Hey guys been on here for awhile lurking and decided to introduce myself.

2021 Wyoming was my first ever antelope hunt. Living in Oregon it takes a lifetime to get a tag and I burned my pts in Wyoming with a couple friends and made the trip out.

Opening day I found this buck first thing. My friend has hunted antelope all over the west and being our first morning talked me into passing. I loved his big prongs and decided to pass and hope I could turn him up if we didn't find better. We covered the unit the first day just looking at country and a hour before dark we were heading back towards the area this buck was in. I told him if we could find him I was going to try and fill my tag. Well luck was on my side and we turned him up after one shot I had my first ever antelope! He doesn't have much for height but his prongs are awesome and just to good to pass twice.

I'd have to look at the map again. South of Cody.

I got set up and the final range was 711 yards. One shot and he was down. I practice and shoot often and with the calm conditions that evening felt 100% confident in the shot. The bad part is the wife killed a great got the next year in New Mexico and makes mine look small!
