If you were Eli Grimmett

[The Hedgehog]

And somebody told you a MT antelope hunt in unit 556 (formerly 512 and 514) was in your future, what would you do?

My quick 5 minute review tells me it's quite a pronghorn area. Where are some stomper (10-12") antelope available to hunt, without worrying about playing the introduce yourself to people who hate you at hello game?

Context? I guess I could Google Eli Grimmet, but don’t necessarily want the algorithm to swing in his favor if it’s going the way I think it’s going.

He's like the world's greatest antelope guru. I suspect him having to hunt in this area would be like a fate worse than death for him.

There are antelope gurus? Load up a cooler of beer and start driving.

I think there is enough public land to have a good hunt.

Define good hunt - get a 11" buck on blm and have a good time with a pal that has a permit? Or good hunt as in the Eli Grimmett context in the subject?

I’d say good time with a pal. Eli names his bucks.

I would laugh and say I have bigger lopes in NM

I think Eli could turn almost any unit into an 84”er.

I'm going all Eli Grimmet with my Montana antelope tag this year. mtmuley

If I'm starting by pretending I'm Eli, I'd start by pretending I was in Wyoming.

Well, there's actually a professional Crappie Fishing Tournament Trail.

Why not an Antelope Guru?

Eli’s def the antelope whisperer but I say have a good time and drop whatever blows your dress up!

Especially with the M94! That’s ultimate bragging rights.

There will be some excellent names

Are the antelope hammering in that unit? Wait I think that’s an elk term.

Carry on.

3 big counties, 2 have the majority of their ground in different units. Of those 3 counties, total of 4 antelope in P&Y. 8 over 80” B&C most recent one about 30 years ago. I wouldn’t normally bet against Eli finding a big one, but I’d remortgage my house for this bet.

Yeah Eli definitely can judge an antelope better than about anyone but even he can’t make them grow inches. I suspect your spot on. You ask what would Eli do? Same thing about everyone else does that hunts a big mule deer in Montana and knows what one is. EAT IT

He can not do any worse than Doyle did in the Bitterroot on mule deer a few years back.

This is not the bitterroot for deer or even the Custer. Possibly even lower grade than the Gallatin for elk.

Eli, no Wyoming, NM, or Arizona, you get CARBON COUNTY WYOMING, MONTANA.

Finding a nice buck would be like this..
