Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Wyoming season so far...

Been sort of an average season so far, but lots of fun despite the weather. Been challenging, in particular when you choose to not tear the chit out of the roads. Managed to make the most of the days in between the storms and/or hiking from the blacktop.

Did a quick 2 day deer/bear hunt. Saw 14 bears in 2 days, shot this one with my new 7-08 and 140 accubonds:



Next was helping a friend from AK with his 2 bucks:





I shot one on my additional tag as well:



Next was some friends from AZ, the pronghorns took it on the chin:

I watched these antelope most all season and they didnt get hunted...perfect for my buddy Ron:





My buddy Monty shot this guy the next day:

Later the same day, another AZ friend shot this one. I lasered it at 397 and he punched a bullet through the heart with his 257 wby:

The next day my wife shot this one at 50 yards with her 7-08:

A couple days ago I found this one, couldnt resist with the crooked horn. Unusual bucks rarely make it long enough to even interest me, most are shot when they're young. Shot with 7-08 140 accubonds at 50 yards.

Headed out in the morning for elk hunting...the Wyoming wildife is suffering from the furlough, and with no end in sight, its going to get even more grim.
