Now you're talkin!!!!
Personally I absolutely love Cheyenne. I wish I had the opportunity to live there. Land is cheap and so are the houses. There is not alot of Public land right next to Cheyenne but there is plenty within an hours drive.
As for fishing somewhat close to Cheyenne, there is Glendo and Greyrocks Reservoirs to the North. Wheatland Res. over by Laramie. Seminoe and Pathfinder Reservoirs a couple of hours away. Good waters for bass, panfish, trout, walleye, and sauger. Then of course there is the Gorge about three hours away. For rivers there is the Laramie, Platte and Medicine Bow. All three are Blue Ribbon trout rivers.
Elk and Mule Deer hunting is really good in the Snowy Range which is part of the Medicine Bow National Forest. There are also plentiful amounts of White Tails and Antelope in that part of the state but most are on private land. Being a Wyoming resident would allow you the opportunity to hunt nice deer and elk every year without having to draw.
Wyoming is a "Shall" issue state for CCW permits. With you having military service is all you would have to do is go to a Sheriff's office complete the background aplication, get finger prints, pay $79, and you will get it in a few weeks.
Wyoming also does not have any Income Tax, and our state is not broke like the rest of the country.
