My buddy got an antelope!

[FrontierGander]

He got this one in eastern colorado Sept 29th.

Tc renegade 54cal with 90gr pyrodex select, .018 patch and .530" round ball, 150 yard, single shot that went through the heart. In the video he states that the ball did not exit, But it in fact, did exit as you can see when he lifts the antelope up.

They're pretty animals but they stink worse than anything I've ever encountered. That a nice buck, congrats to your buddy.

Depends. You'll find stories from the mountain men that was their last choice for food. We usually used it all for jerky. Right amount of seasonings would make it good.

Where I come from we call jerky fine eating….

Congratulations to your buddy! We love antelope...in warmer temps process it quickly and get it on ice and the meat is great.

My cousin killed one last Fall during rifle season. A 3 year wait as a non-resident.

First antelope trip I took was in 1995. Skip 4 years until 1999 and I went EVERY year until 2020. So 21 years of hunting them and the ONLY bad ones I ever had were gut shot goats by other folks. Im safe in saying Ive been elbows deep in well north of 200 antelope and the only bad ones were the shooters fault. Ive took as many as 14 hunters at a time with me and with an average of 3 tags each, well you do the math. A clean killed animal, processed properly, if you dont like antelope, then you dont eat meat. PERIOD.
