[QUOTE="Deane, post: 1589519, member: 109441"] First Western hunt I'd try antelope near the elk mountains. Tag out quick as possible then use the remainder of trip to try and get close to some elk. My first hunt was last fall in WY. Doe antelope. My girlfriend drew the tag along with an any white tail and cow elk. She tagged her antelope from 175 yards. She was using a Savage 99 in 243. It's the rifle I shot my first deer with and my Uncle gave it to her. She was shooting down hill with her pack on my back for a little higher rest. Dropped it one shot first day. I was so proud of her on her first hunt. On the third weekend of her elk hunt we finally got close, but ran out of time. Then I had to leave for Georgia for work. so we never filled her elk and deer tags. I feel like if we had another weekend we would have had a cow elk down. We're moving from Utah to Maine when this job in Georgia is over. We will still be putting in for Wyoming tags though. [ATTACH=full]125410[/ATTACH] Picture is taken from where the antelope dropped. Shot was taken from the front edge of the bigger clump of trees on the left. [ATTACH=full]125411[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
