I can see how people think they look a bit silly, I like them though.

My wife would be included in that group haha.

I'm going to give it a shot, never spot n stalk hunted before, nor have I chased antelope so it should be fun!

Saw a few good bucks while driving to Billings last Saturday, from what I could tell one of them was in the lower 70's which would be awesome for my first pronghorn!

Good luck Jacob! I've never used one but my buddy last year on the elk hunt said he was going to. Never did, too bad I'd have loved to get it on film. In all honesty I've decoyed goats in with a white tshirt. Like all "tricks", most goats are going to run the other way, but the couple that do come in it'll be exciting!

Thanks Ryan!

I'm hoping so, I know its standard to sit in a blind, but I've had my fill of that turkey hunting through the years lol
