Went out the last few days hunting antelope. My wife and I drew an area on a second choice right close to town. Figured if we didnt draw our first choice area, may as well stay close.
Saw lots of antelope, but nothing of any real size...just tons of average antelope.
Filled a doe tag the first day with a shot at 158 yards. This was my 50th antelope...I never thought I'd bag that many when I started hunting them in the mid 1980's.
After spending a full day looking over several hundred antelope, we decided to just have a good time and take some bucks that offered good opportunities.
I found this one in a herd of over 100. There were 4 bucks all about the same as this one in the herd. It was a challenging stalk with lots of antelope. I got to 251 yards and this one seperated off from the main herd...big mistake for him.
My wife passed up some great opportunities, but finally decided to shoot this one. It was in a neat location and we were able to get really close, about 80 yards.
We usually take our Jack Russell out with us antelope hunting. That dog really enjoys hunting...in particular antelope.
