So what's in store for your hunting trip with Cowboy Country Outftters?
TRANSPORTATION LOGISTICS
Plan on arriving mid-morning or even on the day before the
start date for your hunting trip. This is particularly important for camp hunts as it allows us to get you
to our camp in time for your opening morning. Also it gives you time to shoot and make sure everything is ready for your
first day of hunting and your not wasting your hunt time.
WYOMING
HUNTS
There is several ways to get to Cowboy Country whether you fly or drive into Casper, WY depending on
the hunt you booked.
It is recommended if you arrive in Casper earlier than the day before your hunt start date,
you will use the motel shuttle bus for transportation for the hotel you are staying at. After your hunt you can use this
same shuttle to return to the Casper airport. Maps are available if you would like to drive directly to our hunting camp.
WEATHER
The weather can and will have a profound impact
on your hunting experience. Please be aware that we have no control over it! No extra days will be awarded or refunds given
due to lost hunting time or season closures caused by Acts of GOD. Any additional costs for motels, meals etc. caused by adverse
weather conditions are not the responsibility of Cowboy Country Outfitters.
HUNTER SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
No person born on or after January 1, 1966 (Wyoming) may take any wildlife
by the use of firearms, unless that person possesses and can exhibit a certificate of competency and safety in the use and
handling of firearms. Wyoming grants reciprocity to other states, countries and provinces providing recognized hunter safety
certificates. Exhibit of certificates is not required to apply for or obtain a license. Hunter education certificates must
be carried into the field and the minimum age to hunt in Wyoming is 12.
TAXIDERMY - TROPHY CARE - MEAT PROCESSING
When your animal is harvested, your guide will take care
of the field dressing. Taxidermy work and meat processing are available locally. The cost of taxidermy and meat processing
is your responsibility. If you can't take the meat home, it can be donated to a local food bank. Note that the cost is
still your responsibility. Meat cutting charges run $80 and up depending on customer preference plus the cost of dry ice and
shipping boxes. Taxidermy work is approximately $500 and up for a shoulder mount plus crating and shipping. European mounts
are $200+.
Heads left to be caped, boxed and shipped to you by local taxidermists are your responsibility. If
you want to take your head home to a local taxidermist, this can also be arranged. Heads taken home by commercial airlines
require special care. Please call your airline in advance to acquaint yourself with current airline requirements. In addition,
be sure to familiarize yourself to state laws regarding transporting meat and heads with regard to regulations around chronic
wasting disease.
