2008 antelope success!!!!

[huntfourever]

I shot him on the second day of the hunt. I was hunting a water hole. He came in with 15 other goats. I scouted the unit three times before the hunt started and spotted hime on the second trip. I couldn't be happier. What do you guys think he will score?????

Thanks, I took the picture from a tripod with the camrea on self timer. I only had 10 sec to get set-up. It took some doing to get in the picture in time.

I shot him in NW Colorado. It was really wet this year. They had alot of snow and rain in August.

That is one heck of an archery antelope. Easily way into the P&Y book and could possibly go B&C. Nice job!

Great buck! Gotta be bumping either side of 80. Way to go!

Congrats! Nice buck. It's hard to tell with just one view for a score. I would guess it's around 80. It has good mass and a high prong. A trophy for sure.

Great lope. Any antelope taken with a bow is a trophy. What is his his horn length? He' very high on the cutter and seems to carry the length on through. Just a guess i would put him around 78. Congrats

 

[RACKMASTER]

P&Y book for sure!
snow in August?
good looking antelope!

Thanks, for all nice comments about my antelope. When, I first saw the buck, while scouting, I guessed him in low 80's. He was the biggest buck I've ever seen, while hunting. When he came into water, I was just a nervous wreck. Here's the measurements

Left Side
L 15 inches
P 4.5
M1 6 3/4
M2 6 2/8
M3 3 3/4
M4 2 3/4
total 39

Right Side
L 15
p 4
M1 7
M2 6 2/8
M3 3 3/4
M4 2 3/4
Total 39 6/8
Grand Total 78 6/8


I hope this works betters

I thought he was closer to 16 inches long. He carries his mass and prongs really high and I think that lead me to think he was longer than he really was. I guessed his prongs around 5 1/2 inches. A couple inches here and there makes a real big difference on a goat. I still couldn't be happier!!!
