kudu56Depends on what you are looking for. A trophy or just a nice buck. There are always leftover tags in Wyoming, they are in areas with lots of private property. Some land owners charge a few bucks to access, some guide, and some don't allow any hunting.
Also Ray Atkinson has some opeings listed on this forum.

WyoJoeFrom what everyone says Ray is a square shooter. Here is a link to his web site.

MrHawgYou might also apply in good public land areas, which will be tough to draw, but if you do you can save a bunch of money by not hiring an outfitter. If you have a place to hunt, you do not need an outfitter. The only reason people use outfitters for antelope is because the outfitters lock up all the land.

True Grit Trophy OutfittersI offer a really good antelope hunt in northeast New Mexico. The bucks average 14-15" with several 16"+ bucks taken each year. I think late August is the best time of year, so I would think about booking for next year. Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

chazgreengents/ thanks for the advice; i have never hunted speedgoats, so i welcome all leads. i sent an email to both atkinson and true grit. i will say i had a less than satisfactory alaskan brownhunt in 1995 with one guide atkinson used. ouch.....expensive hunt to have less than great guide. lesson learned..........
