I know this isnt about MSG but to me Bison seems to be included with then since it is a once in a lifetime hunt. If it should be in a different area I will gladly move this thread to the correct location.
This past Tuesday the state of Wyoming released their draw results for Moose, Sheep, Mountain Goat and Bison. I was at work and had the window open on a screen. I entered my info at 10:00am and then went back to doing what I was doing as I expected it to take a while to refresh. I fully expected bison sheep and moose to all say unsuccessful. I had even joked with a guy at work about being excited to see how much he was getting back from Wyoming. I noticed that one of the results wasnt like the others, I then looked over and saw I drew a Bull Bison tag in Wyoming, on my first year ever applying. It still has not set that I drew the tag.
This is a special event because of the rarity if it but also because of the last year to year and a half I've had. In November 2018 I moved from New Jersey to Cheyenne Wyoming. I had visited and hunted many years and finally landed a job although it was in Greeley Colorado and I was commuting 75 miles each way. My hear was always in wyoming. In short order in came to not like my job at all for various reasons I will not get into. Last June a group of us went on a work trip 6 hours away and I was called back and fired for violating a company policy I didnt realize I was violating. I can remeber the date June 20th, Wyoming draw results for antelope and deer as I had not gained residency. I found out that I also wouldnt get the chance to hunt with my dad. He didnt draw the antelope tage I thought he would draw. I found out how great my support system is and in less than two months I landed a job that I still love near Gillette, Wyoming. I did fill my two doe antelope tags last year plus a leftover doe deer tag but drawing this bison tag is really the way to end a tough 12 months.
Sorry for the novel indonintend to do a write up of the hunt when done.
