Pronghorn over Whitetails???
I have an opportunity to go hunt pronghorns at a preety good price. BUt I have always wanted to shoot a TRUE trophy whitetail first. Do I save my pennies and stick to my guns for the archery hunt on whitetails or to I go on what could be a really cool experince with the Prong horn. Please Help with your opinions <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> I know Decisions, decisions.

I'd do the prong horn. You have whitetails all season and there are true trophies out there to be had. I shot a pretty good one this year behind the house. I was after another I've watched since July but this one came in first. If the pronghorn opportunity is longstanding then either one would be a great hunt.
THWACK!

THWACK, It is not longstanding offer. I can only lock in this price this one time through a friend. I am leaning towards the pronghorn right now. Just for the fact it may be the only time I get to do it.

Hunt the goat - you can hunt whitetails from coast to coast, Canada to Mexico any and every year - the antelope hunt maybe the only chance you get at that opportunity. VERY tasty meat too, and with a bow a great challenge during the rut spot/stalk/decoy
