I will meet you at your hotel in the morning and you will follow me to the hunting ground. (I do not provide transportation.) We will set the decoys and hunt until limits are reached, or until 1:00 o'clock. (Wyoming hunting laws allow goose hunting only until 1:00 o'clock.) I have included a list of afternoon activities from which you may choose. Many clients simply like to take a nap, and then follow me later in the afternoon while I scout for our next day's hunt!

Afternoon Activities Pheasant Hunting: Although there are not a lot of pheasant in this area, there are some, and I would be happy to point out the public areas. There are also a couple of excellent commercial pheasant and chucker preserves in the area. Dogs are really a must for this, and mine are available for hire. (My dogs are exceptional upland bird dogs as well as waterfowl retrievers.)

Sporting Clays: There is a great little sporting clays range in town, which provides not only fun, but excellent shooting practice as well. Afternoon duck hunts are available when the season is open November 5th to January 15th.
