My friend, Chip from Minnesota...just a hair under 16".

I am researching for a 2010 Antelope now, maybe next year I will have a pic to add. I have never hunted anything other then whitetails here in WV but I have a bad urge to hunt antelope and elk over the next few years. Anyways, let's see some more pics!

My son, Sean with his first antelope....1993.

I know you'd probably pass on most of mine, Pat- but here's one from this year

On the hoof- with a 3X zoom

On the ground

Greenscored 72.....

 

[Grady]

But it was bigger than last years dink....small enough to fit in a daypack.

First one, before the days of digital cameras. Nothing huge, but for not ever having shot an antelope, I was really happy. And, the two year-old hunting partner thought it was really cool. October 1992.

And my son's first antelope, ten years later.

And his first out of state hunt, two years after that - Unit 95 - Wyoming, 2004.

Great pix guys. I'd play, but it looks like photobucket ate all my pic's guess I'll have to start over..dang that will be a lot of scanning..

 

[Breaks Runner]

Beautiful bucks guys!! Grady, nothing wrong with that buck at all..

Here's a Wyoming buck from back in 1985...he was 14 1/4" but had 7" cutters...Red Desert.

IMO antelope are the most underrated big game animal.

My brother-in-law came from Ohio and shot this one on his first antelope hunt. Wyoming 2004.

Huge bottoms and really good prongs, but the tops are very thin. 15" length. With better tops this buck would have made the awards book. Not bad for a first buck.....or any buck, for that matter.

To quote him, "Ain't nothing to this antelope hunting. When we going elk hunting?"

Treasure County, Montana 2008.

 

[Big Fin]

Those are some very nice bucks guys. Keep 'em coming. I know a bunch of other guys who will have some dandies for the thread, so waiting to see them post.

A Colorado buck from 2004. Damn, I was carry some extra poundage back then.

 

[Big Fin]

My son (Cornell2012) and my brother (Log Dawg) with son's second MT antelope. We were more focused on deer hunting, so this buck was mostly an afterthought. Was a ton of fun that day.

 

[Frequently Banned Troll]

Underrated, but as much fun to hunt as anything. what's not to like about that?! Awesome speed goats guys!

 

[Breaks Runner]

My good friend Nick from Iowa with his first buck....Nick helps train MMA fighters out of Bettendorf, Iowa. I attended his wedding back there a few summers ago and met some of his UFC buddies...great bunch of guys....as long as you dont piss them off!!.....grin!!

Nick won the Hodge Trophy in 2001...thats college wrestling most outstanding wrestler award and the equivelent to the Heisman Trophy. Do a google search on Nick Ackerman....it will blow your mind!!!
