Finally Introducing Myself

[LSL57]

I actually signed up for this site a year or so ago. Doing research for hunting gear for upland game and new whitetail and turkey gear.
Started buying preference points for Antelope and Elk in Wyoming. Now thinking I need to plan a Bear hunt.

Used to hunt a lot but sort of fell off. Picking it back up to get my kids outside. And to get myself back out in nature.

Welcome aboard.

Antelope used to be the easy entry into western hunting but that changed over the covid years. Now you need pref pts for most of the places you could draw in the random as a non-res with no pts. A bear hunt is a great option with reasonably priced OTC tags available. DIY bear is a lot harder than DIY antelope though. An outfitted spring bear hunt is a very similar experience to an elk hunt at about 1/2 the cost. Remote camps, horseback access to the camp and riding every day, it is a fun hunt.
