Yep!
Just across the southern border with Colorado go just outside of Baggs, Wyo. North northwest I believe and there is a vast amount of BLM that used to be loaded with antelope! My two boys andI were there a few years ago and hunt was over the first day!!

You've missed the Wyoming draw.  You'll need to check out the units that have leftovers and match them with units that have good sucess rates and good BLM ground.  All the info is avaible on their website.

You might find that it's going to be hard since you missed the draw.  Instead consider paying a trespass fee.  They aren't much and it can get you on private ground in a unit that still has leftover tags available.  Usually the county seat chamber of commerce has a list of landowners that do this.

I've had good sucess talking to the land owners.  If they don't have what you're wanting, ask if they know any of their neighbors that might.  They are usually very helpful.

Thanks for the info. I thought you could buy antelope doe tags over the counter.

Depending on the unit you can buy them leftover forever... as in there is a limited number, but that limited number is so high it will never be reached... In some units you can, or used to be able to, buy up to 4 doe tags, and they are quite cheap.  If you're not looking for a buck, and you want a unit with good numbers and public access, send me a PM and I'll give you some info...
