Hello,
Some of my extended family has decided to take a hunting trip to Wyoming. I believe there will be 10 of us going and we all drew the same unit. Most of us never having antelope hunted before.
Logistically, what is the optimum amount of people that could be hunting together? As we are traveling from different locations and meeting there, possibly car pooling, is it beneficial to have a minimum of 5 vehicles or would 3-4 be sufficient? Or would 6-7 make more sense for hunting?
Rifle hunting, most of us are proficient with rifles, and have many rounds through the rifles. Other family members are shotgun only hunters, little to no experience behind a rifle. We are planning several days to practice in the future to familiarize everyone, and practice from several positions, but what distance should we shoot for? Is 300 yards far enough?
In the event that we are successful and have some vacation left, I've noticed several prairie dog marks on OnX. Not that we need everyone of those to be a town, but would we be in the right area if we wanted to go shoot some?
Thanks for any advice/help.
