How do you judge the size of a antelope in the field?

[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1736564, member: 88320"] There is another post on here about the subject. What has worked for me is setting a standard ( average buck for your area). Measure a bunch from your area and learn what measurements it takes to score, prong length, overall length. With this in your head go out and look at a bunch of antelope and compare them to your standard (say a 70in, 14 length, and 5 in prongs is your standard) for your area. Look at each part of horn and compare to you standard. Is it better or same or less. With this you can judge if its a better than average antelope for your area. remember there are 4 mass measurements and only 1 length, mass adds a lot to pronghorns. With all field judging it takes a lot of practice and experience but scoring a bunch really helped me. [/QUOTE]
