Killed this one near Casper, Wy last Friday Sept. 25th. My very first goat. The rut was on. We hunted with SnS outfitters. 10 guys in camp and all got an antelope, most on the first day. Took me 2 days. I was always kinda slow.

Killed this guy in Northern New Mexico three weeks ago with Drummond " Huntsonora" on here. Had my son along for our first hunt together.

Great antelopes, I really like the coloring on a buck antelope. I think they make great mounts.

Got this Wyoming buck Thursday late morning - orange removed for picture. Really misjudged this one, thought he was just a little guy, ended up being right at 15" and pretty good mass. Was thrilled to take him:)

Nice goats, guys! Here's my first.. Last Sat. Finally drew rifle antelope in a good unit (Idaho). Couldn't get on the herd buck first thing in the morning but coming back down came upon this guy. Tikka T3 SL .223 Must say, I really enjoyed antelope hunting. Who knows if I'll ever draw rifle again so next yea may be bow time (guaranteed tag)!

Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.

Pronghorn hunting is very near the top IMO for fun.

Here are a couple of pictures of my wife's antelope. We only had about a day and a half to hunt and she still managed to get a nice antelope. She had to make a rather hurried shot at a little over 200 yards as he was getting nervous and walking away. You can see the bullet entry wound in one photo and like any other big game animal, shot placement is critical proving that even a .338 Win Mag will kill an antelope.
