My son is the hunter in that photo with his buck. He watched it, in range, for over an hour before deciding to shoot it. He was one lucky antelope hunter this year, as he drew both a California pronghorn tag, as well as one in Nevada. We made it one long pronghorn hunt. We hunted in California first, where he took this buck on the 4th day of the season. He was holding out for a bigger buck, but finally decided that he can kill a bigger buck in the future, but might never kill a more unusual pronghorn. He's got a ton of points for antelope in Arizona, Wyoming, and Oregon, so he knows he's going to go on more good pronghorn hunts.

After this hunt, we went over to Nevada, where we found tough hunting. He did manage to kill a 14 1/2" buck over there on the 3rd evening, but it was the only decent buck we saw in our time there. We forgot to take any pictures of that buck, as he shot it almost at quitting time, and we were in a big hurry to get on the road, as he'd gotten a call that he had to get back to work. If it hadn't been for his job (deckhand on a San Diego long range boat at the time) we'd have passed the buck and kept hunting. As it was, we were glad to get a buck as nice as he shot.

All in all, it was a good trip that we enjoyed togehter. I can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for us.

Here's the buck I took with my bow in Idaho this year with an unlimited tag. He's 15 1/4 long.
