Thanks TopGun. I have been researching it. Initially I was just looking at buck tags. Then I switched to just leftover tags. I never considered the both of them. So I'll look at that now. I appreciate you trying to clarify. R -

Aye Yai Yai! So are the doe drawings separate / different then the buck drawing? (I know leftovers are a separate issue) Are the odds the same? Do you just specify buck or doe when you apply? Who would apply for a doe tag then if the odd were the same? -

Thanks Topgun! I didn't realize they had buck leftovers. Are those typically in hard to access units? Doing a lot of satellite scouting but the roads thru private land have me nervous. I need to call the wardens and biologist to get some advice on that with particular units. -

Do you still get 2 doe if you don't draw? If so that would be the ticket for me because I don't plan on drawing a decent unit this year, just hunting does. That is why I was going to do left overs. -

That sounds good. Did you go solo last year? Left over tags? Rob

Ohioan looking for WY Pronghorn partner
Ha ha! Thanks guys. A big benefit of partnering on this trip would be to share the drive and cut that time. It's looking like a 24 hour trip, and I'm not the road warrior I was, so I'm looking at 2 days instead of 1 to get there. I'll just have to extend the trip to 9 days to get a good 4... -

Hi, I'm going to do a WY pronghorn hunt with leftover tags this year. I'll be leaving from eastern Ohio. Probably 7-9 days total, including travel. I'm going to apply for draw but not expecting to. I'd rather accumulate the points and have a sure plan in place, rather then hope to draw on a... -

Do they let us know what units will have left over tags right after draw results? I'll be coming a long way so just want to make sure I'll be able to get a left over tag, as this is my first year there. -

PAGOAT, if you don't mind, where did you find info that it was 100% special tags? I found the 2014 Harvest report for that area off the map link but it doesn't list special tags - just type 1 or type 6. -

Well it looks like I'll be heading to Wyoming then. Navigating the draw results, maps, and reports now. Wow, your game departments are in a whole other field then ours. We don't have anything like this. There is one annual report with the total numbers killed, broken down into counties and... -

I can't do the special draw at this time. I don't mind walking quite a way, especially if it means not rubbing shoulders with other hunters. Some of my best hunts were grueling. I'm definitely open to doe tags. Meat is meat to me. But I haven't had pronghorn. Is there a big difference btw... -

We don't have that problem here in the East, it's all private! No seriously, most of it is. I've been learning alot from Randy's podcast about this issue. Hunting a piece of public land that isn't a pumpkin patch of orange excites me! -

Thanks for the tip. The draw odds for unit 1 and 2 look good. Some of The public land looks pock marked there though so a good gps like you said is in order. Do you buy over the counter tags when you go? I think I'm good with the equipment you listed and may throw in a spotting scope. I... -

I guess eating liver and heart prevent me from finding my game gamey. I usually enjoy long walks and don't have dogs. -

Excellent info and ideas. Thanks guys. Sounds like a few more hours drive is the way to go. The chances for a good draw for a non res in a decent area in SD for pronghorn don't look great. -

Hey guys, Great forum you have here. I didn't see in introduction thread so I'll do it here. I started listening to Randy's podcast after hearing an interview of him on another podcast. Now I'm hooked. Learning a lot. I was going to do an Elk hunt as a graduation present (grad school) but I...
