Very common in my region. I see them often, around. I kill one a year on average in my actual yard at my house.

Pretty hide on that WDB.
I find them "prettier" than their eastern brethren

My buddy with an epic snap shot using a vintage Stevens single shot 16ga!! I thought, no way at 40yrds……..gun up, cocked, BAM!!! I looked at him in disbelief.

Called in 3 Fox, 2 Raccoons, 1 Bobcat, and a young yote tonight. We shot the yote.
.22 CM

All those on the ranch or out and about hunting?

1 Fox, 1 Bobcat, 1 Yote on the ranch. The rest on the neighbors.

I was actually trying to get a shot on the Bobcat when the Yote came out. The cat was sneaking along the edge of the brush obscured. Then the yote ran across the pasture and took Priority. I told the red head to get on him and shoot him.

The Ginger gets it done.
Just keep him away from the ostriches

Nature hates a vacuum

Gotta brag on my dad a bit. 275 yards one round his antelope is harvested. He used his 6.5 CM with a 120 grain Nosler.

Congrats to your Dad.
I only ate antelope one and enjoyed it.

Antelope chops are excellent

My brother was with him…. This is from my phone call with dad. “I was settling in for the shot your brother was saying something, I ignored him and took the shot. After I took the shot I asked him what he wanted. He told me the range and I was only off by 25 yards! I had my done before getting out of the truck.”

Yup that’s dad.
