Ok here ya go guys!!! I had a fun hunt but my hell for the rain/snow and mud!! Most of you guys know what Wyoming's two track road do when they get a substantial amount of precipitation, needless to say I made it count even though I had to stay on a couple county roads and hike my butt off. I spent most of Wednesday looking over goats and trying to find some access into some other country but couldn't for the mud, almost got stuck in one spot on a county road, I couldn't keep it on the road even in 4x4. I seen close to 100 bucks between Wednesday and Thursday, I drove by the buck I shot about 4 separate times and every time I had to stop and look at him. I'm not hell bent on score but for some reason he just didn't look very big at all, finally Friday morning I got a real good look at him and decided he was better than I thought previous. They were ruttin harder than I've seen antelope before and on several occasions I was able to get with 50-80yards of them using a Montana Decoy(Buck Antelope). So I parked the truck under a hill and made sure to skyline myself going over the top with that decoy in hand, when I topped the ridge he was 330yds but he spun around and came running right at me at 100yds I thought he was gonna stop but nope! He kept coming and at about 50yds I turned the power down on my scope and he seen the movement and came to complete stop broadsided, nothing else needs to be said!! Boom and drop right there! Man alive it was the most intense 10 seconds I've had in a while, I thought he was gonna come eat my lunch!! Hope you guys enjoy the pics and story!
