It is always great when one of your hunters are successfull on their first Antelope Hunt.                                                      Gene was lucky enough to draw a Silvies #1 Lope Tag for 2009.

Hi! Frank aka Bwana Bubba
 
“We enjoyed a successful hunt in the Silvies unit.  It is tough to get closer than 400 yards of the herds in the flat lands without spooking them so we put the sneak on them and dialed in around 200 yards.  Attached is my first lope ever.
 
Thanks for the waypoints.  We spotted pronghorns in the area before we got to the marked locations and started sneaking and spooking the lopes.  Found out we only you get one chance and then the lopes vanished for the day.”
