Take The Shot? Primitive Pronghorn
A young hunter stalks within easy range of a big antelope, but the buck is facing him and he’s shooting a 1700s-era patched round ball. Should he take the shot?

I’ve been addicted to archery pronghorn hunting for 25 years, and my favorite method is duping a buck with a decoy.
The does turned and resumed their march in our direction. The buck stopped broadside at 223 yards and the rifle thundered. The wallop of the bullet exploding the heart was clear, and after taking a few steps the giant tumbled to the ground.
When it comes to setting your ground blind, there’s a lot to consider, and I see lots of ground-blind goers foil their waterhole plans with poor placement.
You’ve arrived for your hunt and are eager to go check your water sources. This is what to look for.
