Well,
I finally got an antelope tag in my pocket, and was fortunate enough to put it on a nice little Nevada buck. Having never hunted goats before, I wasn't super sure how this deal would go down, especially with a bow in my hand.
Fortunately for me though, things came together on the 4th day of season. He came in to the blind in the afternoon and despite a horrible first shot I got him on the ground. It definitely wasn't a dream scenario once the first arrow flew, but that's sometimes how it goes in the real world. I did the best I could under the circumstances and luckily came home with a nice buck and some outstanding meat.
I had a great time on the hunt and look forward to doing it again sometime. Apologies for the quality of the field photo, my adrenaline was up pretty high by the time I got this guy anchored and photos were more of an afterthought!
Best of luck to the rest of you!
