    Just because I'm not sure where my bow is at right now doesn't mean I can't make it put the pointy stick thingy into the target whatchamacallit deal. Ok?

    I'm a fan of euro mounts myself. I learned my lesson long ago. Having a bunch of shoulder mounts etc takes up to much room and are a pain to move. Euros are nice to handle.
    My GF's shoulder mount is sitting on the floor in the basement because there is nowhere to put it.

    Too bad we can't start off the competition with some bonus points from that speed goat you got!! Great job man. I've never had antelope... how does their meat compare if any to that of a whitetail? any noticeable difference??

    This is a DIY hunt that I have on my bucket list. Was this a Wyoming hunt?

    A DIY antelope hunt is on my bucket list. Have to get the kids out of daycare before I can get any kind of disposable income back to make the trip.

    That's my cooler getting loaded into the plane. I've never had it. We got it dressed and cooled down right away. Hopefully it will be very good!

    I Used an outfitter. I could see this being a very doable DIY hunt. I didn't have that much time so I never considered it. I hope you get to do it, it's great getting to hunt in August.

    Haven't had time to do much still. Got a new Hawk Combat stand and sticks. Messed around with those tonight. It will be a good stand to add to the arsenal as a set it and forget it stand. Except I won't forget it lol. Trying to get my new sight tuned in but I need more time with it. Westfinger did a hell of a job though good job again man!

    STC_0538.JPG STC_0031.JPG STC_0531.JPG Latest card pull. Overall it was disapointing no daylight big bucks. Nice to see some good deer in the area, but I need to find where they are hanging during daylight. Lots of corn all over this farm. Game on!

    Your disciplined, during the summer I can go that long but this time of year 2-3 weeks seems like an eternity. I ordered a couple more brownings to put out on that new ground. Hopefully I will be able to get out and pull some cards and reset my cellular camera on Monday.
    Dropped the goat off at the taxidermist. Ouch, another reason I'm not a big fan of shoulder mounts is the cost.
