Antelope question

ok i admit it, i shot a rage thru my antelope about 6 inches into the ground on the other side with a 60 lb bow at 20 yds. antelope are smaller than deer, you wont have a issue either way. im not a mechanical fan, but i like the flight with them if you looking at possibly a 45 yd shot in wind. for the record i use slick tricks on elk. not sure what im gonna use on whitetails or mulies yet.

I shoot mechanicals at whitetail and have never had an issue. I mostly do that because exactly what you said \"I like the flight with them.\"
I will shoot either Shuttle T\'s or G5 montecs during my elk hunt and most likely during my mulie hunt (only because I convinced myself a mechanical wont be enough)

So it occurred to me that I had no idea what I wanted to shoot at antelope.
My unit is fairly flat and often windy. Also I have a feeling it\'ll be a longer shot.


I will most likely shoot my T3\'s, but I was very interested in what you all shot. :dance2:
 
Shoot em with whatever you like best. They ain\'t very tough and the fact that they can\'t get out of sight when well hit is certainly a factor. Mechs don\'t penetrate as well as Fixed but its not an issue with an animal you can watch for a mile after he\'s hit. I personally don\'t like switching BH\'s for anything so I use my Shuttle T\'s for everyting except turkey but I wouldn\'t hesitate to use the T3s on lopes. Good luck!
