If they tell me I can’t have someone with me he’s just gonna go hunt another part of the WMA

My dad was also selected as hunter so It'll be nice to be on the same hunt with him. I'm trying to find more info about the hunt, specifically type of firearm allowed. I've seen where a couple people have said it buckshot only, but I havent been able to find any official statement about it.

The youth hunts that I have taken part in has been 1 shotgun per group, and buckshot only. I think it's that way for the adult hunt too, but not 100% certain. Maybe give the Geneva Bio a call for clarification. You gonna pull them pistols, or whistle Dixie?

Thanks, this is basically the only info I can find on it also. just seems to be lacking a ot of crucial info, like where to meet, what kind of weapons/ shot size is allowed, etc. I'll try sending them an email and see if I can get any additional info.

I believe they will send an email spelling out the essentials well prior to the hunt. You gonna pull them pistols, or whistle Dixie?

What are you shooting? I'm very confident to 60. I have spent a lot of time and $ figuring it out because that's what I hunt with 90% of the time.
