Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game First antelope hunt imminent.... advice?

Yep...

Some people won't let themselves be helped.

I guess it's that old lead a horse to water thing

I hung it where I can check with binocs from the house. If that happens I'll just have to beat the critters to it. Or not. At the end of the day it's just a dang dead ungulate skull, not like its grandma's ashes or something.

In the subject line, you asked for advice. Has you used any of it?

He's a troll, nothing more, nothing less.

no, that is the one thing he is not.

Unreal....

I really tried to stay out of this.

But you really are one dumbazz mofo.

Years worth of points for a tag. You shoot a buck you deem worthy. And then hang it up like that. Unreal.

GD you are not the brightest guy in town.. To help with the process why didn't you cut the hide off the head and get it down to the skull. But I'm sure you just took that photo to get a stir out of people. As smomepole said you are [bleep] stirrer and live for this [bleep]. I left Oregon 19yrs ago and because of folks like you makes me glad I'm never going back..

Exactly. Complete dipshit but has guys patting him on the back here. I would honestly flatten the dipshits nose if I ever met him.

Anytime you try to give good advice to this dipshit it is time wasted . Even tho I totally disagree with your methods on taking care of the head, at least you had a method that worked for you. The dumbass Jeff just wants to be a [bleep] diva and look cute while wasting everyone's time. There are a few people that know him by name and reputation from here. I will honestly drop the [bleep] if I was ever to meet him

Too add good taxidermist do not charge all that much for a good euro mount either. Says alot about a guy who will spend a fortune on a rifle but won't spend$200 for a nice European mount.

15 years waiting, shoot an absolute pisshead two year old buck , seemingly only to get attention from those that you try to be loved by (men).Few things I'm sure of, you build a [bleep] rifle, about he [bleep] hunter ive I've read of ,yet you have guys here giving you props, guys that you wouldn't even be allowed to polish their boots for a mornining hunt .i guess everyone here is in to awarding participation trophies.. you're the biggest piece of [bleep] I've never met.

I knew I shouldn't have tuned into this thread...JeffO never disappoints , he's still the biggest Piece of [bleep] on the Campfire.....

For a tag that your lucky to get maybe every 12-15 years here in Oregon I had hoped you would take care of the trophy a little better than that. Gotta admit that it is lame so why even post it here???

Wrong. I don't like to read about people drinking in hunt camp either. Not that I'm against drinking, it's just not one of the things I'd dwell on if I was writing a post about a hunt. It sends the wrong message and it's not what hunting is about. At least for me.

Say what you want about alcohol vs cannabis, the fact is alcohol has been an accepted part of our culture for millennia and weed still is not. Moderate alcohol use is not offensive to most but weed is offensive to many. So your post is offensive to many and yes, I get that you don't give a sh** and I think that's sad.

Just like you don't give a sh** about those horns, I get that too. But as you can see, many do so your posting that photo is just another example of sh**-stirring and attention whoring. Congratulations. "Stick it to the man." We are not "the man."

Jeff try and give you the benefit of a doubt because you good naturedly put up with a lot of schit on here for the most part but sheesh!

On a positive note next year's lucky tag holder will have a better shot at a what should be a really mature buck that Jeff did not bother to look for
Hate to judge other hunters that are satisfied and follow all laws when taking an animal

I feel the same way about anyone that uses tobacco, alcohol; other drugs or engages in high or even low-risk adventures. No one should expect anyone else to pay their freight.

Any anyone that is using tobacco or alcohol and gets on Jeff-O's case is a hypocrite.

Full disclosure: Back in the late 60's my younger brothers and I had a saying "Better living through chemistry." That included mushroms and cactus. I smoked weed for about 12 years and cigarettes longer. Gave it all up but still enjoy an occasional glass of wine with my dinner.

Welp.

Touching base to say boy were Leroy & Jordan and others right, and boy was my "plan" wrong.

Looked out there with my binocs this morning and it'd ALREADY slipped the horn it was hanging from! D'oh. Went out and retrieved the stinky [bleep] and will proceed more or less according to Mr. Beans' suggestions. Thanks again guys.

Enjoy conversing with you because you generally make valid, succinct points and usually avoid getting overly personal. I'll give you a mulligan because clearly I upset you. But to MY point, what you are saying there clearly illustrates why, in my view, guys like me should be talking about this. If not me, who? If not here, where? If it's not talked about, then how do attitudes evolve and change? Do you not agree that attitudes should evolve and change? Why exactly am I supposed to be so ashamed of this? Why exactly do I have to stay in the closet so to speak? Because some people are idiots about it? To avoid hurting some precious lil feelers?

Buck up, troopers, and to turn the rhetoric around just because it amuses me, stop being snowflakes about this with your trigger words and micro-aggressions. It's no better than the wacky-pronoun gender-confused kids these days pitching fits about "whatever". Get over your preciousness.

Guess that's sort of pointed your direction but it's a more general statement. I'm just aiming at you 'cause you aimed at me.

Peace out.
