Default CLM's 2015 Antelope

Last week we ventured south to try our luck decoying Antelope. It was an action packed hunt to say the least with lots of sightings and tons of action. My hunting partner hurt his knee so I ended up decoying solo which presented many challenges. It seemed we timed it just right however as the bucks had the does herded up and were chasing the satellites hard. On my third decoy attempt all the stars aligned and I managed to get an arrow into this guy at 25 yards. He's not a monster but I am really thrilled with him. It was certainly one of the most exciting hunts that I've ever been on and I cant wait to do it again!

Congrads on the Antelope. Great pictures too - looks like you had a lot of fun.
I got drawn for Archery Antelope as well and have been out a few times. Have my eye on a few bucks in particular but, so far, they haven't reacted strongly enough (80 yards is as close as any of them have come) to the decoy. Hope that changes this week!

Thanks for posting the pictures.

Nice goat, looks like he'll score close to 60"s. that last picture is sweet also. I have my 2005 goat coming back from the Taxidermist soon, he's quite similar to the one you harvested. Will post pics as soon as it arrives.
