    The big one that never happened!

    I'll guess 83-6/8.

    Shooters ?

    Here's the buck Greenhorn posted. I attached the live photo and then the field photo for reference and the official B&C score sheet.

    New Mexico Antelope

    Mobility Impaired hunters can hunt any accessible public land within the units drawn. Private land with permission. Also, you can't move ranches the 2nd day of the hunt anymore. They did away with that rule years ago for antelope tags. It was a life saver on some bad years.

    Didn't I have a post in this thread or am I losing it?

    New Record?

    I don't understand what all the hoopla is about? Doesn't look big enough to garner this much attention. I guess people just like wide and tall bucks.

    Pronghorn guru question!

    I've talked to some biologists about that possibility and they've always told me that, not only do the does carry half the genetics, but the smaller bucks should have similar genetics to the larger bucks. I never really agreed with them on it. I think in areas with small populations that can...

    Hunt onx review?

    Ya, they were pretty helpful with me a few years ago when I called them. Spent almost 2 hours on the phone trying to get some download to work.

    The herd grows

    Mostly, if you can avoid the major pitfalls your horns should be OK. Do not boil your horns. Do not microwave your horns. Do not let them sit outside or in a garage in hot temperatures. Do not keep the horns on the horn cores with the meat under the horns. Do not pop the horns off the horn...

    Hunt onx review?

    I guess it depends on your needs. I'd need to cache multiple states. 2 states will take up 17.3 GB and take 12 hours and 53 minutes to download. If I waited to cache them or kept having to delete and re-cache different areas then I'd either forget to do it or remember to do it when I didn't have...

    Two GIANTS

    Genetics and habitat. Both bucks are probably 3 or 4 years old.

    Two GIANTS

    Kurt, I don't know if he'll end up scoring big enough to be that big, but when we were looking at him on the ground that's kind of the way I felt. :)

    Two GIANTS

    17 inches on the long horn. Short one is a little less. Overall I think your guess was pretty good. Glad you're voting in all the polls. So far I think all of your guesses have been really good. Your guess on this buck was actually closer than mine. I was trying to be conservative. ;) Even we...

    Two GIANTS

    We just killed two giants in Arizona. For anyone following along with the polls I was posting (mostly on Facebook) one of these bucks was posted in Poll #1 and the other in Poll #4. The crowds guess in Poll #1 was 89 1/8 and for Poll #4 was 86 2/8. Doc's buck in Poll #1 is well over 90 and...

    Field Judging #2

    An 8" face is a lot more consistent on mature bucks. The face will range from 7-5/8 to about 8 2/8 on 90% of the bucks. Ears will vary a lot more. Almost all ears in AZ and NM on 3+ Y/O bucks are 6-6/8"+. Even in Wyoming, the bucks we've killed have all had pretty big ears, usually around 6 6/8...

    Field Judging #2

    We usually break the length down into two measurements. 1. The distance from the base to the intersection of the prong. (we call this the "to the prong" measurement or "TP") 2. The distance from the intersection of the prong to the tip of the horn. (we call this the "past the prong" measurement...

    Field Judging #2

    For anyone still following along check out the results from the poll on buck #2. There are some really wild guesses, but overall I think the crowd sourced data nailed it again. Field Judging Poll #2 Results

    Out scouting right now. I'll post a write up when I get home in a few days.

    Haha. He was very close and cooperative so I couldn't resist.

    Field Judging #2

    Here's a link to Field Judging Poll #2 Here's a preview of the buck this go around. The last time I thought was pretty cool and a lot of people submitted votes (around 100). Hopefully this time will be fun too and get a lot of votes. Practice your field judging for the upcoming antelope...
