Ran across this youtube video that is pretty exciting, I don't think it can get any closer. Back from our antelope hunt, maybe more on that later.

Antelope hunting 2010
Great trip with temps as cold as we've experienced in the 5 years we've been doing this camp. Temps dipped to close to 0 and opening morning at 5am was 9 degrees. Thank god for a pop up trailer with a furnace, sorry guys in the wall tent with a Mr. Heater :-).
I took 2 does, RS a doe, JG a buck and doe, the H's each bagged a doe or 2 as well.
