RE: sleeping antelope(pics)
They smell strongly of sage because that's what they eat.This odour is in the hide so it disappears when the animal is skinned.Their eye sightis rated like sheep at around 14x.Normally they don't miss a thing visually speaking and spot you long before your in range.They can be tricked by flagging them with a white hanky while hiding behind a knoll or stalked walking behind a plywood cutout of a horse or cow.Archery guys hide behind a young buck decoy and call them in.[not a healthy idea in gun season]The meat is filling[dense] like mt. sheep and I usually bone everthing and get it made into pepperoni sticks......... [1st one I've caught napping] They will not jump a fence but slide under the bottom strand at full spead like a baseball player going for homeplate.They can run at 30-40MPH all day and bursts of spead to 60 MPH clocked by my truck.Only the cheetah can beat one at 70 MPH........Harold
