It depends on the hunt area. There are three (3) choices on the application, but you need only one choice to validate the application. If more applicants list an area as their first choice than there are licenses available, anyone listing that area as a second or later choice have no chance. In some areas, particularly private land antelope areas in eastern Wyoming, there are typically far fewer first choice applicants than the license quota. This makes those areas possible to draw on later choices. On the other hand, public land antelope areas are usually oversubscribed on the first choice. This makes it difficult to draw those areas on the first choice and impossible to draw on later choices. Hunters should be aware that private land areas require the permission of the landowner before going hunting. The G&F advises hunters to obtain permission before listing a private land area on any choice on their application.
