How does the game “Duck Hunt” work?

November 11th, 2011 1 comment

Question by VincentC: How does the game “Duck Hunt” work?
I am fairly tech-savvy, but I have wondered for quite a while how the old “Duck Hunt” game for the NES system works. There is no sensor bar for the television, so there doesn’t seem to be a way for the gun’s beam to be intercepted or read by the television. So how can the game register that you are shooting in a certain place when there is nothing to pick up the gun’s firing?

This is just something that has always confused me.

I guess it’s something to do with the light gun itself.

Why is it legal to “hunt” captive animals, while bear baiting and rooster fighting are illegal?

October 21st, 2011 1 comment

Question by Tom D: Why is it legal to “hunt” captive animals, while bear baiting and rooster fighting are illegal?
First of all, let’s clarify my position: I support traditional hunting and fishing, and champion the concept of sportsmanship and stewardship of natural resources. I enjoy eating meat, and appreciate ecology and the natural beauty of fauna. Traditional hunting has many beneficial aspects.

Private hunting reserves – game ranches – deer farms: these are commercial sites where “hunters” pay to kill captive animals. Presumably the outcome is guaranteed by the proprietors.

A fighting cock has a chance to survive. A captive bear has a chance to kill one of its attackers. These barbaric “sports” have been outlawed for centuries in most places.

What could be the motive to “hunt” captive animals, other than the joy of seeing something die? Do you think of someone as more manly who kills captive animals on hunting ranches? Am I missing some redeeming aspect of this activity?

Maybe by releasing their agression on an animal, they avoid doing so on a fellow human? Or does it stimulate it?
Sorry – Yahoo has chosen to edit my traditional term for the male rooster and replace it with askerisks. It wasn’t my choice to spell it this way.
Interesting point, “Mass brain”. Maybe we should start a discussion on the morality of the situation depicted in the movie “The Running Man”, with politicians or lawyers instead of criminals as the targets… There are some parallels.
Good answer there, “DamDawg”. I guess it all hinges on the definition of “shooting fish in a barrel” and how you define it.

I haven’t researched this too much, but my understanding is that most of these private reserves are pretty close to what you are describing here. Do you have any data to share?

I have seen some video footage of bow-and-arrow “hunters” shooting deer in a manner that looked very cruel and very much like “shooting fish in a barrel”.

I think that, if the proprietor guarantees the outcome, then it is more likely to be unsporting.
Hey There Wazant1 -

You too have some interesting points. If you are a traditional hunter, I respect that, as I previously stated.

You discussed the increasing efficiency of hunting techniques. I wonder how much something is a “sport” when the outcome is guaranteed.

Why is it fun to shoot an animal under controlled conditions but not at a slaughterhouse? How close do the two facilities need to become before we cross the line?

Have you heard about the internet game preserves, where you can kill an animal from the internet, via robotically controlled rifle? Has that crossed the line?

Best answer:

Answer by mass.brain
It’s the ultimate rich guy sport. Think about Dick Cheney, he nearly bagged himself a rich old businessman at one of those hunts. The ultimate trophy.

Master Outdoorsman J. Wayne Fears Authors Book to Help Deer Hunters Learn to Hunt Clear Cuts with Success











How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully

Pottstown, PA (Vocus) April 6, 2010

Clear cuts, much to the surprise of many hunters, can be a trophy hunter’s bonanza. To be successful, the hunter must understand the role clear cuts play in the deer’s overall habitat, and how to hunt the various stages of clear cut growth.

Author and master outdoorsman, J. Wayne Fears, has written a book that examines the growth stages of clear cuts, the value each stage is to the deer, and the various ways to effectively hunt each stage from year one through 30. This 144-page paperback also addresses long-range shooting techniques and how to hunt corridors found in clear cuts.

How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully is a guidebook to help you learn how to harvest big whitetail bucks in a clear cut by using the right hunting technique at the right time. Author J. Wayne Fears states, “One of the challenges to hunting a clear cut for a period of years, is that each year the forest changes and requires that the hunter adapt. Those who can adapt will find clear cuts, in good deer country, to be a new source of hunting where the woods aren’t crowded with hunters and the bucks grow big.” How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully tells you how.

How Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully is available for $ 8.95 at http://www.protoolindustries.net.

J. Wayne Fears has worked with white-tailed deer and deer habitat improvement for four decades. For almost ten years, Wayne was the Forest Recreation Manager for a major paper corporation where he was responsible for managing one-half million acres for deer. He has written a number of books on deer hunting and management including Hunting Whitetails Successfully, which sold over 500,000 copies. How to Hunt Clear Cuts Successfully is the second of a series of guidebooks on deer hunting and management Fears is writing for Pro Tool Industries.

Hunt Cellars to Feature its Famous Cult Wines in DC Wine Expo Seminar











Fine Wine Bottle


Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) March 5, 2008

David Hunt and his winery, “Hunt Cellars” are no strangers to fine wine tastings and seminars. David Hunt has traveled across the nation showcasing his premium wines at various expos and events. Most recently, he was asked to display his wines along with his wealth of knowledge regarding premium wines at the Washington DC Wine Expo.

“Hunt Cellars was indeed honored to be asked to do a seminar at such a prestigious event,” said David Hunt, Winemaker. “We believe it will help draw more attention to all of the great wineries in Paso Robles, and all the wonderful wines coming out of this region”.

Last year Hunt also gave the seminar “Blue Cheese and Chocolates from Around The World Paired with Hunt Cellars Varietal Ports”, a sold out event that earned rave reviews. David Hunt is out to prove that California wines are among the best in the world. Hunt Cellars has some of the highest scoring Ports ever produced in California with its 2000 Tawny Port “Oldie But Goodie” scoring 93 Points, and Cabernet Port “Good Vibrations” Scoring 90 Points. Hunt Cellars also received a 93 score for its “Rocketman Zin” and a 92 score for its Destiny Vineyards Reserve Zin, as well as numerous gold Medals. In the March issue of Wine Enthusiast, Hunt Cellars’ Cabernet “Bon Vivant” scored 90 points.

According to Hunt, “These scores and such appreciation for our wines are exactly what we need to keep working ever harder to produce the greatest wines possible. Getting a 90 for our Cabernet in such a competitve arena is very special.”

Hunt Cellars put together an amazing seminar for the Expo. Hunt demonstrated his vineyards terroir and clones at the wine tasting by pouring 2 Cabernet side by side from different elevation from 1750 ft. to 2100 ft. Other pourings included Hunt’s “Unforgettable” Merlot, “Raging Bull” Syrah, Destiny Vineyard Zinfandel and a Hunt Cellars surprise wine, 6-year barrel-aged 2002 Syrah Port “Sweet Serenade Tawny style”, which was poured at the end paired with a delicious chocolate. These wines are some of Hunt Cellars’ finest Reserve wines and have received many prestigious awards.

This was a great opportunity to taste the very best of Paso Robles’ cult wines, from Bordeaux Reserves, Rhone and Zinfandel. Visitors had the chance to experience the amazing varietal distinction and learn how low yields and white calcareous soils concentrate fruit expression, plus the impact of weather, soils, water and other components that create the best wines from around the world.

Winemaker David Hunt guided visitors, step by step, with a sensory indulgence that showcased the incredible wine diversity from his highly acclaimed Vineyard, making this a tasting to be remembered.

Bill Hunt for Orange County Sheriff Sees Law Enforcement Support Pouring In

March 12th, 2011 Comments off



Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) April 30, 2010

Orange County Sheriffs candidate Bill Hunt is no stranger to law enforcement. And Law Enforcement Agencies around the county are proving it. Several Law Enforcement Agencies are showing their support for Hunt through donations and endorsements. In the last few days Hunt has received endorsements from Buena Park Police, La Habra Police, Laguna Beach Police, San Bernardino Deputy Sheriffs and The Orange County Deputy Sheriffs Association.

Bill was a Sheriffs Deputy for 21 years before leaving the department and pursuing work in the private sector. With the desire and support of the Deputies and other Law Enforcement Agencies Hunt decided to run for Orange County Sheriff in June 2010.

