    My Bitter Sweet Wyoming Antelope

    TJ - Nice talking to you about this antelope hunt when I saw you up on the elk hunt. My nephew did not get an elk, ended up being a tougher hunt than previous years......Hope your archery elk hunt went well. You still ended up with a good antelope. Like you said, kind of bitter sweet......

    Blackpowder Load ?

    Thanks for the input. I am going to try the 275 and see what happens. I am hoping that I can shoot a bit farther without too much drop.

    Blackpowder Load ?

    It has been quite a few years since I hunted the HAM hunt. As I am getting ready for this year's hunt, I am thinking of changing up the load and bullets that I use. I have a T/C New Englander 50 Cal and in year's past, the load I use is 90 grains of Pyrodex with a 355 grain Prelubricated Maxi-Hunter. This has been the best shooting load out of this gun. I have also shot a 370 grain Maxi-Balls with good results. I killed a javelina a few years back using this load with a 355 grain Maxi-Hunter. Here is my question - I need to buy more bullets and shoot a bit before the hunt. It looks like the Maxi-Hunter now comes in 350 grains and 275 grains. Do you guys think a 275 grain Maxi-Hunter is adequate for javelina? If so, do you think I can get away with 80 grains of powder? I know I will have to experiment a bit just wondering what you guys think. I use open sights and am good to about 80 yards. I just don't want to have to adjust sights and may just stick with the 350 grain........thanks.

    What a great hunt - congrats to your daughter!
  18. Looking to sell my 1994 Toyota DX 4x4. It is the Xtra Cab model with a V6 and 5 speed manual. I am the original owner and the truck has 170,600 miles. The truck has been used for hunting and has been well maintained. Over all very solid. The paint and interior is pretty good. Except for the fiberglass shell, hood and top of the cab - all has faded somewhat and can be seen in the pictures. AC is cold and the heat is hot. 4x4 works great, engine is strong. Has never been used for towing. Front seats have always been covered. No accidents. Timing belt has been replaced once. The good - All replaced within the last two years - New front axles, shocks, radiator and hoses and heater hoses. Tires are two years old (31.5 x 15 Yokohomas). The idler arm and pitman arm were replaced 2 years ago. Front brake pads were also replaced 2 years ago. One year ago, spark plugs and wires were replaced, front wheel bearings were repacked, and charcoal canister (emissions) was replaced. Rear axle seals have just been replaced and new rear brake pads installed. The bad - Shell and hood could be painted. Rest of the paint is great. The power steering pump is leaking and should be rebuilt, not difficult to do. I add fluid every 4- 5 weeks. Very small oil leak. The cold idle is a little fast - around 1300 rpms. But, once it warms up, runs at 800 rpms. The driver's side door handle is loose. Still works fine, but may need to be replaced in the future. Truck is a little dirty in the pictures........
  19. Price has been reduced to $6000.

  24. Spending 5 days on an antelope hunt is special, but when your daughter has the tag, it is even better. When a college student gives up opening wekend of the football season and heads out on a hunt, we have to count our blessings. Heading out from NAU in the rain was not ideal, but come opening day, the weather cleared and the hunt began. Unfotunenately, opening morning was uneventful. The afternoon brought in a major raing storm and we headed back to camp early. We did see a nice Golden Eagle eating a rabbit. Saturday morning things turned around and we stalked 4 different bucks. Two were the bucks that would make your jaw drop and make you say wow! No shots. Lesson learned - you can not stalk antelope when your only cover is cactus. Crawling was not successful either. Walking back to the truck, we jumped another great buck and two does, he stopped and she had an off hand shot at his neck, she did not take it. She was worried about hitting the does. After covering 4 plus miles that morning, lunch tasted really good. Saturday afternoon brought on two shots at 300 yards. A nice buck stood broadside. Traveling with 4 does. The wind was really bad and I clearly saw the misses. one short and one to the left. Shortly after the misses, we spotted another nice buck and 7 does. Another blown stalk. We thought we may get to him as he bedded twice. But no such luck. Sunday morning we spotted a nice heard and the heard buck was a good one. This time we set up by some cacti and waited. They worked right towards us and everything was coming together. The does lead the way and the buck followed. He stopped at 260 yards and started digging. My daughter was on a stool and rested on the tripod. I thought it was a for sure thing. Well, another miss and off they went. About an hout later, spotted another nice heard buck. And once again, we were busted as we moved in........Sunday afternoon we settled in and glassed a nice buck. Watched him bed and walked out in the dark. We did not spook him and the does. Monday morning we walked in early and thought we would get there before they got up. Well, no such luck and they were already feeding. They were feeding away from us but when the buck was forced to chase off a coyote, we closed the distance. This coyote was very persistant and kept trying to get to the does. Three more coyotes moved in and this buck was working hard. The coyotes finally gave up and as the buck walked back to the does, my daughter had a 250 yard shot. He stopped and she shot - another miss high. She shot again and the shot went left into the dirt. Needless to say, she was extreemely dissapointed. As we sat there we did not say too much to each other. I told her it was ok and we should wait it out and see what happens. About 30 minutes later, I glass her buck. He was only about 180 yards when I spotted him and he filled the entire field of my 16s. He looked huge. As he closed to 165, she pulled the trigger and down he went. She was so happy and thankful. We both were. She shot him at 8:00am. The truck was almost 2 miles away. The next 2 and half hours was tough, but I am pretty sure we were smiling and talking the whole time.
