I am only 18 years old and have not drawn antelope 2 times since I was12. That is with three choices and four to five people in my part application! This is the second year I did not draw so I went out and bought an additional doe for Wyoming area 32. The game and fish announced last year as well as this year that area 32 is one of the nest in the state. We put in because of that news last year and drew. Let me tell you, that is the worst area in the state! I am know biologist but when we had to hunt a goat for a week when you can drive up the highway 1 miles and see a herd of 100, that is pretty bad. Anyway, I was doped into buying a doe for the area this year because I thought, were in Wyoming can you not find a doe antelope? Well, in three days of hunting the entire area (included all of the Access Yes crap) I am happy to report that I saw a total of 8 antelope in the best area of the state. I know for a fact that the game and fish are running this area for profit and not for the animals. They should close it entirely, but they need the money. Crap! For the price of a license, gas, bullets and processing (even if we do it ourselves) antelope hunting is becoming non economical for an 18 year old husband and father who hunts for food, not just for sport. I for one and my father for another will not be wasting our time and money on antelope to support a game and fish that manages for money, not for quality of the hunt.