Recent polls show Hunt has higher name recognition than the Incumbent Sheriff and is gaining momentum as it gets closer to the primary election on June 8th. Much of this is due in part to the support of the Deputies Association endorsement. The endorsement comes on the heels of the Incumbent Sheriff publicly stating that the deputies association is supporting the wrong candidate. The recent vote of the association was in favor of Hunt 2 to 1 over Hutchens. The Hunt campaign says it’s a vote of no-confidence in the current sheriff that her own employees don’t want to continue under her watch. The Deputies are asking for another leader.

About Bill Hunt:

Hunt went into the army after high school where he quickly became an MP. After the military he went to college and received a masters in Negotiations and Conflict Management. He spent over 21 years within the Sheriffs Department including jails, patrol, investigations, training, narcotics, gangs, SWAT, management and Chief of Police of San Clemente. Hunt has 4 kids and a wife of over 20 years.

Treasure Adventure Releases Custom Downloadable Treasure Hunt Games

February 6th, 2011 Comments off

Oberlin, Ohio (PRWEB) April 27, 2006

After recently launching its treasure hunt web site in February of 2006, Treasure Adventure announces the release of its new interactive and ready-to-play custom treasure hunt games for children of all ages.

The co-founders, two game enthusiasts, developed the treasure hunts to fill an unmet need in response to a growing market interest in treasure hunting and theme parties. The company’s treasure hunts are unique from its competitors in that purchasers do not need to compose their own clues to solve, which can be the most difficult and time-consuming part of the game, nor are the clues too simplistic in nature.

Each game includes pre-made custom clues in a riddle and rhyme format, designed to encourage creative thinking and be more challenging than other games on the market, and each game can be instantly downloaded, printed, and played immediately at an affordable price for parties, family fun night, and just about any other group event. Treasure Adventure also offers themed hunts, such as classroom hunts for teachers, outdoor hunts, and vacation hunts.

Kaydee Grant, President, stated “Based on our initial game sales over the Easter holiday, overwhelmingly positive feedback, and the rapid increase in popularity and Page Rank in the short time since inception, I am confident we have a winning product, and will enjoy continued growth and success.” The company is already planning several new games to be released in July of this year.

Treasure Adventure also offers online free kids activities, legends of lost treasure, and comprehensive treasure hunting tips and resources to stimulate interest in the treasure hunting field.

Hunt Brothers? Pizza Helps One Lucky Winner Fuel Their Car and Their Stomach for a Year

February 3rd, 2011 Comments off




Nashville, TN (Vocus) December 15, 2008

Bill Holland, a customer at the Little Point Auto Truck Stop in Stilesville, Ind., is the grand prize winner of the inaugural Hunt Brothers® Pizza Free Fill-up Sweepstakes. Randomly selected from 41,168 entries, Holland will receive free Hunt Brothers® pizza and gasoline for one year courtesy of Hunt Brothers.

“The contest was an amazing success — not just for our winner, but for all of our participating convenience store locations,” said Scott Hunt, senior executive of Hunt Brothers Pizza. “With our company’s first nationwide sweepstakes, we were able to boost interest in our products and awareness of where our pizza can be found in communities all across the country. In the long run, that can translate into increased sales for all our convenience store partners.”

As the location with the winning sweepstakes contestant, the Little Point Auto Truck Stop will be the site for the prize presentation scheduled to take place Friday, December 12, at 1 p.m. Holland and the convenience store employees will be on hand for this momentous occasion.

Having never tried a Hunt Brothers Pizza, Holland noticed a tabletop display for the sweepstakes at the Little Point Auto Truck Stop near his home and signed up for the contest online that night. Soon after — but before he learned he was the winner — a night came when neither Holland nor his wife wanted to cook. He remembered Hunt Brothers from the contest and brought home a pizza.

“Turns out it was pretty doggone good,” said Holland. “We went back another three times before winning the contest, usually on Tuesday night when we’re taking care of our granddaughter.”

Holland, a former employee with a major manufacturing company in technological infrastructure, left his office job of 30 years to work with homeless teenagers at a nonprofit organization called Stepping Stones. The staff and volunteers at Stepping Stones help young men and women find a new home, earn a high school diploma, find employment or attend college.

