Anyone draw? Results show me unsuccesful on elk, but deer or antelope no results, yet nieghbor and two of my sons show success and unsuccesful on deer and antelope. Oldest son applied for a deer area in our backyard, one and only choice, yet he drew a deer area just out side Rawlins!

two friends of mine and I drew antelope and deer for the northeastern part of the state. no surprise there, but didn't draw our first antelope choice.

I drew elk for one of the limited areas around Cheyenne. Going with a bow late Sept.

A kid that works for me drew a deer tag around Pinedale.

My brother drew his unit 58 Antelope tag!
Will be asking for a few leads as the scouting season is upon us.

58 is a good area. I have worked down there but never applied for it. There have been some good rains and snows across the southern part of the state, so forgage should be good.

We all drew our Antelope tags, but we put in a 100% draw region, so not really a surprise. We'll be heading to Region 7 in October...

i drew what i consider the best late season elk tag in wyoming,and some other folks also as the drawing odds were 1.2%
and the season starts aug 15th and runs thru the end of nov!!!
guy ought to be able to find one to let the
air out of in that time frame.
now all i got to do is tune up my 25-06!!
whoopee!! BIG BULL HUNTIN !!!!!

The wife and I both got antelope (buck and two does each) and I got a general deer tag. We've been quite successful in years past and hope to continue our lucky streak this fall.

I drew a nice tag on the other side of Hwy 80. I looked at the odds and they put me and my buddy in the random draw. They had 6 tags and we drew 2! I’ll be holding out for a B&C goat this year!

Good luck!

We drew antelope tags for buck in Unit 70, our 2nd choice, and for Does in Unit 73 in the Casper area. Looking at the maps it looks like Unit 70 is pretty small in size and according to Eastman's it is a marginal unit. It is our first antelope hunt so we're just looking forward to the whole experience of the hunt. Anybody have any thoughts or opinions on the plusses and minuses of those units. There does look like a reasonable percentage of the areas as walk in. We will be hunting the first week of October. What kind of hunting pressure can we expect?

good luck to all,
Thanks
Paul

Two doe antelope tags, preference point for buck antelope and drew a buck deer tag.

You know, we should really should have a group discussion about if the 25-06 is suitable for elk or not. I wonder if anyone has any opinions on the matter?

I saw a guy lay a 650lb cow elk out from over 100 yards with a single shot .223 with a 55 grain bullet. I think it's probably the best elk round out there.

We drew two doe antelope tags in our favorite area but buck tags were a no-go. They gave out less than 10 buck tags in the area.

We got antelope doe tags, the plan is to go early for nice weather and a little tourism...

I drew an antelope tag in unit 71 and got a deer point and another elk point.

Area 100 Elk 157 area for Whitetail doe, and my usual area for antelope. Got denied on my Area 157 any deer tag though.

Area 27 for our antelope group this year. We always apply for doe tags so the chances are better and you get to take home more meat. No stress about how big the bucks are, etc. It's a nice trip.

Drew for mule deer in Region E
