Thanks fellas and good luck to those who are going.
Now I can start scouting for my elk hunt. I drew a cow tag for unit 48. Hope I can tag one. Near the truck.

Grilled pronghorn tenderloin bacon wrapped and seasoned with a little garlic. Tonights celebratory dinner.

This is only my second pronghorn, but I think it's the best tasting venison there is. Shoot a healthy one, get it in ice quickly, and let it soak in the ice water a day or two. I processed the backstraps today, tomorrow the shoulders and hind quarters. Plan to make some summer sausage and chili grind from the trimmings.

I'm thinking those horns are pushing 15" with high cutters. Should score well. You did good.

Thank you. I haven't measured the horns yet. I plan to put them on a plaque mount. I have a nice pronghorn shoulder mount already. My next shoulder mount I hope will be an elk or a good mule deer.

Worked on the horns today, 45 minutes in the hot water and they pulled off of the core. Have borax inside the horns and the skull plate in salt. Going to try a diy horn plaque. I've done multiple deer antlers but these pronghorns are weird! Could hardly believe what was inside those things.

Nice plaque mount. Did you put anything on the horns to make them black or preserve them? My horns are not that black.
