As the year comes to a close, and with it the 2019 hunting season. We wanted to say thank you to everyone that has hunted with us this year! We would also like to thank those who’ve already booked for 2020 and beyond we’re already looking forward to it! Without our hunters, we wouldn’t be here to share these incredible memories with you!
We not only value our hunters, but also our awesome crew. We would like to send a very big[...]
Here at SNS we are wrapping up our hunting seasons and starting to hear back from our hunter’s. We enjoy hearing their stories, seeing photos and even videos that our clients have compiled from their trip to Wyoming. Knowing the thrill and overall joy from a hunter’s perspective helps us tell the full hunting story year after year.
Two of our hunter’s, Curt and Ben had been accumulating their preference points[...]
Finding the best gifts for the hunters in your life might seem hard at first — after all, it’s actually pretty tough to choose the perfect gun or bow for a hunter. But, as it turns out, buying accessories, gear, and miscellaneous hunting items for them is pretty easy. Why? Because we are here recommending our 10 favorite hunting musts of the season.
We take pride in recommending gifts for your hunters because we not only rec[...]
October is well underway, and I thought I better check in with y’all. In case you’re new around here, my name is Candace. I’m currently on a hunting series with SNS Outfitter & Guides in Wyoming. This is my first year of these hunts, it’s certainly not my last. I’m looking forward to an adventure-packed journey over the next couple years. You can read about my experience this far by clicking here.

When it comes to hunting, staying properly energized and hydrated are key. After all, most hunts are physically demanding. In order to keep up with your guide, fellow hunters, and the animal you’re pursuing, proper nutrition is equally important as physical fitness. In other words, maintaining peak physical shape correlates to consuming nutrient-dense, whole foods. In an ideal world, a hunter is in good health — both in athleticism an[...]
We are thrilled to announce the results of the first week of fall black bear hunting. With the first week complete in western Wyoming, we’re happy to report that we have five bears on the ground thus far. This is no overnight task, as our guides spend a considerable portion of the summer scouting, baiting, identifying good locations for bear baits, and more.
With that in mind, let’s talk about how our guides prepare for you,[...]
All rifles should be sighted-in before every hunt using the ammunition you plan to use. A gun that was sighted-in prior to your last outing could have been knocked out of alignment by a single jolt. That misalignment could mean the difference between a successful hunt and a disappointing experience. Rifles should be topped with quality scopes at a minimum of 3×9 power with a 40mm objective or larger. Remember, we take longer shots out[...]
“What is proper etiquette for tipping my guide and support staff (I.e. cooks, camp jack, etc) on my hunt?”
This is a question I get asked quite often this time of year and the answer is simple, yet complex.
Let’s start with your guide. It is customary to tip your guide 10% of the hunt price for a single hunt since you will be working with the same guide for the entire hunt (check the price of the hunt y[...]
The countdown has begun to our 2019 fall hunts. We are sure you have spent the last few months preparing physically, mentally, and gathering all the necessary equipment for your western hunt. This is an exciting time and here at SNS want to make sure that packing the wrong equipment won’t stand in the way of that once in a lifetime hunt.
All of those in our outfit would agree that proper footwear is the number one necessity i[...]
The 2019 hunting season is a little over a month away and the outlook for SNS Outfitter and Guides season is looking to be a great one. The snowpack this winter was above average and melted off a little slower than normal in many parts of the state, which meant a late spring. Although we were pushing through snow we had a favorable spring bear season. Not only did the delayed spring lead to a great spring bear season, it also led into a v[...]
