[QUOTE="Weda, post: 186396"] One thing to remember. if you ride around in a truck all day. You'll miss as many as you see. While employing this techinique works well. Often walking over the next rise 1000 yards away will reveal alot more antelpoe.. as they are the ones who grew tired of the road hunters. Remember they can see like they have a 10X binocular strapped to their head. So if you can see them they can without question see you! While fast flat shooting rifle make things easy. The 308 can be as sucessful as the 7stw. Know your rifle and shoot it often to the ranges you feel comfortable. Hunting with a spotter makes life alot easier but stalking much more challenging. if you go without knee and elbow pads you'll regret it 10 min into the first stalk. If you wear Knee and Elbow pads you'll only have to pick out the prickly pears from your chest, thighs and stomach.. this will save you about an hour in the evening. Antelope are not hard to kill... but if you wound one.. 60 mph will put distance between you and recovery awefully fast. DO NOT DRAG your speed goat it will be hairless when you get back to the truck. You need 2 people and a 6' stick or gut it an put it on your shoulders. Be prepare they are a Goat.. hence "speedgoat" and they do stink. If oyu shoot one while running... the meat might as well be all sausage... DO NOT shoot them after they have run or while running. Kill one while they are relaxed and calm. The meat is 100% better. One reason LR is the way to go on a Speedgoat. [/QUOTE]
