Pine Donkey Report post Posted August 10, 2010 I have my first goat tag ever, and am trying to refine my field judging. Can some of you who are experienced post a size to this buck. Thanks, Robert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
izquik72 Report post Posted August 10, 2010 Need more photos to judge. Head on and side profile would be able to give you a decent idea. Length of horn Length of prong 4 Mass measurments = score The above photo is very clear but you cant accurately judge any of those charcteristics. RR - That is great photo especially with it being windy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Rabbit Report post Posted August 10, 2010 Pine Donkey, The best to learn how to judge antelope would be Grimmetts video "Size is Everything" Those antelope moved to the back side of the ridge, so that is the best photo of the buck I got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pine Donkey Report post Posted August 10, 2010 Thanks Red Rabbit. I have watched that video a few times now, and have committed much of it to memory. I am now trying to practice my judging skills, but the opportunities to look at an animal, make an estimate, then get an actual number are pretty limited. I did find great value in another post of "largest antelope". I have also been looking at live goats every chance I get. I will be back in the mountains this weekend pearched behind a tripod. Thanks for putting up another of your beautiful pictures, I always enjoy them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
