The top one is a deceiving one also. He scores just shy of 83 inches. Picture doesn't do him justice.

Here's two of three I have on the wall. The one on the left was one I shot my very first year hunting when I was 14yrs. Old. Back then there was no such thing as a priority system, just luck of the draw. He is 15 3/8 long and scores 75 and change. The one on the right well he just had to die cause he was funky. My last one scored right at 80". I took a friend out 2yrs after I shot my 80" and he shot a 83" and change pronghorn. They are a tough animal to hunt and to judge as well.

You do not have to live in Alberta to hunt or apply for pronghorn. The draw system is full of non residents as it is the only place in Canada where a non resident can apply.
With the number of new applicants entering the draw every year exceeding those getting drawn, I will go so far as saying that you will never get drawn as a new applicant. Ever.
Welcome to Alberta.

Lol, he looks rough for sure. I took the pic quite a few years ago, as I was spraying. I kept working closer and closer to him, but he kept moving away. Then I stopped and darned if he didn't walk up to me. It was spring and I think he was blowing out his winter coat.....

Pretty tough to get clear pictures when it's 36*c out side and there is some distance, but it's not to hard to tell with this one.

No horns but the speed goats are getting closer. This pic was recently taken less than an hour from Edmonton.

Just curious if any of these pics are in zones 104, 106 or 112? I have a archery draw tag there and if some one could point me in the right direction...? lol
All jokes aside, some awesome animals in this thread. Can't wait for September!

Mine is, but I also have an archery tag....so the directions I will not share! Lol. I've done two scouting trips so far, one of which was before I was even drawn. There are good numbers of antelope down there and you shouldn't have a tough time finding one.
