CHEYENNE, Wyo.—The Wyoming team won the 65th annual One Shot Antelope Hunt in Lander over the weekend, but both Wyoming Gov. Dave Freudenthal and Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter failed to kill theirs with the required single shot.
None of the eight teams in this year’s hunt saw all three team members kill an antelope with a single shot each.
Freudenthal led the Wyoming team, which also included former state game department director Terry Cleveland and former Fremont County Sheriff Tim McKinney.
Wyoming won because Cleveland and McKinney successfully completed their single-shot hunts faster than the other teams that also killed two antelope.
Carl Asbell, president of the One Shot Hunt Club in Lander, says it’s unusual that none of the participating teams had three single-shot kills.
