nice pics where was this taken. Good job on the yote too![AR15]
Scott drove down from Chicago and picked his dad up in Branson Missouri.
Scott started the day with a 393 yard shot on a coyote. His first kill with a rifle. Dad (75 years old) couldnt connect with any antelope the first day. Scott finished the day with a 253 yard running shot on his 2nd kill of the day.
Day 2 Scott shot the buck his dad missed the day before.
Day 3 Jim got lucky and at 400 yards got his first antelope. He hadnt rifle hunted since the 50's

I had wonderful time this last weekend and got a nice buck. I screwed up by getting the wrong GMU so I did not get to hunt with anyone I know. Thankfully the family owns several thousand acres in the GMU that I got so I was able to hunt. However the other GMU I would have access to several properties, company and driving. Thankfully this patch of land had a couple herds passing through and I was able to get this buck. My step father was worried about fires because the vegitation was awfully dry so he would drop me off and I would hike in about 1.7 miles. Thankfully on the 2nd day I got the buck close to a safe road and was able to not have to bring him out with a long hike. I got this buck with my FN Patrol Rifle 308 at 475 yards he was starting to run with the herd since he was the only buck with 13 females. This was also a kneeling overhand shot since the weeds were way to high for a prone bipod. I had practiced 40 long range shots to get my bullit drops figured out since these Antelopes were not getting close on Saturday. Got it dialed in figureing I was getting an 18 inch drop at 420 yards with the ammo I was using. I used a Sightron 2 6X24 Mildot scope. I figured the 2nd dot gave the proper range and it did. I was able to process this guy in 2 hours with the Outdoor Edge knife sets. Going to have some for dinner on Saturday. Olive oil and montreal seasoning marinate over night. Goes good with rice. Next year I will hunt a Doe since I alternate every year. Funny thing every year it seems Id get more shots on the sex I am not hunting, goes the same for deer. Cant wait for the next deer hunt coming up!
great job guys, i hope to get out for some pronghorn one day.
maybe i will have a deer and elk to show off in nov for ya.
I hate to say it, but I probably would have dragged that old wagon home.....
more pictures soon

Whew, thought I saw a double rainbow...
Anyone ever had pronghorn jerky? Is it close enough to venison to be good? I still think smoke buffalo is the best so far.
This was exposed in a ditch....30 06 shell for size

I was thinking petrified wood as well. Isn't that bark around that first picture?
Ive seen a lot of petrified wood........maybe this stuff never got hard
You think it might be a fungus of some sort?
The outer layer is made up of fine crystals

That badger skull is cool. Do you ever bleach/beetle the skulls that you find?
Some I bring home, usually end up giving them away.
We do wire skulls to the barn in wyoming usually when we come back later most are gone
