I spent the last week chasing antelope in WY with BuzzH.

We looked over hundreds of antelope every day for 6 days. We also saw 60-80 coyotes, 3 or 4 300”+ bull elk, and close to 100 sage-grouse.

Buzz’s wife shot a nice buck on opening day, and Buzz got his buck on day 5. That was the best buck we saw while we were there. I’m sure he’ll post some photos shortly. After all the looking we did, I got fooled by this buck on day six. Still a great hunt, and the buck didn’t make it easy on me.

We went out yesterday so I could fill my doe tags. Got these girls out of the first herd we saw.

Nice looking buck Oak. He looks to have pretty good cutters on him.
 
Oak, congrats on being part of the taking of three fine bucks.
nice pics. what cameara are you using?
 
JB, I'm using the Panasonic FZ-20.

Craig, I realized when I got home that I didn't take any pictures except for dead critters. Had the camera in my backpack the whole time. I could have gotten some sweet pictures of a burrowing owl if I had it handy. I saw eleven raptor species during the hunt.

I've got to wait 6 whole days to go chase speedgoats again. ;)
 
What did you mean about the buck fooling you on day six?size?

no Marv, they were playing the "which shell is the pea under" game. :D (retaliative post)

seriously, it looks like a good antelope too me....may be a lil shy on mass but has nice prongs and decent length....i'd be happy with it.

Yeah, he wasn't quite what I thought he was, but a nice buck nonetheless. There's always next year. ;)
 
Pointer,

Oak practices a lot and thats why he makes the shooting look so easy. To have the kind of shooting skills he does...takes a lot of range time. Spending that much time at the range would kill an average man.
