[QUOTE="dfrahm, post: 2237351, member: 55117"] I'd call your guide today and get his / her recommendations. I've only lived in WY for 67 years but agree with the comments about weather. Bring layers hats and rain gear. If you want to spend a ton of money, but all of the expensive gear listed or that you want or that you can get your wife to agree with because it is a 'guided Wyoming hunt':) You are a hunter so have comfortable boots, they should be fine. The high-end boots need to be worn-in and are really only necessary for side-hilling in loose scree type IMHO. I've hunted everything here and everywhere - you should be fine. Two points to stress. Practice in the wind. If you get a really windy day where you live, get out there and shoot in it. Make notes, keep your targets - you have to shoot in it to understand and Casper has wind like you won't believe (sometimes). Second - long ranges out here, but I don't like 10x binos because they confuse my brain into thinking the animals are a lot closer that they are - 7x is my preference. You probably have some already (see above if you want to justify a ton of spending). And your guide will have all the glass he needs to get you on whatever. Swing by and I'll loan you whatever you need, just bring it back. [/QUOTE]
