[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1700559, member: 88320"] No great tips but antelope are like sheep, they are hard to judge until you get to put your hands on a bunch and measure them. Then you start to get the idea what it takes to score. Also learning what’s average for your area, then use those measurements as a base and judge each part of the horn measuring against your base. Then you can start to put it together if it’s more mass or length your looking at a better than average antelope for your area. For example where I’m at the average mature antelope will score 75-77 inch 15 length with average prongs. I use this base in my mind then judge each part against it, Im in the land of giant antelope country, so our average probably isn’t average everywhere. When they are over 85 their horns looking freakishly big to there head size. The real big ones are easy to pick out. [/QUOTE]
