Compared to other Western states, Idaho issues a high number of antelope tags making it a great destination for antelope opportunity. Tags are drawn exclusively through the controlled hunt drawing. Seasons of all weapon types are available for a chance to harvest a buck antelope with some seasons offering great rut activity. High numbers of antelope will make for an enjoyable hunt.
