Title: Early Antelope Success
Post by: Jack Skinner on August 24, 2018, 10:48:35 AM
After a less than stellar start to a wet, over populated (blinds on all usual water holes) antelope season I was able to get a really nice heart shaped buck.

This is for Bisch just to get his juices flowing even more for antelope.

I had forgotten my phone for pictures that morning. So all I got was cape out hero shots. This is my best goat to date. The taxidermist green scored him at 73 2/8. Not a book person but nice to have a reference for next year.

Thanks all
Cacciatore Bunk house I am buying

Joe2Crow I am going to say 23 yards, he was around the water for over an hour. He watered in a part of the tank could not cover and I thought he got away Scott free. But for some reason he walk back in front of my blind and I figured now or never. Normally I would only shoot when watering but after hours of antelope walking by at 18 to 25 yards I figured I was letting good shot opportunities get away. This time it worked out great.

Terry if I don't see you I am always in need of your Great service

Great hunting Jack.  I've been after those goats this year and have only been able to get 80 yards from one.  Congratulations.

Trad_bowhunter65 it appears to me that you have a beautiful goat yourself, well done

Rob it surprises me how many folks don't like antelope, mostly because they don't properly care for meat in hot early season. It is my favorite.

Nice to be selected as bowhunter of week . Sweet Thanks moderators
