Can't buy points until the year he turns 12.

You have a few years - he has to be 12 to hunt or turn 12 by Dec 31st to buy preference points that year. The way point creep is going, a lot could change between now and then. Literally any area in Wyoming can be a good hunt if you have access. The areas with more access are in higher...

Welcome to the forum Brock! As your research narrows your areas down, feel free to ask questions. Most of us prefer PM's as information becomes specific but I think you will find several guys in the know willing to help you out. Thanks for your service!

It would be tight... https://www.menards.com/main/outdoors/outdoor-recreation/hunting-equipment/tree-stands-hunting-blinds/true-vision-solitude-17-ladder-treestand/tvls17g2/p-1544167696652.htm

Here one one that will be on the hit list. From late June so has a lot of growth left to happen. Thinking he will end up as a really nice bull when growth is finished.

I love to bow hunt elk. I'm fortunate to have hunted them for the past 30 years. They will likely always be at the top of my list, no matter how many I shoot.

Welcome to the forum. I have hunted there a few times many years ago and had good results. You should have no problem getting an upper 70s buck with that amount of time. The occasional 80"+ buck comes out of the area. We do see a few in the foothills but generally focus lower. Couldn't hurt...

As far as just fun, it has to be my old Rem 870. I really enjoy shooting trap and have won a few competitions with the old gun. Always fun to beat guys with 3k trapguns with my $250 WalMart special. Hunting, I love to shoot my Ruger 30-06. Pistol is my M&P shield in .40 cal.

I would help if I could but I am not very familiar with that area. I have had a lot of luck through the years contacting regional game wardens. Some of them have had a lead or two that turned into good permission. Worth a shot imo.

I drew a cow tag that should be fairly easy to fill. My wife was even excited about that. No antelope or deer tags I had any interest in.

Depending on the area, some of those tags are good for the entire area during archery and private only for the other seasons. The idea is the cows they want to manage are often on forest early in the season but end up on private by rifle season. One area they do this in that I am familiar with...

I would go to your archery shop to make sure you are shooting the correct spine of arrow for your draw weight and length. Here is a link that can help explain what this means- https://eastonarchery.com/2014/07/making-sense-of-arrow-spine/ Both expandables and fixed will work great for mule...

Cabela's and bass pro do that on purpose!

Beautiful rifle! Congrats... I have a friend shooting the 145 grain Hornady precision hunter with good results. Might be worth a try. https://www.hornady.com/ammunition/rifle/270-win-145-gr-eld-x-precision-hunter#!/

My 7/1 weight was 251. I'm 6'2" with a big frame- I feel great under 240 so my goal is 235 by 8/28 when I leave for Wyoming. I'll hit it easily if my friends would quit throwing backyard BBQ's with coolers full of everything bad.

I have coached baseball for over 20 years on the side. My current team is a competitive 12u travel team. My youngest is our ace. I also umpire various levels when not coaching. We love to fish and hike during the spring and summer. I like to play high level Texas Holdem. I have had a...

That could have ended really bad for the guys in the boat.

I'm going hunting... even if it means a temporary residency switch. Colorado has average 200 cases a day over the last month. Pretty low per capita. Wyoming has similar per capita numbers with about 30 new per day. Unless things get drastically worse, hunts will be allowed. If they do, i...

The problem is even if they are given the right to manage them in the beginning, those right can be taken away at the federal level as soon as the wrong judge gets the right case. No thank you. In all seriousness, why would you want them introduced to begin with, even if states could manage...

I can't think of a single good reason to introduce apex predators into areas where they don't currently reside. I'm also against allowing them to expand out of the areas they currently inhabit. A single wolf will kill between 12-25 elk per year. Let that sink in. 1200 wolves can kill as many...
