COOSEFAN Report post Posted August 10, 2007 I don't know the exact dates, but it's the first couple weeks of October. I purchased this hunt at the AES banquet auction last year and had to postpone the hunt because of my Alaska trip, so I really had my fingers crossed that I would draw this year and not have to wait till next year! The draw odds are somewhere around 45% so I had a good chance of drawing anyways. I'll be on a closed ranch for 5 days and i don't think I will be seein' any 80" type bucks, but was told that a mid 70" type buck is huge........so because they have smaller bucks, I'm takin' the muzzeloader instead of the rifle to make it a little more fun and challenging.......the country is flat with no trees at all, so archery is out of the question. I'm excited! Antelope are almost as purdy as Coues Thanks, JIM> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

COOSEFAN Report post Posted August 10, 2007 He Shorty......Yeah, I'll probably have to rely on you for scouting.......I WANT nothing less than 95" and I want it NO LESS than 200 yrds from the road. I don't wanna have to hike too far and I want to use the Rhino for a nice solid rest......so make it happen! Just kidding, I'll take your leftovers Hey Tony, I think I'll be just south of the Canadian border in the town of Turner, and i think that is in Hill County or Blaine County.......kinda central on the northern border. I was lookin' at the map earlier and it's gonna be a LONG drive for a little 'Loper! I might fly instead! JIM> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hunted 'lopes north of Miles City about 15 years ago, and the terrain was like a moonscape. Though it was pretty in its own sort of way, it was ugly at the same time. -TONY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
