Dat's a nice speed-goat.  Antelope=fast food!

Ol' man Dutton's dekes are mighty effective when you use 'em right!  He's a great guy and about as eccentric as you can imagine.  He also makes a really nice folding rifle bench.  If you ever get to Faith, SD just ask around and people will point out his shot to you..drop by and say hello to him. 

Where were you hunting antelope?  (I would have asked where you shot this goat but you would have said "in the ribs", right?)
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

Leroy, that is one beautifull animal. Any antelope with any kind of bow is more then most of us will get a chance to do. Congratulations!.

SE Alberta My home territory. I get to hunt them not even a half hour from my door. But only get a tag every 8yrs. I am lucky to be able to do it.
Travis- If you get the urge to do this start drawing. I know a guy that'll help you out ;)

You're right.  I need to start drawing for them.  Antelope always have looked like a fun hunt.  Wouldn't have a clue what to do but that's never stopped me before... :)
