Outside the Park it might take 10-15 years for a tag then if you draw you have to wait 10 years to even apply again. You can draw a cow tag easier but a bull tag is a real prize here.

I never said I couldn't stand the Sturgis crowd, I just want to get a feel for the area 11/12 months of the year and not pay inflated prices for a recon visit. I'm still young enough to enjoy an occasional throw-down party. Thanks for all the recommendations, I'll do some map and internet research and narrow down our agenda. Wyoming is definitely on the list, just breaking the research in to manageable chunks. We'll visit my buddy in Casper during this trip just to see it. Last edited by trap-alaska; 01/26/21 11:59 AM.

Call me if you get that park tag. I call the park home.

Hunted a lot of turkey in the park I had a few late season archery tags my buddy drew the early tag the year before he died we had a blast getting his elk.
