I know it is a stretch, but does anyone have a rancher who does trespass fee hunts in WY? My buddy and I are looking to head west this fall. If you have a connection, feel free to message me. Thanks

I don't know if they still do it, but some of the Chamber of Commerce's from different cities in Wyoming used to have a list of names of ranches that allowed hunting. Some charged a flat "trespass fee" or some charged by the license. Others charged a fee for each animal taken. Check out bigger cities near areas you might be interested in hunting around. Douglass, Wright, Sheridan etc.....

Good luck!

Lots of BLM land to hunt on, without the need to pay a fee. Call the BLM office, purchase a few maps in areas you are looking to hunt, they used to be $8.00 each.

The world has changed.

You aren't hunting wy antelope on big chunks of public without 5 to 7 preference points.


By the time you get to 5-7 points, the point creep will make it 7 to 9 points.

Totally agree with Marty. With zero points you don't have any chance of drawing a tag in a unit with a reasonable amount of public land. At this point in the year It's unlikely you'd be able to locate a rancher that allows trespass that isn't already committed. I think if you want to hunt this year you'll need to locate an outfitter in the eastern part of Wyoming that still has opening or you could potentially find an outfitter in New Mexico.

Good Luck!

Yep..Antelope hunting in New Mexico..LOL...Antelope landowner tags are $3.000.00 all day long..However those tags are already bought by outfitters so your hunt before Non-Resident tag is going to be $4.000.00 and up...


I can catch them here...I can catch them ANYWHERE

Yep...On the brighter side Non-Resident antelope licenses is only $283.00...The thing to do is put in before next Wednesday for a state tag...However if you draw it can get a little dicey...You can only hunt on state or blm land..Many of these ranches have their deeded land incorporated with state and federal...So..You pretty much have to have ONX apps to keep you straight..Especially dealing with the locked gates that are supposed to be open...Usually a hunt is over in two days though with 100 percent opportunity..Good Luck

Wyoming is also looking at cutting the number of tags issued to non residents deal breaker is the outfitters and landowners want a share for there use.

Come on to Montana. You can get a tag pretty easily, and lots of BLM ground to hunt. An added plus will be you won't have to hang out with all those Coloradan's hunting wyoming!

Been to Montana on a antelope hunt. DIY hunt. Good time, saw many different species and got a decent goat. The problem is the ranches where we hunted have since sold all their rights to the outfitters. No hunting that area anymore.

Someone on here gave me a recomendation a while back and a friend and me applied , both drew a buck tag and I drew a doe tag as well, we seen dozens of Antelope and filled all tags first day. Seemed no one liked out of state hunters, you MUST have GPS & Onx, BLM land and BLM maps no problem.

Wyoming has ranchers that participate in "Walk In Areas" on private land. Look through the Wyoming F&G website or call the main office or any regional office for information.

They have a complete list of all the ranches or private land owners that and what is required to access any of those properties FREE.

Looks like the incorporation of most private land in the West is about complete. Its like everything else in this country, big money, no matter how it was made, talks and everyone else walks. I'll stick with what I know here.

I just buy $40. Preference points until I want to go....I have 10 for Wyoming Antelope
But this year with Gas prices now the way they are ...I'll probably own 11 or 12 points before I go again

$40 a year doesn't kill a guy.

Sounds like antelope shooting has gone more towards hunting a spot to shoot one. I was less than impressed in 2004 and 2005 when I went antelope "hunting" in Wyoming. We put in for 3 units we had scouted and hunted 2 diff units those years. Both had adequate amounts of state owned land and game and fish land units. It really is just a matter of being able to shoot a rifle over 200 yards. We could sit still on the ground and watch groups of antelope about the entire time. I thought the meat was terrible. Good experience but I have no desire to do it again. I guess people that don't shoot an antelope must not leave the house and just buy a tag - I sure hope they are not that poor of a shot they can't hit one.

No way, I would spend 40 dollars a year for 11-12 times - I'd rather go buy a beef calf and finish it out.
