According to the news, more than 45,000 people from all over the US applied. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

you probably have 50% that wont be able to pass the shooting test, and another 20-30% that wont pass background test ;)

I wonder if they will allow bipods or shooting sticks or anything else for the shooting test.

Cant see why they wouldnt.  

But i see your point.  They could have anticipated the 10 most popular questions and put it to bed when listing the requirements.

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

Not much more than Azdiy posted, but here's a link.

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.

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.😂

That number doesn't surprise me in the least.  This has been all over the internet and was super easy to apply for online.....
