Wherever you are must be pretty generous with landowner tags. Nice.

I've given up trying to draw Colorado Pronghorn tags. Preference point creep is just ridiculous. Hunting once every 4-7 years as a resident is fairly normal unless you care to pay for landowner tags.

Being close to Wyoming, where a non res can buy a couple doe tags for less than Colorado resident tags saves the day for many of us. I really prefer a well taken care of Pronghorn over deer or elk. I bowhunt most of my speed goats over water.

I'm currently sitting out back of the house watching one of my remote deer hidey holes going up in flames the past couple days. Don't have a tag this year for deer either. Hopefully I can skewer a bull or cow next month.

After seeing what the 90tnt does on rabbits even with a reduced loadI'm switching to either 123eld or 140sst for the antelope. I also got permission to cross the fence line today.

Glad you're switching bullets mel. That bullet is just not made for that kind of work.

i was hoping that at the further range and reduced velocity to start with the bullet wouldnt be as explosive but after popping that rabbit at range proved otherwise , last night was a bust i headed out and as i aproached my spot i noticed the antelope were already there , i couldnt get inside 600 or so yards of them without being spotted so i just turned around and came home instead of trying and spooking them for a second day in a row
