Thanks Wyoming! You have a great western state. Every trip there is good.
... and a guy can sure look over a LOT of antelope to find one bigger than 12 inches.

Great looking goat!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you have any idea of score on that one?? Hope to find lone like that as well Congrats!!!

Thanks guys. I will peel the skin off and score him tomorrow.
He has the "wide flare" look that makes him look bigger than he probably is. The longest horn is about 14 1/2 inches.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-15-09 AT 08:51AM (MST)[p]For those that asked, here is some goat scoring information.

This guy scored about 75 and had 14 1/2 inch horns. Nice and high but notice the lack of any curl at the tip of the horn which would have added inches to the overall length. I have larger scoring antelope that do not look as good when you first see them.
The wide spread and flared out 4"+ prongs make him look neat and initially show more black when the buck is first seen in the field.
The ivory tipped horns I think are a sign of an older buck.
Judging antelope on the hoof definitely is a challenge.

Yep, I'd shoot him again. I love the wide open country they live in. He provided a great trip, good memories and mighty fine eating
