Does anyone know if there might be any hope left in getting left overs tags?

The tag numbers are down for this year, in most of the public lands units (and reasonably-accessible private units). So, don't get your hopes up about getting a leftover tag. Just be sure to make the deadline next year.
Last year was TERRIBLE for Antelope tags. This year is much better, but still far short of average.
I hunt a public lands unit that had
leftover tags all but one year out of the last decade (even nonresident tags). But, this year... I figure I have about a 2% chance of drawing my 2 Doe tags. I didn't even bother trying for a Buck tag...
Of course, you can always try to get 'hooked up' with a landowner in the eastern half of the state (particularly the northeast), as Wyoredman mentioned. Those units almost always have quite a few leftover tags, due to access issues.
