Hunting & Fishing Another WY antelope

[Cinch]

Made it out Saturday to fill my antelope tag. The kids settled on this average for the area buck. I was nice enough to let him crawl off his doe before I put him down. Took him right at 400 yards with a 105 Amax. Was a great day spent with the family.

Nice speed goat! When I lived in Laramie I saw shit tons of them. I hope to make it back there to finally be able to hunt some. You on private or public grounds?

Re: Another WY antelope

This buck was taken on BLM. I haven't hunted private ground in quite awhile. There's tons of antelope out here and its always an easy hunt for the kids.

That one is a Nate Dagley built 6x47 Lapua and just might be my most accurate rifle. It has all the good parts in it....grin

how do you handle the meat in hot weather......
<span style="color: #CC0000">Coolers and ice do the trick. Not much different than caring for deer, but one shouldn't waste too to much time getting them on ice.</span>
favorite recipes...please...
<span style="color: #CC0000">Same as deer</span></div></div>

Congrats on your hunt, looks like you'll be needing some freezer space??

I just got back from Wyoming chasing goats with the bow. Thanks for the encouraging rut report by the way Cinch... I killed mine Saturday morning. Deboned it right out in the field and hauled all my gear and goat back to the road. I had to keep it in the shade for a while until my ride showed up. It was upper 60s/low 70s (not too hot) and probably 4-5 hours before I got the meat back to camp and on ice.

I sampled the backstrap last night (first time eating antelope) and it was AWESOME!!! Quite a bit better than venison IMO. I just seasoned and grilled it up like I would any good piece of beef or venison. I will keep the straps for steaks, and turn the rest into muscle jerky and burger patties.
