Wyoming antelope hunting

[Ocurtis]

I had a couple antelope tags that I got the opportunity to fill Saturday. I didn't get any pictures of the animals but was able to make sure the 30-06 works before elk season! Dropped one at 100 yards, one at 275 yards, and my brother took his with a perfect neck shot at 325 yards. The Barnes 168 grain did impressive work on all three, none of them even flinched. What was more impressive to me was that they actually ruin less meat then I had thought. My 100 yard shot exited through the front shoulder. It did give about a 3" exit wound. However, the all copper bullet left no fragments and no bloodshot meat around the hole.

Picture is of tonight's antelope spaghetti with zucchini noodles!

Nice work brother! I've never been one to photograph my conquests either. I never cared if others saw them but plan to in the future. It's the time in the field and the memories with your brother that matter most. Tasty meals......cheers!

I thought about it. But so often I'm in the moment and hate to waste it looking through a camera lense. It was an incredible trip and time.

I will take pictures of my elk trip, whether I get my animal or not. The trip will be a success regardless as I will be in Gods country

Spaghetti looks great! Congrats on the kills too. iPhones take better pics than any camera I've owned, and it's always in my pocket so I take pics so I can relive the trip. Love seeing others pics too.

Congrats on the hunt. My wife would love those noodles, anything to get her to eat the meat.
