Two men who live in Wheatland operate this hunt. The outfitters like to take three to five hunters a year. One year they drew seven hunters but produced six of the bulls within a day and the seventh bull a few days later. "There are a lot of 300 to 340 class bulls on our leases," one of the outfitters said. "It's not a good place to look for a Boone and Crockett record-book bull, but we have killed elk up to 390. It's more realistic to hold out for a nice, mature 6x6 bull. We have one huge ranch that has a ton of elk on it, and we get to hunt them early, starting Oct. 1, so they're usually still bugling." You must apply by Feb. 1 for a tag. We offer this hunt through the Quality Hunting Unit Service. The hunts are fully outfitted and last seven days. Lodging and meals are included. Most of the hunting is done from four-wheel-drive trucks. Locating animals and then making a good stalk is an effective way to hunt the open country of southeastern Wyoming.
