Wyoming Pronghorns

[coyotehunter]

Just wanted to share some picture from our Wyoming hunt this past Labor Day weekend. My buddy and I shot a couple of pronghorn bucks and each shot 2 extra does for meat. We would dress them out immediately and throw them on ice, the meat is excellent! The freezer is getting full!

Awesome looks like you had a blast!

Good deal! We leave on either the 7th-8th for wy. Me and my buddy each have 5 tags. I am hoping to wack a few of them with my handgun but have the long range stick just incase. Cant wait

Hey Carp, how did you get 5 tags each i thought you could only apply for two doe tags, and a buck tag.  Is it different in some units?

[wackmaster]

You can 2 more doe pemits if there are any left over from the drawing.

[coyotehunter]

In our unit(114) if you drew a buck tag you can purchase up to 4 extra doe tags! We didn't want to get greedy and we only had so much cooler space.

is there alot of rattlesnakes out there this time of year?

Do you have have any side views of the 1st buck?
Three of us will be leaving for unit 90 in October. I am assuming you boned out the animals prior to putting the meat in the cooler. What size cooler(s) did you use?

[coyotehunter]

jomoyer2: Didn't see any rattlesnakes, but I'm sure their out there.

shortnround: Here is a view of my buck from the side, it doesn't hook as well as my buddies, but does have great mass. We're kind of newbies to the whole antelope scoring deal, thou I've shot a few in the past this is by far my best. Regardless, neither one of us cares too much on how they score, we just had a great time and fun hunt! We had two large Yeti, a smaller Yeti cooler(mainly for drink, at first) and still had to buy 2 more coolers. We would bone out the meat within an hour or less of when we shot them and also had a gamble hitch system to hang the animals. When you go I suggest you bring a clean tarp with you so when you are quartering out the animals you can put the meat on something clean til you put them in game bags and ice. Also a towel helps. Good luck to you.

Brings back memories of last fall on the wyoming prairies, one of the funnest hunts I've ever had, wish I was heading that way this year.
