But i see your point. They could have anticipated the 10 most popular questions and put it to bed when listing the requirements. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azdiy Report post Posted May 6, 2021 I certainly hope this doesn't happen to anybody... But, if you get scoped during the test do they send you home? I guess they wouldn't want any of that blood on the meat. jk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eddielasvegas Report post Posted May 6, 2021 Not much more than Azdiy posted, but here's a link. https://www.abc15.com/news/region-northern-az/chance-to-hunt-bison-at-grand-canyon-draws-45k-applicants Even if half do not qualify, it is still a crazy long shot (pun intended). Also, not sure I'd call this a "hunt" like the article does, but maybe they'll be something close to a hunt. Eddie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zslayer Report post Posted May 6, 2021 If one shooter is responsible for shooting multiple bison I wonder if they will supply the ammunition! That could be a problem in this day and age.😂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
