I am actually more interested in pics of the speed goats. I have one on the wall that missed B&C minimums by 1/4" green (and I am not a trophy hunter)

From spring to mid-summer, this place is crawling with antelope. They are amazing critters in how fast they run and the crazy eyesight/vision. They can see you, and watch you before you can glass them with binoculars. Some close to our house get use to us and won't run until we are about 100 yds. The young'ns are about the size of a dog and can run almost as fast as adults VERY early on.

Maybe you know how to prepare antelope, but the one's I've had were not that great...gamey and stringy. They make a nice mount though!

I'll get a picture today. Plan on going out to pop some Jackrabbits later.

EDIT: Ok, got back and here is a couple of pictures of the rifle holder. It is a Ram clamp attached to a "Quick Fist" made in USA gizmo for holding "stuff"...rifles, yard tools, crow bars...I got it in the gun section of our Sportsman Warehouse. Works GREAT.

Only saw 2 Jack Rabbits, no coyotes and about 10 antelope. 43 miles on the PK and the wrench maintenance minder came on.

This is the simplest, easy access set up I have seen.
Couple questions:
Do you have anything on the floor to hold the stock?
Does the gun bounce around over rough terrain?

Right now I have nothing on the floor, but I'm still thinking on that one...but amazingly, on a 50 mile run yesterday, through all kinds of stuff, the AR didn't move at all. The little bit of leeway on the rubber barrel mount allowed the butt to stay put. I would still like to have something simple on the floor...I'll share it if I find something...

The best part of that barrel gripper is how fast you can release the strap and get the rifle into action...

If you can find one (try Google and / or Swiss Army Vehicles in Fayetteville, AR at www.pinzgauer.com ) the floor butt ring that is standard in a Pinzgauer (710M / 712M models) would be perfect. I am willing to bet they have one or two laying around.

Thanks for the info. I have a simple idea for the floor/stock security. I'll share after I play around a bit.

Yes, they are amazingly fast creatures and can haul ass from about 3 hours old. They are both wary and curious and it is the latter that usually gets them.

I think much of the taste has to do with what they eat. I was told the same thing you told me so with limited space available (was also hauling an elk home) I donated about half the meat. The area where I was hunting has a lot of alfalfa fields and the taste was quite good despite this one being old. I've had whitetail deer that was much worse.

I agree, very surprised with the taste of the antelope we have taken. The crops consist of winter wheat, alfalfa and sage. Much better than the whitetail and mule deer from same area.
