Wyoming bound. WooHoo!!
« on: July 13, 2009, 04:42:47 PM »
I've been wanting to get to Wyoming or Montana for pronghorns for a long time but all my buds bail on me when it's time to apply for the tags. I don't want to go on a DIY hunt that far away all alone as I don't know where to even start so I bit the bullet and decided to do a 3 day hunt with a guide. If I tag early, we chase yotes :rockin: and / or shoot P-dogs  :mgun:  This will be a real change for me I've never been on a guided hunt and not sure what to expect but I sure am excited. I feel very awkward being spoiled and letting everyone else do all the work but thats what I'm paying for I guess. WOOHOO!!!!

DIY for me in the Buffalo area, been there done that for the last couple of years, you will have a blast, lots of game and plenty of public land. Congrats and enjoy.

Gutpile, do you have to choose a unit for them in Wyoming?

i'll speak for him and say yes you do...

the more public land in the units the lower the odds of drawing...there are units with 100% odds but they are mostly comprised of private land.

Not sure exactly how it works but I guess it's a landowner tag or something of the sort.

It's out of Buffalo. I'll be shooting my Remmy CDL Limited edition .260. Not sure of the load, I havent worked one up yet. I'll be bringing my 220 swift and .223 for yote busting and P-dogs. Need to get loading. I have about 300 rounds for the AR and 200 or so for the swift. From what I hear 1000 rounds isn't uncommon.

Here's the .260.Havent scoped it yet. Bought it back in Feb but work got busy so I havent had a chance to fiddle with it.

You Dog! Wish I was going. :'(

 I think you should take that 6.5-06. The possibilities of long range shots are high.

When are you going?

There are thousands of them in the Buffalo area. M-Ray and I will be just north of there in November, when will you be down there?
