Pretty nice goat Ernie !


What part of the state do you live in?
I have lived in Spur, Panhandle, and Lubbock in the past, and my wife grew up in the Houston area.
Antelope are so unique, and their demeanor can be odd or funny-Really cool animals. They are not my favorite wild game to eat though.
Elk still gets the nod there.


I live in East Texas near Tyler. Antelope and axis are a tie with me, but elk is on top I guess. Only thing is I’ve only hunted them once and only killed one. Really enjoyed hunting antelope though.


When you are not bow hunting, what handguns do you hunt with?


I have several Rugers in .44 mag and a .41 Mag as well as a .45 Colt. but my newest acquisitions are a Bisley Hunter and a FA model 83 , both in .44 magnum. Long story, but I stopped bowhunting a couple years ago, had long term covid and just now getting back to handgun hunting. In years past I used a Ruger Super Redhawk in .44 and a TC Contender in .375 Win as well as an Encore in .260 Rem. I still have the .375 but the others have gone down the road. I mostly hunt deer and hogs and I’m looking forward to some hog hunting in the near future.
