Five of us just got back from Dalhart, Texas with five pronghorns. This is the 3rd pronghorn hunt I have done with Jeremy Gugelmeyer and Sagebrush Hunts.
I took mine with my 7mm-08 and a 120 gr. TTSX at 325 yards. He scored 82 1/8". The longest shot the five of us made was 450 yards. When you...
Congrats to both of you! I am still going to get up to Wyoming for a speed goat one of these years! I did get my Texas goat opening weekend.
Good Hunting,
Bob
Hey Bobby,
It is great to see you over here. Your posts could be total BS, WHICH THEY AREN'T, but I would read and enjoy them just for your photos. :mrgreen:
As always, thanks for input and insight!
Bob
Fotis-We sure enjoyed hunting with you and the kids! Hopefully, it won't be 5 years before you get back here next time.
George-You're welcome back too! I'll see if I can arrange a Texas Visa for you........
We ended up with 15 folks, 12 hunters and 3 observers. We took 13 whitetail does, 1...
Fotis,
The average is about 75 yards. I have taken them here with everything from a .223 AR (neck shots) to my 375 H&H. I usually use my 7mm-08....surprise, surprise!

HP,
Yep, this comes out to $100 per day including lodging and the skinning and quartering of game for whitetail does and unlimited hogs. We try to do a "freezer filler" hunt each year and I work hard to try to make it as affordable as possible. The outfitter gave us a heck of a deal this year...
Over the years I have found the Nosler manuals pretty much dead on with their "Most Accurate Load" recommendations. I just wish they tried a few more powders. It is still my first look when developing a new load.
My second favorite and "go to" manual is the Sierra. I like their addition of...
Fotis,
Click on the link I posted. All the details are there. The hunt is Friday, December 17th to noon Sunday, December 19th. We scheduled it the first weekend of Christmas Break for the kids.
It would be great to do some hog hunting again with you down here!
Bob
I can't believe it has been...
Fotis,
I can hook you up if you want to venture farther south around Utopia. I could fit you in our youth hunt in December. It is only $400 including lodging for both of you and you can take unlimited hogs and a total of three whitetail does. You are already a Posse Member. There is one spot...
+1 for the 55 gr. #1365 Sierra SBT. I switched to them years ago in the 22-250 (use them in my .223 AR too). If you want to use one of the plastic tipped bullets, go with the Nosler 50 gr. BT (Gary Roberson, the owner of Burnham Bros. Game Calls uses them exclusively). They are a bit stouter...
Thanks guys! We did have fun. Three of those guys were from Louisiana and had never called predators before, much less at night!
That coon was HUGE!
I will be headed to Argentina for Red Stag, wild boars, and Patagonia Foxes before I get back to Africa.
We didn't do an official Posse...
OOPS!
Another one slips through the spam filter.........
This week, I had 400+ online at the same time using the same Chinese IP address. It is a real pain to keep these jerks out.
