Not a designated wilderness area. If you’re in a wilderness area in Wyoming, you have to hunt with an outfitter. Weird regulation.

Yeah, me and my boys are planning a hunt next year and worried about the hunting areas in Wyoming that are not wilderness.  Did you see anybody 4.5 miles in?

I did see several other hunters and there was a huge herd of sheep where I was. I still saw elk every day but they seemed to be adjusting to those pressures. I had to adjust as well.

We’ll done!  Do you have enough pref points to draw a bull tag there in the future?  Sounds like you would have a good chance at a bull there too.

I haven’t collected any Wyoming points, which is ok with me. I love seeing those big bulls but they taste about the same as a cow and I don’t have wall space for any more antlers. Cows, for me, provide the same level of adventure, which is why I hunt.

I like that answer.
I can afford to shoot most any bow I like.  And I like Primal Tech bows.
