Be prepared to get that meat on ice quickly, in field if possibly. Antelope in October CAN be hot and dusty. If you are not going to bring the animal in right after shooting, make sure you have a good way to cool it. Antelope can be pretty wild tasting if it rides in the back of the truck in 50 or 60 degree weather all day. My season opens on Oct 1 also, and we bring them in quick and get them to the processor, or hung up and cooled off before going back out or we bring some bags of ice to put in them. Game backs and a few coolers to hold quarters would be good as well.
