is there a early elk rifle season for youth? I saw a picture of one that was killed by a 12 year old boy and I was surprised because I did not think the he bow hunted. High fence maybe?
I'm not a youth, but I shot my bull in Wyoming with a rifle last week.
Some of the backcountry units start allowing rifle hunting as early as September 15th. Several more units start on the 20th, some more on the 26th, then a whole bunch start tomorrow.
I think with a general tag in Wyoming you could hunt on opening day about 7 or 8 times if you switched units for every one.
