[QUOTE="Guy M, post: 710047, member: 8622"] It's been a dream of mine since I was a kid in high school. Made it happen this year. Rest of the story is up in the deer hunting section, as I was also after mule deer. This pronghorn hunting stuff isn't necessarily as easy as I'd believed! We made multiple stalks. Got busted time after time by the does or lesser bucks. Sat through a couple of hours of heavy rain and wind. Missed one easy shot because I was wobbling around too much. Phooey. Finally it all came together. We got close without them knowing it. They ran, then inexplicably stopped! A quick shot from 160 yards and my pronghorn was down! Cool... Only 40 years in the making. Just had some tender antelope backstrap steaks for dinner tonight... Ummmm Good!
