Great year for goats

[laxwyo]

I was out in unit 57 wyo putting up some trail cams for deer and I'll tell you it will be a great year for antelope. There are bucks that are already special

I'll second that, I was out last weekend and saw some goats with impressive mass and cutters. Good grass on the plains as well so things are looking good! Saw some deer that are showing good mass as well.

I love reading that. Drew my first Wyoming Antelope tag this year and can't wait to get up there in September.

I hope this means the antelope will have more meat on them this year since all I have is two doe tags.

Probably, but just because you got doe tags didn't mean you can't bring some horns home. I shot a doe last year with a couple inch horns and seen another with 6"ish horns.

Great idea! Sounds like a plan to me. I'll be focusing on trophy does this year. Guess that means I need to pack the spotting scope!

Sadly, I've been skunked on a 45% draw two years in a row

Looks like the weather is turning dry and hot down here in the SE, hopefully it doesn't last long. There is a lot of grass and water, but it won't last long after 10 days on the 80's. Hoping for a few mild thunderstorms.

I drew a 55 tag this year so maybe one of those special 57 bucks will cross the street. You couldn't write a better script for the weather this year, a mild winter followed by a very wet spring. Last year's weather was great but this year has been perfect. There will be some good animals taken this year all across the state.

I was thinking the same thing. I've seen a few nice bucks already around Laramie, but the hot/dry forecast for at least the next 2 weeks makes me nervous

But, all it takes is one really big storm every couple of weeks though...

I couldn't believe the forage in 57. Drove thru there last week and it looked amazing. Wish I would have drawn.

15 day forecast is hot and dry. Hello fire season

I finally drew my first choice antelope type 1 tag, I've been applying for the area for 5 years now, and it's a 50% draw area. I was really unlucky for 4 years!

Great news to here about the Antelope ! I will using my second choice tag in Unit 8.

I'm pumped to hear this report! I won't be in 57 but close. Can't wait for September.

Quick question for the more experienced antelope hunters. How much more will a billy grow from now until September?

Bucks will not grow much from now until September. Antelope horns start growning in early winter and grow very fast.

I think they will still put on plenty from now until sept but the majority looks to be done. You should be able to tell whoppers a apart
