For antelope usually most people are gone after about 3-4 days
Topgun - How about years like 2014, when most units open up in the middle of the week? Any difference on opening day pressure?
This may make it more interesting, Do you guys have the same opinion as the ones stated above?
This report may help you. It is the 2013 harvest report for antelope. Check out page 49 entitled "Antelope Hunters Hunting On Opening Day". You can also find that in the earlier year's reports.

I would probably say that overall from what I see every year that there is not that much difference when a season opens the middle of the week. Somtimes it seems like it's even been a little busier because guys have the weekend before that to drive out and then maybe a day or two to scout before the opener depending on their drive time. I think the worst is a Monday opener because they have two days to get there and then may stay the entire week and drive home the following weekend..
That makes sense. I will probably go later in the season if I draw.
That's kind of been my plan as well. Since I will be also trying for a muley, hopefully they will be more active later in October...
***Usually we start seeing some better bucks coming out to check does the last week of October even though the real rut doesn't usually start for a couple weeks after that.
