Got a nice antelope on opening day in area 57. Out near Rawlings I believe. We drove in about 45 miles into that area and got two goats. My buddy got one too. I had my 7mm mag and a range finder on hand and shot this one at about 50 yards!! Heck of a shot!! lol Almost drove right up to him. I was expecting to do some long distance shooting but I aint complaining. Hunting in Wyoming is certainly different than here in PA. Looking forward to hanging this on my wall. I really like Wyoming, it is a beautiful state. Although not in Wyo. I also visited Garden Of the Gods park And the Cliff dwellers site in Colorado. Went to Top Golf too. Cool places to visit. Ken

I didnt get it scored yet. I was informed that it cant be scored for 60 days. That was info given to me by a B&C guy out in Wyoming.

Great goat. Good job. I’ve hunted sage grouse in that area.

I do not care for antelope meat. It is one game animal I will pass on.... Antelope is some of the finest eating around, unless you take one that has been running. Bed down a herd in the evening and then approach from the east as the sun rises and get into position before they stand to start the day. Get them skinned and cooled quick as you can. goldnut; You have a very nice buck there.

I do not care for antelope meat. It is one game animal I will pass on.... It's my favorite big game animal for eating. It does have a distinct flavor and it seems people either love it or hate it.

I do not care for antelope meat. It is one game animal I will pass on.... In our family elk is #1 but antelope is a close #2 with deer a distant 3rd. We try to do our killing on opening morning and most of the antelope we tag were munching on something or lounging shortly before they died.

Nice ram!
Most of the hunted game animals in Africa are antelope of one species or another, and there they call males "rams," not "bucks."
North American antelope are a species I've always wanted to hunt.
Best eating game meat, imho, is mountain sheep, followed closely by moose and elk.
Worst game meat I ever ate was from a mountain goat I shot. It smelled horrible and tasted worse.