Guided Hunt For Snow Geese

January 20th, 2011 Comments off

As a young boy growing up, I have fond memories of waking up in the wee hours of the morning to the sound of my Dad and my older brother getting themselves ready to go hunting. As I was much too young at the time to hunt, I would lay there and listen, peeking out of my room while they got ready, lining up their gear near the front door, hearing the soft chatter of their voices, I could feel the excitement coming from them, yes they were real men my Dad and big brother, real men loved

When to Hunt

January 10th, 2011 Comments off

For most people the answer to this question is when they can. It is dependent primarily upon the legal hunting dates. When you can get off from your job may be relevant too. There are hunt downers who work around deerhunt downing seasons and there are hunt downers who hunt down around their work schedules. Some people hunt year-round and others hunt only a hour or two. There are those who travel across states and around the world hunting deer at all times of the year, taking advantage of antithetic climates and seasons; there are those who scout and take note deer year-round even though they may actually hunt only one day or a couple of weeks each year. Most people must take time to hunt. They are not probable to let anything to intervene with their hunting time

Hunts in all states are organized to allow the deer ample time off from hunter pressure to bear their young and nurse them. Hunting from February through August is virtually non-existent for this reason. Full-blooded Native Americans have the proper to take deer anytime regardless of the season as part of their heritable propers

Deer seasons are scheduled in the fall throughout America. There are several reasons for this. The rut is well passed on, which makes the bucks less cagey and creates an advantage for the hunter. Also, it is only during the fall and aboriginal winter months that deer sport antlers, which most hunters choose. In older times it was when most of the farm work was executed that deer-hunting took place. The hunt down season was also regulated by when meat would not botch and could be posed in to render food for the winter months. Fall hunts were usually when there was an acceptable tracking snow, making it easier to hunt and also to turn up aroused deer. Animals were abdominous in the fall, having feasted on acorns, crops, and other matured mast food. Roads are stopped dead over, making them more come-at-able. Fawns are well evolved and most does are engendered. In the autumn there is an acute increase in deer activity which peaks in advanced fall with the engendering cycle and supreme acorn availability. All these conditions assisted to set up the tradition of fall deer hunting down

Quite apart from the biological reasons, the convenience of the hunter and the traditions of hunters are the chief factors in the establishment of the hunting season. The legislature is out to please the public, which is the voting public, of course, and they are the elected “public servants.”

Some farmers and entire communities keep Saturday or Sunday Sabbaths on which they do not hunt and allow no hunting on their lands. It is always best to respect these localised traditions. In some locations, Sunday hunting is not only ostracized but interdicted by local law in the form of ordinances. It doesn’t make for acceptable hunter relations with the common when a Sunday morning church service is holed by gunfire on the ridge behind the churchhouse

DAWN TO DARK

The majority of hunters like to be in position to hunt deer before daylight. Some troubled hunt downers are so intent upon aboriginal light hunt downing down that they come in the woods at midnight and sit down quietly until dawn in hopes that they will be undiscovered by the deer traveling into the area and be competent to see deer in the vicinity as soon as the sun comes up. This is, of course, traveling too far for most people, but getting there early might set you proper on top of deer when daylight comes. I am the type that likes the woods more than my citified life. It is no problems for me to enter before dawn and exit after gloomy. There is seldom a rush to get back home. Daylight has happened me roosted in a tree with deer rolled in the hay beneath more than once

The hunter who has prepared himself properly to enter the woods under cover of darkness to go to his hunting spot and wait for sunrise has the most intensely exciting hunt. Spotting the dignified dream buck as he becomes circumpolar through the fog and filtrating light is spectacular. Arriving at a stand up in darkness without alarming the deer in the area can indeed intend that deer are proper under your nose. Quietly coming in the woods with deer-like footsteps and with a flashlight kept indicated to the ground and utilized minimally can really be the first step in the greatest of hunts

Proper reconnoitering allows hunters to bask the most success with the least effort in the least amount of time

If you take your deer in aboriginal morning, you will have the entire day gone forth to bask the after-hunt down experiences, dress and uphold the deer, or hunt down for another deer

Remember not to shine your car lights into the area and not to slam your car doors

