Default RE: sleeping antelope(pics)

They're funny like Bighorn Sheep in the way that you can be sneaky [flat as a snake's belly in a wagon rut]one time and have the whole herd eyeballing you from a mile or more away and the next time you shoot one at 25 yards and have the survivors stand there or walk right up to you while gutting the first.Strange things sometimes happen.I was pushing a 1/4 section one time for moosefor a buddy and had a mulie doe tag on me .So I told my partner not to leave his stand if he heard me shoot that I was just planting a doe.Part way through the push I shot a big doe, then jumped a moose that he shot.Dragged my doe over to the moose and began the knife work.I'll be darned if 20min later a group of mulies came within 50 yards of the kill site and stood there while another one hit the turf.Buddy shot his deer using the dead moose for a rest.We where out of tags by 0800 opening morning..........never happened since.....Harold
