Very important advice, especially if you are used to hunting moose and elk in the bush. I found antelope very hard to estimate range without a rangefinder. The first one I shot I wouldn’t have taken the shot if I didn’t have someone with me who had a rangefinder, the antelope wasn’t nearly as far away as I thought it was. Also if you can see them, they can see you, don’t skyline yourself
