Wyoming Pronghorn 2007 - Stanosheck's Big Game Adventures

My Dad and I guided my uncle on a BLM and public walk in hunt in Wyoming for Pronghorn Antelope in 2007. The tough part of the hunt was field judging the buck. We only like to take a mature buck that we feel will score over 80 B&C and we got on him at 9 yards I told my uncle not to shoot as the angle I had made him look smaller than 80". After 2 hours of looking at him with the 60X Leica spotting scope I decided 81" and my Dad decided 82" - Either way he was a shooter so once he got back in range my unlce put him in the dirt.

Nice video! If you don't mind sharing, what unit in Wyoming did this hunt take place in?

@nmelkhunter1

I can go as far as telling you that it is in the famed Carbon County. Obviously I would not want to widey post what units we apply for to draw tags as it would quickly explode to where my chances of a tag are worse than the slim odds I already have. Good Hunting to you!

@stanoman1 Fair enough! I live in New Mexico and antelope tags are hard to come by. I currenly subscribe to Eastman's Hunting Journal and I have used their MRS to pick a unit that I am going to hunt antelope in Wyoming. I am leaning towards a unit with a good walk in area since I feel there will probably be less pressure and I like to walk and glass instead riding an ATV or driving a truck. Thanks again.

@nmelkhunter1

Here is what I can do for you. If you get Eastmans you will see the buck I shot last year in that same unit. At the bottom in the "about the author" section you will see my website - where you can find my email. Email me and I will tell you the 2 units we hunt. Hunter to hunter - Don't spread the word OK. :)

@stanoman1 I couldn't find the Eastman's with your info.I typically keep the MRS section and get rid of the rest of the magazine after six months. I did look at the unit I have been considering hunting in and it is in the same county you mentioned. Odds are it is one of the two units you have in mind.
