Hi,

We're going to hunt Unit 30 (if I recall correctly) , which is near Casper during mid October for Pronghorns. Good luck on your trip. Hope to see a report. Will report on ours when we get back. We both have buck and doe tags. Looking forward to a nice trip myself. Can't wait.

-Ray

I'm pretty stoked. Thinking about buying a doe tag as well. Wish I could find some people to apply with that wouldn't bail on me. I'd really rather do a DIY with friends but this really will be fun too. The aspect of letting somebody else work there ass off for me is intriguing.

all I can say is don't shoot the first one you see, you'll see plenty.  Pick out a decent buck and have fun!

 Well now that you've done your homework I'll start putting in with you. But not until 2011, I'm going Elk hunting in Idaho next year.

Back in 03' we hunted Deer and Antelope in Buffalo Wy. We killed 5 antelope by 10am and 3 mule deer bucks by days end. All this was DIY. You should not have any problem tagging out. Just remember that Antelope will look further away than they really are, trust your rangefinder if you are using one. People who are not used to looking at speedgoats tend to think they are farther away than they really are. Have fun and get some doe tags if they are availiable, do the landowner a favor and fill your freezer.

Sounds like a blast!  good luck
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I'd really rather do a DIY with friends but this really will be fun too.

 A DIY in that area will not be a problem, even though there is a great deal of private land.  There really are thousands of goats in that area and most of the land owners are all too happy to have some of them removed. The lopes eat the same grasses as the cattle except they chew it off much closer to the dirt, too close for the cattle to be able to eat it and resulting in longer growing recovery time. For this reason a lot of land owners will give you access for lope hunting, even if they are not on block management lists.

 Its a pretty long drive just for lopes, if I were going I would try for Montana lope tags as well, doe tags can be purchased over the counter for $50.00/ea. and its "on the way". There is a nice meat locker just off the highway in Buffalo so you wont have to worry about spoiling, the owner is pretty cool and doesn't charge an arm and a leg. Good luck and like EastWa said, don't shoot the first one you see.

The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Curious to what you stated about Montana tag for does, hmmmm...  Were probably running 1-90 then cutting down through middle of Wyoming to Casper, might be a good ideal if the total license doesn't cost too much to grab a tag...  I guess I can check on Montana's web site later on.

Give them a call, I know with a combo license I can purchase doe tags over the counter until they sell the quota, I still have to call them and buy mine :bash:

Good luck, I drew an antelope tag in unit 27.  I'm heading over on the first of Oct. and am stoked, I've never antelope hunted before.
