LAST EDITED ON Mar-24-18 AT 02:39PM (MST)[p]I think 67 has fallen victim to the same thing a lot of top units fall victim too. Previously it was not in the top 5 or maybe even 10 units when discussing trophy antelope in Wyoming. The hyped units were all the red desert units. Some good bucks get killed, forum chatter starts popping up regarding 67, the mags start pimping it, no tag cuts come, but the serious trophy hunters do come. They wack the top off of the unit every year for over 5 years now and you get what you see currently. It will take much longer for the decline in quality to reverse the hype train than it did to get the hype train moving full speed ahead.
For a similar story you need to look no further than a unit just east of Casper that the mags pimped to no end after a couple good years of bucks being harvested. The unit went from 1-2 points to draw all the way up to 7-8. A couple years later the unit was a shadow of its former self but the hype has taken much longer to vanish than the quality bucks did. It took 6 points to get that unit in the special last year which is laughable when you look at what other units at that point level are.
My advice, good, bad, or indifferent is to use the mags, paid web experts, instahunters, that are making a living off what they tell you, as a guide of where NOT to apply. By the time they start pimping a unit as the newest, latest, greatest, its too late. Absent tag cuts or some change, the unit will likely never be what it was before all the publicity.
