Cooler Size
Even the 100’s were to heavy. I just need it for transport in the back of the truck. I can drive right up to the freezer. No need to move the cooler thank God.- tmike51

Cooler Size
Last fall I killed a 4yr old bull and had to break the quarters down at the joints to fit them into my 100qt coolers. I am going to pick up something bigger and wanted to know what size you think is best. I would like to keep the quarters whole so I can hang them in a walk in freezer to age when...- tmike51

I will be driving 18 hours, pulling a box trailer tricked out as a camper. We will bring 3-4 very large coolers and prefer to process all our meat ourselves. Thank you for the reply!!!- tmike51

Bear Jackson Hole
This guy actually guided my Pop to a 330 class bull back in 2016. My pops, who is a lifelong hunter, had nothing but praise for Mark. He raved about his caution and prepardness. It is a tragic tail. Even if you “KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO DO” anyones luck can run out. It is ignorant to think... -

Mule deer vs. Coues
The hardest part of Coues hunting is the spotting. Once you get eyes on they are not overly difficult to harvest, if you can keep eyes on, similar to stalking a mountain muley. They are called the grey ghosts for a reason though, they are small and live in country that can completely hide them... -

How do you use your Antelope Meat???
Everyone has made some excellent points, but they forgot what is in my opinion the prime cut if handled right. The tongue. I like to brine mine for 24hrs then simmer it for 2 to get off the outer skin. Apply your favorite seasoning and smoke as low and smokey as you can for 45 minutes or so.
