Good for you Charlie, I hope you have a great trip. Best of luck.

Wudstix · June 28, 2022, 07:09:23 PM

Would you perhaps be toking a Big River bow? Best of luck and post up.

Thank you Glen. Commuting for this hunt is far easier than when I was out east. I was wondering where you've been. Hope all is well.

Thank you Wud- probably will take the Big Jim bow. I have been hunting it the last 2 years and it's a bit shorter for blind use.

Good for you, Charlie.

Be prepared for long hours in a blind in very hot conditions. Mission brand cooling gear, lots of water, etc.

Hope you get a big one. Post photos when you come back.

Not sure where you are going, but I've never hunted them from a blind. I also never sat on windmills over water holes either. What is your approach?

I'll be out there again this year during the rut!

DGW · July 02, 2022, 11:04:35 PM

Used up my 23 point in Colorado for a unit 2, 201 tag in the northwest corner of the state, hope it's as good as last year. My Brother Jim used his 22 points last year for the 1 Non Res tag and killed his best goat to date last year.

Oh if only. My last time was in the "grasslands" nearly 20 years ago. Hunted from a blind and it must have been over 90 degrees. What an experience. Shot one the first morning of the first day.

Drew a wyoming tag for my first ever antelope hunt. Will hunt a few days with recurve then switch to rifle in October. I'm looking forward to the scenery in N.W part of the state.

I drew a New Mexico tag...a month away!

GCook · July 04, 2022, 09:34:13 AM

I've applied to New Mexico half a dozen times and not gotten drawn.
An antelope is on my list to get in the next couple of years though.

lopey15 · July 04, 2022, 03:29:18 PM

Luck was on my side this year...I drew the pronghorn and also a mule deer tag.

GCook · July 04, 2022, 08:33:13 PM

You should have gotten a lottery ticket too!

Cyclic-Rivers · July 07, 2022, 07:53:08 PM

I've hunted them in the grasslands before. This time around I will in a blind in somewhere Wyoming

Bisch · July 08, 2022, 12:06:32 AM

Take a couple books Charlie. The days in that blind get awfully long, and a good read helps make the time pass easier.

Good luck!

Bisch

Last year I had to put Marv Clyncke's book down to shoot my antelope, moved slow and low to get it done. Books do make the days go quicker.

Cyclic-Rivers · July 14, 2022, 11:08:25 PM

Thanks fellas. I'm hearing it's best to get the hide off them asap. What do y'all do? Bringing a cooler with ice every day isn't practical

lopey15 · July 14, 2022, 11:31:40 PM

I live about 2 hours of where I'm going to hunt. Season opens up in 3 weeks...we are scheduled to have over 10 days straight of 100 degree weather... so yes, skin it...quarter i...and cool it as quick as you can!
