Thorbardin Ranch offers guided hunts for antelope, coyote, and prairie dogs on its ranches.We also offer day rates for prairie dogs, coyotes, and waterfowl.
Large game in Wyoming requires drawing for a license.Antelope and mule deer are quite easy; elk can be difficult and may require hunters to build up points from year to year.
Thorbardin Ranch is working on a number of wildlife habitat projects that we expect within a few years we will have some trophy mule deer at our Laramie Ranch for hunters.
About ethical hunters:
In the past few years there has been a disturbing trend among big game hunters who want the racks and the photos but dispose of the carcass.Many of these hunters even say they cannot afford the processing of the meat; which is an outrage when one costs out their gear.Thorbardin Ranch understands that many hunters many not want the meat from their animal; however, in almost every town there is a waiting list of families that could use the meat.The local processing plants and churches always have a list of families that would take game meat.It is important for hunters to step up and do the right thing.Have the animal processed and donate the meat to those that will benefit from it.It is the moral and ethical thing to do.
Antelope Hunting
Antelope is one of the most exhilarating hunts there are.Most antelopes are taken in the 200-400 yard range.Antelopes run together in large groups of 20-30 head in the fall season.Once opening day has passed, antelope become quite adapted at running on the first movement or noise.
Thorbardin Ranch offers a guided hunt package in a unique settings.Our first hunt is on our Laramie Ranch of over 12,000 acres all contiguous on the Laramie Plains.
