OK, he said he killed it at 6:15 a.m. at 35 yds with his Matthews LX bow and Gold Tip arrows shooting 100 gr. Thunderheads. Was back at home with it skinned and gutted by 8:00 a.m. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Rough measurements give him 13 3/4 inches in length and a P&Y score of about 65...

Are you sure it was dead when he took that picture? He's gripping those ears pretty darn tightly!
Good show.

Did he kill the antelope in West Tennessee?? I've been in West Tennessee many times and I can't recall country that looks like that. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

I know that some people call them speedgoats, but you should tell your brother that no matter how much gas he tries to give the right ear, I just don't think it's going to accelerate for him anytime soon. Especially since he's still got the clutch pulled in... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Nice. Taken from a blind?

No blind--Spot and Stalk on private land. He got lucky with the wind and a few draws that allowed him to get close. The guy that works for my brother killed his the next day at such an insane distance with his bow, I'm not even going to tell the yardage. Here is a pic of Ronnie's buck----he'll make P&Y with a little to spare. He already has 5 or 6 deer, 2 elk and this makes his second antelope in the P&Y Book... ![[Linked Image]](http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2002-12/73628/Ronny.jpg)

I do what I can. I pulled a chest muscle in Jiu Jitsu class this evening...You guys had me laughing out loud and yelling out in pain And now, THE REST OF THE STORY... "I pulled a chest muscle in Jiu Jitsu class this evening... but my instructor wasn't as willing as I'd thought, for she proceeded to pummel me with every move known to the Orient. Now I'm sitting in jail browsing the Campfire on the laptop of a friendly drunk and every bone and muscle complains each time I laugh at your jokes or the pictures of Big Stick."
