Opening day antelope

Shot this lope opening morning (8/22/10). Hit the left lung and blew out the right shoulder using a 270 Weatherby Mag with 130 gr nosler ballistic tip handloads. Sorry for all the blood.

stink-a-lopes?

YOU eat sagebrush and run around in that heat at 60mph and tell me what you smell !!?

I love watching a first timer field dress one (seems I turned green with my first one too)

remember - lopey meat is toxic. Send it all to me for proper disposal

BTW. NICE one !

I'm not very experienced at field judging antelope, but I can tell this one looks big. Glad you had a good hunt.

for a minute there I thought the Nevada heat must have gotten to you

lopey meat is about the only game meat we eat here.
