Five antelope, seven days

I made my way to @Pucky Freak and together we made the approach. After about 30 minutes we see the first doe walking from left to right. We sat down and I readied my rifle. He ranges her at 200 yards. Pretty soon another doe is following, then two more. I practice my aim from a seated shooting position, and feel pretty comfortable. We are waiting for a buck, as we know there are a couple in the group. Sure enough, antelope number 5 is a mature buck. He steps into the clear and stops broadside. I steady my aim and fire. The buck jumps, takes a few steps and turns straight away. He stands there for several minutes looking sick. Finally he turns again and I give another shot. Still standing. Third shot and he stumbles and tips over backwards. Not the one shot I was hoping for, but he's down and we celebrate with some pictures, ans then get to work.View attachment 347079View attachment 347081View attachment 347083View attachment 347084

Big thanks to @Pucky Freak for all the help on this one! Back to his unit for the last day of the season tomorrow.
Congrats on the dandy of a buck.
