Idaho Antelope Hunting 2023

Available Idaho Pronghorn Antelope Hunts --- Search HF Aventures

Idaho produces a couple Boone and Crockett antelope each year, but don’t expect that. It is more of a fun hunt for 70-75" bucks. Antelope populations continue to hold steady across the state, and after a handful of relatively mild winters, there will be plenty of mature bucks available. If you are looking for an 80" buck, stick with our top units. The southern portion of the state continues to produce the best bucks. There are always a couple of big bucks that come from the area along the Nevada and Oregon borders. This is some remote country that typically gets overlooked by antelope hunters. Most of Idaho’s antelope units have a lot of public land, but there is enough private agricultural land that hunters should be using onXmaps.

Keep in mind that many of these areas have become very popular and there can be plenty of competition for waterholes. Idaho antelope country is typically broken, which can allow for some good spot and stalk hunting adventures.
