SF 2 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

Hunting licenses-weighted bonus points system.

This bill replaces Wyoming's current preference point system for ram bighorn sheep and antlered moose hunting licenses with a weighted bonus points system. Under the new system, applicants would earn points based on factors like residency duration or prior hunting history, which would increase their chances in random draws for these licenses. It removes the existing preference point drawing process for these species and requires the wildlife commission to create specific rules for calculating the weighted points. The change directly affects hunters applying for these two specific big game licenses, aiming to adjust how license allocation is prioritized.
