We drew unit 18 archery elk last year and were unsuccesful. Can we apply again this year or do we need to wait a year?

Answer: 
There is a waiting period if it was an antlered-only hunt: A person whose name was drawn in an antlered-only controlled deer hunt may  not apply for any other controlled antlered-only deer hunt for one year  except for the second deer, elk and pronghorn application period and leftover controlled hunt drawings or sales. • For example, a hunter who drew a tag in an antlered-only deer hunt in 2012, cannot apply for another antlered only deer hunt until 2014, in the first application period. However, they can apply for another antlered deer hunt in the 2013 season during the second application period. • This waiting period also applies to antlered-only controlled elk hunts.
