Pronghorn Antelope · State-by-state
Pronghorn Antelope hunting regulations.
Pronghorn are the fastest land mammal in North America, capable of sustained speeds over 50 mph. They're not antelope — they're the only surviving member of an ancient family unique to this continent, distantly related to giraffes. Mature bucks weigh 100-130 pounds and carry pronged horns made of keratin (which they shed annually unlike true antlers). Range covers the open plains and sage country of the Western US, with strongholds in Wyoming, Montana, New Mexico, South Dakota, and Colorado.
Pronghorn hunting is mostly draw-based with strong odds in many units, especially for residents. Wyoming alone issues over 50,000 tags annually and has the largest population on the continent. The rut runs early September into early October. Spot-and-stalk in open country with quality optics is the dominant technique; calling with rattling and challenge sequences works in archery range during the rut.
