Antelope hunting

I've hunted north central off and on for over 30 years. This area is almost impossible for a non resident to draw a buck tag. However the doe fawn tags are easy to get, along with the animals. We mostly hunted mulies, but would put in for doe pronghorn as an additional tag. The area that they live in, and what they have to eat will make a big difference on how they taste to you.
 
When I lived in Wyoming I spent many good hunting days in area 59-112. Many, many goats and very few hunters. Big trophy animals?...Saw a few but, most were, (if I remember correctly) 11"-13". We hunted one "monster" for several days but, couldn't get within our shooting ranges. I didn't bother to check the regs'. but, I seem to remember my brother-in-law telling me that the area is now 2 separate areas. When it was combined it was a huge area. The area is just directly South of Rock Springs. First is 59 and then 112. Not very much water. Some stock ponds and that's about it. Would be dry camping for sure. Used to be mostly all BLM, wide open, no fences. Never did it but, we, on many occasions found many small, hidden dry creek beds perfect, (for camping) for getting out of sight and the wind. Matter of fact, got my first bow kill goat in that area. To me this area always seemed, "desolate" so go prepared.


Yes that area is now two areas. A north and a south. Still a ton of goats out there.
