All have archery tags that can be drawn the 1st year, all are good, can be great.
If you're just looking to shoot any elk, small bull, cow, whatever, I'd definitely look towards colorado, or maybe even northern NM.
WY has some great elk, but as a non-res to hunt wilderness you would need a guide or resident to hunt with...

Been bowhunting Colorado for 10 years now....my hunting buddy and I have killed 14 elk, all on public land. There are a lot of elk per acre in Colorado in some of the draw units, and there are over-the-counter tags available. No grizzlies to deal with. But be ready to do some serious walking if you want to kill elk! Start getting in shape now.
Best of Luck,
Jeff