It is important to carry a flashlight whenever you are in the woods in darkness, but keep it aimed at the ground so as not to arouse the deer but to notify other hunters of your presence. Never take for granted that there are no other hunters about! You can demote heads with another hunter in the most out of the blue places at any time. Simply that there were no other vehicles about means little. If you could debar the flashlight when coming in the woods pre-dawn it would be to your hunting down advantage. Safety must come first. Carry a flashlight. There is no deer worthy deceasing for

The transition from the darkest hour before the dawn into the slowly increasing light is one of the best experiences in deer hunting. It is impressive. It is a fresh dawn. The entire woods is reverberant with the sounds of acceptable morning

During gun season, and especially on opening morning at sunrise, you will hear guns going off in the hills that excite the imagination and may stir up visions of the Civil War

One drawback is that it is usually quite cold in early morning, and sunrise does not produce expected warmth. It is during this transition period that shivers can make you agitate and botch your unwavering shot. Take it easygoing in your aboriginal morning trek, being aware not to get heated up up.

Most states stipulate that the hunter may take deer no earlier than one half-hour before legal sunrise and no later than one half-hour after legal sunset. It is an acceptable idea to happen out just what time court-ordered sunrise and sunset are for the given day of the hunt down. This is particularly truthful for hunts on tightly modulated government lands. Terrain differences let sunlight to filter in later or earlier in some locations than others. Deep valleys have later sunrises and earlier sunsets. The rising sun in the east may be delayed by a hour or more by some topographical obstruction much as a hill, and the same may be true of the sunset. Overcast days are sluggish lighting and fast altering

In some popular hunting locations such as the public hunting areas of state forests and military installations, especially those where hunters are monitored by check stations upon leaving for the hunt and departing, officials are equipped with a device which can determine almost the exact time that an animal was shot. The test is reputed to gauge the time of kill within 15 minutes with accuracy. When it is surmised that an animal was shot before court-ordered hunting time, this test can be administrated and utilized in court as evidence. All game wardens are able of utilizing this test

What to Hunt in What Season?

January 9th, 2011 Comments off

Many of the average questions that hunt downers inquire have to do with what types of birds, animals, or other prey to hunt down during a careful hunt downing down season or time of year. This is especially truthful for those who may be concerned in hunting a type of prey that they have never hunted down before or for those who may be completely fresh to the sport of hunting and not cognize what to hunt during which seasons

The choice of what to hunt down and when to hunt down it will usually count upon a variety of factors. But there is a very easygoing and pragmatic way to figure out what to hunt during a careful time of year. Just check up on with the localised wildlife authorities that are in charge of publishing hunting down permits and they will cognize exactly what to hunt and when to hunt for it in your area

That is because in most places in the world and certainly in the United States government agencies modulate hunt downing down and necessitate hunt downers to utilize for hunt downing down licenses that state when it is court-ordered to hunt down and what kinds of prey the hunt downer is let to shoot down. Despite the fact that some less accountable hunters may desire to hunt sure animals that may be jeopardised or restricted in number, for example, executing so can result in fines, penalties, and other legal actions if the killing of that careful type of prey is forbidden. Even for those kinds of birds and animals that it is satisfactory to kill, a hunting license is still usually slotted. Not having one can subject the hunter to fines and penalties, and wildlife inspectors or agents from the Fish and Game Commission regularly patrol hunting habitats to check up on licenses and if they pick up someone hunting without a license issue citations. So what you hunt and when you hunt it will be brought down in ample part by the wildlife officials in your locale

So authorised wildlife department licenses are the first thing to look into in regard to what type of hunting down is best to do during a careful season. These licenses let you to hunt down for a particular period of time, so by cognizing what is “in season” or court-ordered to hunt down, you will automatically larn what to hunt down during a particular time of the year. If it is deer season, for example, that means two crucial things. First of all it means that it is the time of year when hunting for deer is legal. Second it means that it is the abstract time of year to hunt for deer established on their personal growth, engendering, giving, and maturation cycles

The wildlife officials in your careful region will denominate hunt downing down seasons for sure kinds of prey only after considering what is the best time to hunt down for those animals or birds. So if you hunt during the denominated season you will happen the most abounding hunting and you will also be hunting during the time of year when the prey is largest and can render you with the most food if you plan to eat the game you shoot down. Most hunting of the more democratic type of game happens during the autumn season, so you can enumerate on expending most of your hunting time in the fall when the variety of game and the opportunities to hunt are generally the most abundant

What to Hunt When … Hunting Seasons

January 9th, 2011 Comments off

Hunting is a favorite pastime of many and it is a sport that many people are becoming interested in daily. However, many hunters like to hunt for specific wildlife which have particular hunting seasons. If you are unsure about the hunting season for your particular hunt, then this article should help you to identify specific hunting season dates and locations so that you can plan your next hunting trip around these dates.

