Antelope hunting has become one of my most looked forward to hunts of the year. I have hunted antelope in Wyoming with my bow before but with alot of close calls but never success. When I drew this tag, I was really excited to hunt one of the better areas in the state but knew that I had a slim chance of being successful.
I spotted this buck while driving down the highway and after a long sneak down a wash. I had to wait for a group of does to feed over a hill above the wash that I was sneak down so that I could get a look at a spot that was out of view. I peaked my head out of the wash and was shocked to see his horns sticking above a bush 30 yards away. I drew my bow and had to re adjust my stance so my bow wasny hitting the bank, I wistled and wistled and finally the buck stood up and I was able to make my shot. My first shot unfortunatly was far back and a second sneak and shot was required to put the buck down. I was stoked to kill such a good buck and my bow!
Because it was so hot that day, I was rushing to get the meat cooled as best I could. I loaded in my subaru on a tarp and packed bags of ice in and aroudn the buck to cool it and drove home to Salt Lake.
My Subaru may never smell the same.
