, 2023, several hunting seasons, such as the elk archery season, begin early.

What type of license do you require to hunt a Deer in Wyoming?

Wyoming offers limited and general deer hunting licenses. The license needed varies on the deer, hunting location, and weapon. Deer hunting permits for non-residents are regional. However, public land hunters and deer make it difficult to get some permits. Hunters may request permission to hunt on private property. The state chooses and distributes licenses yearly. Before hunting deer in Wyoming, check the licensing requirements.

What to do after harvesting a deer in Wyoming?

Wyoming’s Game and Fish Department compels hunters to report deer harvests. Hunters may meet this requirement by mailing a postcard, accessing the official website (https://wgfd.wyo.gov/Hunting/Harvest-Surveys), or phoning 1-800-216-0477. Wildlife management relies on harvest reports for conservation and sustainable hunting. Hunters help Wyoming maintain healthy deer populations and the hunting culture by quickly reporting their harvest.
