Texas Pronghorns!
Five of us just got back from Dalhart, Texas with five pronghorns. This is the 3rd pronghorn hunt I have done with Jeremy Gugelmeyer and Sagebrush Hunts.

I took mine with my 7mm-08 and a 120 gr. TTSX at 325 yards. He scored 82 1/8"

My speed goat.




We were hunting on Jeremy's Buffalo Springs Ranch and several surrounding ranches. We had access to 22,000 acres. Texas10x and amigo will tell you that they feel like they walked all of it!

The ranch was once part of the famous XIT ranch, which at one time was the largest fenced ranch in the world at 3,000,000 acres. Jeremy and Sara's ranch is 9,000 and has the original XIT headquarters on their ranch just down from their house.

This is the old XIT headquarters.

Really nice goats Bob. I just love hunting those critters. It looks to me like getting within 400 yds. in that country would be pretty hard. Congradulations on a successful hunt.

Thanks guys!

Mike, you are correct. The longest shot the five of us made was 450 yards with a 270 WSM.

Good looking goats! I think one of the biggest antelope I have ever seen was just outside Dumas. There are some really nice ones in the panhandle area. Makes me want to get up that way.

Hey Guille,

I am glad you made it up here. I think Bill is going to just move to Argentina one of these days! I am still trying to get down there.

Good Hunting,

Bob

Nice antelope Bob!

A good read is "6000 Miles of Fence" by the U. of Texas press. Tells the story of the XIT.
