Richard S antelope 019web.jpg16 yds one out of six bucks that charged into water with two does.  Richard wasted no time in letting the air out of his first archery pronghorn.  Congrats.  So we are done for a couple days.  Now to get ready for Saturday.  One elk hunter one antelope hunter and two deer hunters.  Gives me shivers.

Brownie escapes

Posted by Wes on 20 Aug 2007 | Tagged as: Antelope

A buck we named Brownie watered at 6:30 tonight and nearly joined hands with his ancestors.  It was not his time though as all antelope are not created equal, but all are created paranoid.  Thus he lives and Richard has to sit another day in 92 degree weather.  I think they could market Double bull blinds as saunas.  Don’t worry about me though I’m good, my double door toyota has AC.  We’ll get one tomorrow.

Tom Palmer antelope 014web.jpg

Tom with his wife Joan on their first hunt together, and great success to boot.  We hunted this bachelor herd of 8 bucks hard for the last two days and one finaly got thirsty.  Tom smoked him at 25 yards the buck never slowed down on his way to water.  They sat for 1 1/2 days for 10 seconds of ADRENALINE WOW!  A great pope and young buck with character and mass.  This will go great along side the buck that Tom shot last year on a stalk.  Elk and deer looked great this morning I saw 3 bomber bulls out of 41 total.  Caught a great mule deer buck at a water hole, should have a chance at him there.  Another goat hunter in morning.

Antelope opener

Posted by Wes on 18 Aug 2007 | Tagged as: Antelope

We started with our opener for antelope today and the day ended up antelope 1 AE 0.  Did see a pile of elk this morning a couple hundred and I counted 37 bulls 2 over 300″ but most were 3 year olds.  Rob scouted another ranch and watched a spike bull bugling his head off…..he’ll learn.  We’ll get a goat tommorrow.
