I shouldn't have opened this forum...

For most of my adult life I have worked in a job to where I could not anticipate taking any vacation during the spring due to planting season. I could turkey hunt on days when we were not busy, but those were unpredictable when they would be and how much time I would actually get.

I now have a job where I can take PTO at any time during the year, and it occurred to me that spring bear season is upon us. I don't know if I am going to regret prioritizing bear over turkey, but how terrible could spending time in the mountains actually be? Anyways, it appears a trip to Wyoming is in order for me

Just out of curiosity, when are you thinking of bear hunting?
Spring in Texas is different time of year than spring in Wyoming. Maybe you could do both???
Win win.

Looks like there is some overlap between bear and spring turkey seasons in certain Wyoming hunt areas.
