Looking for any help in acquiring private land for deer/antelope hunting in or around Sheidan Wyoming. We've (6 of us) been hunting BLM land for a while now...and are seeking something to call our own. Got our own tent and accommodations...were extremely self sufficient.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

Can't help you with land, but years ago I hunted a ranch just east of Sheridan for mules and antelope. What a great time I had and saw lots of animals. Ended up taking a 160" mulie and a 12" antelope. Beautiful country.
Good luck!

Good luck on that, as most of the private ranches up in that entire area are either spoken for by leases that outfitters have or are only hunted by the owners and relatives. My best hunting buddy lives in Sheridan and we go all the way to the other side of the mountain for our deer, elk, and antelope hunting every year.

I've tried the game & fish, county land assessor...here we are a couple days from application deadline! Lol. Only reason I picked Sheridan is because my dad used to dad me there, now the the shoe is on the other foot so to speak...we'll end up on BLM around there somewhere. That's still better than mowing the lawn! Good luck all!!

You have a while yet. May 31st, not March 31st.

G&F did change the application dates for NRs to match the residents for deer and antelope to May 31 starting this year. This year it falls on a Sunday, so actually the deadline is midnight mountain time on Monday, June 1. I'll apply a week or two before that date to avoid the last minute rush. June 1 is also the last day you can modify/withdraw your application this year.
