Nice. Great pictures. Thanks for sharing.
I guess hunting animals where they bed, eat, or travel must be unsporting also.

Yup! Hunting buck antelope with a bow sure is unsporting!!! All you have to do is get within 30 or 40 yards, draw without being seen, heard or smelled, not falter under pressure, and manage to shoot through any vegetation between him and you. Seriuosly, anybody that can kill an antelope with a stick and a string has invested lots of time in the sport, and has my respect.

Nice goat and great pictures. I am not much for shooting them when they come to water, however. Seems unsporting to me. must be unsporting as hell when the wife and i "play cow" so we can walk to with in 150-200 yards of them to plink one with a high powered rifle

Would have liked to see the one that got away

I still had a couple doe tags in my pocket and decide to pull my blind last weekend, but might as well hunt it one more time. Got one doe and passed on another. Though it wasn't the greatest shot, I watched her go down within eye sight. Once again, just a doe, but pretty neat pronghorn activities. This little guy was on the move early. I have not seen many doe at my waterhole, but this gal came in with a couple fellas. I hit her a little far back, but she wasn't going far. She didn't feel good, but the boys were ready to go. The two bigger bucks were putting on a good fight and a couple subordinates watched the action with me. Hey fellas, neither of you will be getting any.:D Pretty powerful fight. We have a winner.

Several times during the wait I thought she was done, but would eventually pick her head up. Not the perfect shot, but it worked out and she is in the frig. \[img] http://www.hunttalk.com/forums/gallery/files/5/2/7/p1050258__large.jpg[/img]
