First come, first served leftover licenses went on sale the early morning of July 17, on the Wyoming Game and Fish Department license and application page and at regional offices.
According to the Department, the licenses represent the remaining antelope, elk and deer licenses following the leftover draw.
Game and Fish License Section Manager Joshua Moulton said over-the-counter license availability changes each year based on what hunters applied for and received in the initial and leftover draws.
Hunters buying over-the-counter leftover licenses are encouraged to pay close attention to the area and license type. During an appearance on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse, Game and Fish Public Information Specialist for the Sheridan Regional Office, Christina Schmidt, advised potential buyers to research hunt areas and obtain landowner permission for a place to hunt before one applies.