These are a few of the general hunting dates for some of your favorite hunts. Deer is a huge hunting season. The deer season lasts from November 1st until December 7th. However, hunting deer with a muzzleloader is from November 1st until November 7th while hunting deer with firearms is open from November 8th until December 7th. If you can get away for a weekend, there is a youth deer hunt from October 25th to October 26th , the last weekend in October. This is a fun pre hunting season challenge.

There is also a youth turkey hunting weekend which kicks off the turkey hunting season. From May 3rd until May 31st, the wild turkey hunting season commences. Later on in the fall, the fall turkey season begins with archery from September 15th to December 15th. If you use a shotgun to hunt turkey with, then the fall season for hunting with shotguns is from October 13th until October 17th. In this case, hunting is only allowed from Monday to Friday and is only available in certain areas of the country. Please check with your hunting range previous to making hunting arrangements.

Black bear hunting starts on September 1st. The closing date to this hunting season is still undetermined because of the method and particular location’s regulation. However, the season usually ends sometime in November, making October the perfect month for black bear hunting.

If you are interested in waterfowl hunting the seasons begins in September and ends sometime in January of the following year. Once again the opening and closing dates for waterfowl hunting differ depending on the zone and the particular waterfowl species. From September 27th until September 28th, there is a youth waterfowl hunting weekend.

Moose hunting season runs from October 18th until October 26th. However, be aware that moose hunting almost always requires a moose hunting permit. For any small game hunting, the season is open from September until March of the following year. As you can see, hunting is available year round. If you have a specific prey then you can find your prey’s particular season. If you are an overall hunter, then you can hunt year round.

Some wise tips for the different hunting seasons include calling ahead to your hunting lodge to make sure that your prey is in season and for how long the season will last from. Then make sure that there is space available at that particular lodge to make a reservation so that you don’t miss out on your prey’s hunting season. You should also verify if a hunting permit is required for the particular hunt you will be going on. This will make your vacation and hunting trip go problem free so that you can relax, enjoy and concentrate on your hunt.

What to Look For When Selecting an Outfitter for Your Antelope Hunt

January 9th, 2011 Comments off

When you do a Google search for Antelope Hunting, you will find many outfitters to choose from.  As you research your possibilities of where to take your next adventure for a trophy antelope, you should consider the following criteria to ensure the best hunting experience.  I have outlined six important factors to keep in mind when trying find the right outfitter.

Location

As you research your trip, the first thing you will discover is that Wyoming is the Pronghorn Antelope capital of the world.  The open plains of Wyoming offer the perfect habitat to support large herds of pronghorn antelope.  As a native of the Laramie Plains, in southeastern Wyoming, I have spent my entire life studying, hunting, guiding, and outfitting here in Wyoming for the pronghorn antelope.

Hunting Area

Wyoming is broken down into many different hunting management areas.  When selecting an area there many factors to consider such as:  draw success, season dates, quality of animals, number of animals and the amount of hunting pressure.

Many areas throughout the state of Wyoming contain vast amounts of private land. These areas tend to have a higher draw success rate due to limited public access which leads to fewer applicants. The low hunting pressure in these areas allows animals to reach maturity and in turn produce trophy pronghorn antelope year after year.  An animal that is harvested without being stressed also yields better tasting meat.

Season dates are very important because you need to choose a timeframe that fits your schedule.  Wyoming offers a special archery season for most areas in addition to a rifle season that generally follows.  Unlike most other big game species, antelope hunting is not always better during the rut.  Some areas are better before the rut, some during and others after the rut is over.  An experienced antelope outfitter will be able to give you his/her advice for what’s best depending on what your individual expectations might be.

