Wyo Wildlife Task Force and the new outfitter/landowner draw proposal

Buzz & Jeff's late season adventure!
With late cow elk season upon us, Buzz and I each had a third unfilled tag left. Of course, with elk management Wyoming style being very important to both of us, we made a plan. Our plan was to meet halfway between our respective towns at 5:30 am sharp the next morning. At about 6:15 am I began... -

My daughter's 17" Wyo antelope
My daughter Lindsey's favorite big game animal is antelope. She loves the hunt so much, each year she applies for a 100% draw area to guarantee her hunt. Most years she shoots a good solid mature buck and in her teens took a great 81" gross buck and has the 'scope bite' scar to prove it...
