Default RE: bow hunting antelope

That is going to be tough unless you are going on a guided/outfitted hunt or know where the goats hang out. A weekend is not much time for them to get used to a blind and they may not come close to it for a week or so. If you know the landowner I would ship the blind out UPS and have him set it up where they are watering or crossing fences a couple weeks before you get there. I would plan on one with a decoy and two at the water hole. They are really funny about the decoys, they are going to charge right in or run the other direction. Depends on the weekend you are there. I have had some success with a decoy but have had better luck with spot and stalk and water holes. The decoy, IMO, is the least reliable way to hunt them. I think if three of you plan on getting one goat between you would be more realistic with only a weekend to hunt.
