Just got back from my wifes parker mt antelope hunt. Had a great time. This was her first big game animal. It was fun to watch the day unfold. She had some realy close calls, and wether it was a spooky animal or a missed shot she just was not able to connect on about 6 or 7 real decent animals.
Due to a short time period to hunt (just the weekend) (mainly Saturday) it was now evening, and still no notch in the tag. But that changed with about 1/2 hour of light remaining. We found this guy and he gave her a great broadside shot - 120 yards. That one shot was all it took the goat only traveled about 10 yards (if that). It was a great hunt. She has already told me that she will definatly put in for an antelope tag again.
One of the other highlights of the day was a small buck that ran within 50 yards of us. I have video of him that I will try and share latter on when I download it from the camera.
