I moved to Wyoming in March of 2016 to work at a state park and found myself as a "man without a land" since it takes an entire year to become a resident for hunting purposes in Wyoming.
I became a resident this year just in time to hunt turkeys in April and May. Unfortunately, I have missed two turkeys with my new Hoyt Pro Defiant 34 and the season ends this week. This was my first time hunting turkeys and I made all the rookie mistakes.
I applied for type 1 elk and antelope, and type 3 whitetail deer in eastern Wyoming where I live. I will most likely draw the whitetail deer permit and probably my second choice permit for antelope. I will also get a general deer permit and time permitting a general elk permit.
I applied with four bonus points for a non-resident rifle deer tag for the Henry Mountains and I bought my 17th and 13th points for elk and mountain goats in Utah. Depending on which family members draw good tags in Utah I may end up in my home state as well this fall.
I hope you enjoy following my posts this year as I explore the great state of Wyoming with my Hoyt in my hand.
