Yep, nothing like good goatalope on the grill. My wife and I each have two tags this year, and are looking forward to filling a considerable part of the freezer with e'm. Luckily, the Montana rifle season starts the second week of October, one of the latest in the country, so it's far easier to cool the meat. Last fall, in fact, my wife got hers on a 24-degree morning!

One thing I've noticed about pronghorn is that unlike some other big game animals, they all taste fine, even big bucks taken during the peak of the rut.
