Lope numbers are down in the area I usually hunt, so I was forced to try another area. It worked out my first day in the blind. These three came in right away. Couple pups and mom. First buck to come in. Time to fill one of my doe tags. Didn't go far. Weather was cool, so I stayed tight. This guy came in a hour later. Good meat for a couple hours of work. I may have been able to find a bigger buck, but had to be in WY in a few days. I found a couple bucks bigger than this guy, but decided he would do when I shot him on the opener.

We'll have 3 pref points each in Wyoming and need to get down and do some antelope hunting down there!! Great pics!!!

I'll be up driving there for a hunt Oct 31-Nov 8 hunting moose and deer so I'm hoping the weather is good as well. I was tempted to hunt goat again but will probably go back to Anna's if I can't draw a Montana tag in the next year or two. Good luck. Don't just be a survivor, be a competitor.

Tip: cut the meat real thin and cook it quick then take it out of the pan. Do your onions and peppers, add the seasoning, get it "just right" then add the meat back to the pan. Good scarfing.