When trying to decide on the quality and number of animals in a hunt area, ask the different outfitters what their success rates are and ask to see pictures of all the animals they have harvested over the past few years.  When you compare one to another it won’t take you long to figure out what looks good and what doesn’t.  Use some common sense when making this judgment.  If you find an area with a good draw success rate and an outfitter with a high success rate and proof he has the quality to go with it, you will realize that you don’t have to hunt the biggest herd in the state in order to be successful.

As far as hunting pressure goes, this comes down to a few simple questions.  One, ask how big is the area that you will be hunting.  Second, ask how many hunters will be hunting the same land you will be hunting both before and after your scheduled time.  Last, find out if the land you will be hunting has public access.  When you know the answers to these questions, you will have a good feel for how hard the area has and will be hunted.  A well managed area will have the same quality of hunting the last day of the season as it did the first day if not better.  Antelope are not dumb and they will move from hard hunted areas to areas with less pressure and they will remember year to year where they are safe and where they are not.  Just remember that the quality of a hunt area CAN NOT be determined by the draw success rate, as there are many other underlying factors which come into play.

The Outfitter

Once you have researched and decided on a location and hunt area, the next step is to choose an outfitter that operates in that area.  As a licensed professional outfitter, I am the first to tell you that there are many excellent outfitters throughout Wyoming and all of the other western states.  That being said, you are probably wondering, “How do I know which one is the right one for me?”  At this stage, you (the hunter), need to make some decisions about what you want your hunt to be like.  Do you prefer a fancy lodge?  Do you want to stay in a camp?  Do you prefer to stay in a motel and have access to the other urban activities in the evening and after your hunt if you get done early?  The bottom line is you need to decide where your priorities lay and go from there.  All good outfitters will provide you with good food and adequate sleeping quarters but you need to decide if a camp with a wall tent is what you are looking for, or if you want a 5 star lodge, or all the above.  After making some personal decisions find out what each outfitter offers and narrow down your list accordingly.

The Guide

Another key factor that a lot of hunters forget to ask about is their guide.  Most likely you will spend much more time with your guide than you will with the outfitter.  If the outfitter is willing to put you in contact with some of his guides that will be guiding during your hunt, I highly suggest talking with them.  Ask the guide how long he has been working for the outfitter.  Find out how many seasons he has been guiding in the area where you will be hunting.  The more questions you ask the better you will be able to make a decision.   As with any other business, honesty, trust and the integrity of the people you are doing business with is worth the utmost consideration.  All other factors being equal, what really makes the difference between a good antelope hunt and a great antelope hunt is how well your personality matches up with your outfitter and maybe more importantly your guide.  The best hunting in the world is not enjoyable if you don’t get along with your guide!!

Outfitter Qualifications

Last but not least check with the Wyoming State Board of Outfitters to make sure your outfitter is licensed.  All licensed Wyoming outfitters are required to obtain the proper permits and authorizations in the areas that they hunt.  Most outfitters are willing to help you with the application process to ensure that you apply for the correct area and type of antelope license for the hunt you want to do.  A qualified outfitter should be able to provide you with a list of suggested gear, clothing and equipment.  Most outfitters are more than willing to help with travel and taxidermy arrangements, as well as motel accommodations if needed.

Price

Most guided antelope hunts range from 00-00 depending on what is included.  I do not suggest that a hunter use the price exclusively to evaluate the quality of the outfitter or the hunt but do keep in mind you may get what you pay for.  Generally speaking the more luxurious the accommodations, the more expensive the hunt will be.  Just make sure when price shopping that you are comparing apples to apples and that you understand what is included and what is not.  Don’t forget to ask about license fees, trophy fees, meat processing, meat shipping, hunting stamps, gratuities etc. as all of these expenses will add up.  A hunt that may seem like a good deal may not be quite so good when you really start looking into what is actually included. 

As a hunter, outfitter and sportsman, I understand that the enjoyment of a hunting trip is much more than just the opportunity of harvesting of an animal.  As true sportsmen, we realize that even though we are hiring a professional guide service there are many factors out of human control.  Hunting is hunting and there are no guarantees on harvesting an animal, especially when it is fair chase hunting.  The experience itself, along with the camaraderie of friends, old and new, will be the memories that will stay with you for a lifetime.
