Antelope
Hunt PG685
NEW MEXICO
25,000 PRIVATE ACRES
This had been our premier pronghorn hunt until the
drought of 2011. Last fall in 2013 they only took 2 bucks off the 25,000
private acres, both scoring in the mid-70’s. In 2012 they took 4 bucks
off the property, but quality was down. In 2011 HCU’s Cliff Graham and
Bob Wodzisz were on this hunt. Bob did take a buck grossing 82 inches,
but the others were not the caliber of bucks normally taken on this
hunt.
In 2010 before the drought, 3 of the 4 bucks taken had
16-inch horns and grossed 80 inches or better. In 2009, 3 of the 4 bucks
taken gross scored over the Boone and Crockett minimum of 82 points and
the best grossed 87 with 2 more at 85. In 2008 all 4 bucks grossed over
82 with the best coming in at 87 and 86 inches.
The outfitter is expecting the ranch to improve with
positive weather conditions and the genetics are definitely superb, but
until then the price will continue to be down from $4,000 to $3,000
guided 1x1 for this 2-day hunt that includes nice ranch house
accommodations, home cooked meals and airport pickup in
