One of our longtime hunting guides here at SNS Outfitter & Guides, Justin Leinonen, recently had the opportunity to hunt bighorn sheep in Wyoming and was able to take an excellent ram on September 1st.
It took Justin close to 20 years to draw this coveted Wyoming bighorn tag. But it was certainly worth the wait as he was able to take this im[...]
We are excited to have officially kicked off our 2015 Wyoming hunting season! It began with our archery antelope hunters this week. The weather has been pretty warm to start the season, but we’re seeing good numbers of antelope bucks and the herds appear to be in excellent shape thanks to record spring precipitation.
As our [...]
Having the right gear can make or break your Wyoming hunt, and this is especially true of your boots. Boots could possibly be your most important investment after your firearm or bow. You will wear them every day in the field, and they must perform well. If you are cold, wet, or get blisters on your feet, it’s not going to be a fun experience. You may not be able to spend the necessary time in the field, and you may not be able to hike to th[...]
From now through September 30th, Wyoming’s preference point application period for nonresident hunters is now open. If you are thinking about hunting in Wyoming in 2016, this is a very important reminder! This is your chance to pick up a Wyoming Preference Point before next year’s big game drawings.
Here at SNS Outfitter & Guides, licenses for many of our hunts can be drawn with[...]
Clients often ask what we do during the summer months here at SNS Outfitter & Guides in Wyoming. As you can imagine, it’s a busy time of year for us. Hunting seasons are only a couple of months away and there’s a lot to do before our fall guests begin arriving.
With camps in several parts of the state, we spend a lot of ti[...]
We now have four new openings available for fall bear hunts in the Greys River region of Wyoming! These openings are for September 15-19 and are now available on a first-come, first-serv[...]
When chatting with first-time clients and hunters from across the country, we’re often asked what can be expected on a hunt with SNS. What is a typical day like on a Wyoming hunt with us?
Here’s a short photo tour, showing a day in the life at a typical SNS hunting camp.
1. Up Before Dawn
At all of our camps across Wyoming, whether you’re hunting elk in the mountains or antelope further east, we’re always up well b[...]
In Wyoming and across the mountain west, the month of May brought record levels of precipitation in many areas. At our Box Y Lodge along the scenic Greys River, dark and drizzly days seemed to dominate the entire month.
The unusual weather led to tough spring bear hunting conditions. According to Wyoming Game and Fish early estimates, bear harvest statewide is down as much as 80 percent. Our spring bear hunters and guides worked hard, a[...]
This year’s deadline to submit Wyoming deer hunting applications and antelope applications is May 31. If you are interested in a 2015 tag, it’s now or next year!
We want to bring attention to our Greys River trophy mule deer hunts, where we still have a couple of openings. If you have preference points for deer in Wyoming, this is the ultimate hunt. The Greys River region produces more record book bucks than anywhere else in the sta[...]
We’ve posted a few articles over the past several months on the great work being done by the Wyoming Hunter Defense Fund (WHDF). This organization’s mission is to protect our hunting opportunities in Wyoming. Bad legislation has threatened those opportunities recently, but thanks to the WHDF and its partners, these serious attacks were thwarted.
These attacks included Wyomin[...]
