Women in Hunting

Our Women in Hunting® community is an exciting and vibrant component of our program where women who embrace wildlife conservation and the critical role hunters play in it engage with each other. Join us to build relationships, access opportunities and resources, develop strength and knowledge, and celebrate and support one another.

Every fall we invite all women of any age to join the women in hunting community by uploading your photos and a short story of yourself doing what you love in the outdoors. Submissions open October 15, 2026 - January 15, 2027.

The Women in Hunting community is a subset of the Wild Sheep Foundation’s Women Hunt program. We celebrate with 1,000+ of our Sheep Show friends annually at the Beer & Bubbly Reception, sponsored by the New Mexico Wild Sheep Foundation.

To enjoy more of our community’s submissions, join the rest of our followers on Instagram and Facebook and check out the stories every #womenhuntwednesday.
