Our antelope and deer hunting season begins October 1st and ends October 14th.
Hunts do not include license fees. License fees are $286 for antelope and $326 for deer. A youth license is also available for youngsters between the ages of 12 and 19 at the time of the hunt for $124. License fees will be returned if you are unsuccessful in the drawing. A special drawing for licenses is also available for an added $240, in which your chances of drawing a license may be improved. In some cases we may recommend using the special drawing. A conservation stamp ($12.50) is also required and may be purchased from us when you arrive for your hunt.
Town hunts do not include the price of food, other than our extensive lunches, or lodging. We will get a discount for you at The Ramkota-Best Western Inn. Rates for 2007 were $65/room plus tax, with up to 4 persons per room. We can suggest spots to camp on your own, but cannot provide them on our hunting lands.
Hunters booking alone (or with an odd number of hunters) will be paired with another hunter, if available, and both will pay the 2-hunter-per-guide rate. If another single hunter is unavailable, you will be charged the one-on-one fee of $125/day for the listed days of the hunt. You may also request one-on-one guide service at the same rate.
When we receive your deposit, you will be sent a receipt and a Wyoming hunting application. Complete the application and return to us with a check or money order made out to: State of Wyoming, Game & Fish Department, for $286 for antelope, or $326 for deer. If we decide to use the Special Drawing, we will contact you near the application deadline and request the extra $240. When we receive your application, we will fill in the proper areas and deliver it to the Game & Fish Department in Cheyenne before the application deadline of March 15th. The drawing will be held in July, and we will be in touch with you about any necessary steps to be taken at that time.
Extra costs to expect on your hunt may include meals, rifle sighting ($4), taxidermy (around $450 per head plus shipping and crating), meat processing and packing (around $85 for each animal), extra baggage costs for your game on airplanes (about $50 per animal), and tips for your guide, if you are satisfied with the service. If game meat is to be donated to a local family or charity, you are expected to pay all processing costs.
Hunts are generally over when you have bagged the game you have booked for, and often are shorter than the days allowed for the hunt.
