Anyone hunting Pronghorn this year?

I watched a video many years ago, where the guide put gunny sack cloth over him and his hunter and slowly walked into range of the target buck, who watched them approach, but wasn't alarmed, as the cloth broke up their human outlines. I thought that was a pretty good trick. Still need to try it myself.

I flagged my daughter's buck with a white game bag this year to get into a better shooting position. She's a small 12yo and couldn't get a good shot due to terrain and sage brush. I took out a white game bag, held it up around my head and we inched ourselves to a good shooting spot. He buck was unbothered, kept feeding and looking at us, back to feeding.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'm happy to look like a clown with a game bag wrapped around my head while my daughter shoots a buck!
 
Congratulations that is a pair of beauty's, well done :D
Thanks. I just rough scored them at 78 on the left and 80 4/8 on the right. They are so deceiving and hard to judge on the hoof especially at distance. Neither of us really care about score but wanted good looking respectable antelope after waiting so long to get drawn.
