WY unit 45

[Cheesehead]

Hi all...
Drew unit 45 for antelope. New species for me. Coming in from WI. If anyone has input you’d be willing to share, appreciate if you’d pm me. Thanks all!

Don’t shoot the first buck you see..good luck and have fun

What baz77 said.

It’ll be hard not to shoot that first buck as he’s standing at 100 yards not paying much attention to you.

XBar Ranch HMA if you can get a permit.
Look into lodging in Centennial for a view and a nice place near the NF and your hunting area.

@wytex My son and I are also hunting this area for his senior trip. Would like to know any additional info you have. We are planning to apply for the x bar on the 8th. Is it hard to draw that HMA? We're going in October after the crowds hoping that'll help. There's a walk in area too ive been eyeing.

I hunted that unit a few years back on the Strouss Hill (sp?) HMA. That year I stayed in Laramie, but now prefer to camp on NF a bit west of the unit. Easy enough drive.

My daughter and I drew tags in 45 as well. Similar to @dwatling, I am taking my daughter for a high school senior hunting trip. Looking at HMAs. Which is better, X Bar or Strouss Hills?

Looks nice and heavy. Good job

Best thing about antelope hunting is you get to enjoy your hunt all over again every time you eat the tablefare!
Congrats on a nice looking buck.

I hate that some units are open, and I have to impatiently wait Congrats on a filled tag

Nice first loper, congrats.

Awesome! My daughter and I are heading that way in a couple weeks to hunt 45. We have an Xbar access permit. Did you hunt the Xbar?

JWH look around Sodergreen lake area. Some terrain there for stalking. Good fishing in the lake too.
