[QUOTE="brant89, post: 1126932, member: 49553"] Sorry to post another, "another first antelope" thread, but I'm sure at least a few of you are interested. I took my stepdad on an antelope hunt in Wyoming unit 9 and we had pretty decent success. Thanks to all who gave me advice to make this a successful hunt. We each drew 6 tags (3 each) and filled both buck tags and two doe tags in spite of antelope numbers being down in our area. Of course, as it worked out, my stepdad (who has only recently gotten into long range, mostly for this trip) got all the long range shot opportunities. I keep telling him that I get half the credit for teaching him and calling the range and windage, LOL. All jokes aside they were all great shots. Here are a few pictures. I passed up the small buck in the crosshairs on opening day. Cool pic so I thought I would share it. I drew first blood on a doe at 260yds, and he answered back the next day with a heart shot at 530yds. It took a few days to find bucks that we would be happy with in our living rooms, but the second to last day I heart shot my buck at 336yds. On the very last day we got on another shooter buck mid-afternoon and my stepdad put one through both lungs at 568yds. It's also worth mentioning that he managed all the walking and packing out after breaking his foot during a fence crossing on opening day. It was a fantastic hunt and I'd be thrilled to do it again sometime. (My wife was upset that she didn't get to go so I'll take that as a hint.) [/QUOTE]
