John's Antelope hunt

For those of you that are a little squeamish these are hunting pictures so you might want to skip over this post.

With that said these are the pictures from John's hunting trip for Wyoming Antelope.

John My dad and my brother Glen left Saturday and drove all day to get up to the area John was hunting. John has been so excited for this hunt since way before he drew the tag!! He has been gearing up for the last couple of months trying to get prepared for this hunt. South Pass City

Sorry these pictures are posted backwards so here they are packed up ready to leave after the hunt. Nice set up huh!

John and Glen skinning the Antelope. Dad had the great idea of using the 4-wheeler ramps to hang it up seeing as how there are a lack of trees in the area.

John's 1st Antelope! Way to go Babe!!!

John was able to get these pictures by putting the camera up to the spotting scope! So this Antelope is really far away.

Camp way down there!!

John said they saw tons of Antelope everywhere he just had to weed through them to find the best one.

I grow up not to far from where John was hunting so for my dad and brother this was also a trip down memory lane! These next photos are more nostalgic photos than anything else.

The drag line-on the mine where my dad worked.

I guess dad was like a puppy dog with his head hanging out of the window while they were in and around where I grew up. Dad was so excited to see everything again. It has been a long time since any of us have been back to see.

This drum-roll please..... was the house I grew up in. Green River Wyoming is where I lived from when I was 2 years old until I was 13 years old.

The house really hasn't changes much in the past 17 years since I lived there. Wow 17 years!! The colors are still pretty much the same it still has the same fence and shed!! There were no trees in the front and the Garage was not a garage but a big family room!

These windmills were not there but man it only make sense seeing has how there are always hurricane force winds blowing there!!

Well that is probably more info than anyone needed but hey it's my Blog!

Now back to the hunt as you can see the Hunt was successful! I think he was disappointed that he shot it on opening morning and was done! All that prep work and anticipation was over! At least he has another hunt coming up next month!!
