Judging antelope

Please excuse the neophyte question but since I'm getting ready for my 1st antelope hunt and have never even seen one in the wild (not a bunch in the mountains of eastern Ky), any suggestions on field judging a shooter/trophy/dink?

Thanks.

Judging antelope

Check this post https://www.biggamehunt.net/node/12524 The fellow that responded to my antelope judgment question there seemed quite solid in his reply. He also posted his e-mail address there.

Hunting Tip: Be Careful Where You Cut!

We all take every precaution when we are hunting and harvesting our animal. Well, what about after the animal is down? Do we know what has happened to that animal over it's lifetime? The following is an example of why we should be careful when we cut. 2 years ago, my father shot a nice 8 point on opening morning of the rifle season in Vermont. It was a beautiful, 2 1/2 year old deer, looked really healthy and moved normally. When my father went to skin it for...
