Dandy buck! Archery?

3TOE · May 16, 2020

This is my archery buck from WY in 2018. He was smaller than the buck I got in NV, but an archery pronghorn is no easy task.

No my NV buck was rifle. I just posted an archery buck from WY that I got in 2018.

Nice goat as well??

Thanks man! My wait period is over here in NV, so I’m back in the mix to draw again. Pronghorn are my new favorite animal to hunt behind turkeys.

Switchback00 · May 16, 2020

I agree! Hoping this is finally my year in Nevada for a speedster. Something about Nevada antelope to me that is different from the other states.

Good luck to you. I know I have close to no chance of drawing a buck tag here. I have 3 points for horns shorter than ears so I have a good shot at drawing that tag.
I bought a landowner tag in NM this year for a hunt in August, I’m hoping for a great buck on that hunt. ??

Thanks! Hopefully I have one. Lol
I know... I’m ready for the results already!!!

maddog58 · May 16, 2020

Hope to draw in NV. Have 4 points so I probably won’t as a NR. Next year will be different when I get moved back to Elko in a few months. Should draw Wy antelope though

Switchback00 · May 16, 2020

Good luck! I have a few choices on my application around the elko area.

PCPython · May 16, 2020

I just applied for points only this year but with 17 points currently I'm hoping to pull a Nevada antelope tag in the next few years.

Buckbrush · May 16, 2020

Dang treed again! Looks like 7 inch cutters on that rascal, I love big cutters . Beautiful.

oilcan · May 16, 2020

I would love to draw Antelope this year but only have 12 NR points.
If I don’t draw this year I think I’m switching to only the Archery seasons.

bpbigperm · May 16, 2020

2018 Nevada. I think 2022 I can put in again.

eelgrass · May 17, 2020

I'm trying for my 3rd NR antelope tag in Nevada but now with only 4 points it may be awhile. At 71 I might not ever go again.

Nothing in digital format. I drew my first tag either the first or second year Nevada offered non-resident tags. Early 90's I think. He's mounted on the wall but not a huge buck. Just a special memory to me. Area 051. My second buck is bigger out of area 142. 15" but not real heavy.

Profile of her buck? Score?

nvpinstripe · May 17, 2020

Wish I had more pics. Wife does not seem to enjoy pictures like I do. Haaa Haa. I wanted one from every angle. I never scored him, but I was estimating low 80’s and high 70’s after drying. She missed this guy during first hour and I know he would have rocked mid 80’s.

I've never done it before but all my choices this year except one border on California. Why? Not so far to drive. LOL! And I love all that country south of Sheldon NWR.

I killed this guy as a NR in 2017. Eligible to start putting in again next year as a resident. I have also been on a few other antelope hunts in NV and always wonder why we don't have the numbers that WY has? Habitat all looks similar, feed is great, and they aren't over hunted. Seems like the densities should be higher?? That being said, I've hunted them in 5 states and NV is by far my favorite.-------SS

mevertsen · May 23, 2020

I drew the same tag this year as I had in 2012, and same area for archery in 2007. I did not harvest in 2007.

The one I got in 2012 was 5 miles from my house, when my wife and I first started dating. I still remember her bouncing through the field in my old truck after I shot it. Clara was in the passenger seat bouncing around like a pin ball.

I have since killed 3 doe antelope in the same area, and my daughter (6 in this pic) has killed 1 doe as well last year. The longest trip home after killing an antelope has been 15 minutes.

Hoping to have the family along this year as well, huntng antelope minutes from my house. I love it.
