One thing I just remebered is that when we drew the DFG had an orientation meeting up in McArthur that you could attend. It was a very informative meeting and they also had all the area topo maps displayed with areas that contained goats highlighted. This helped us a lot.

Hntrjohn,
Congratulations to you and your wife. I hunted that area last year and had a blast. You will see a lot of antelope and I&#39;m sure your wife will get a nice one. There are several people on this page with some great info on the Likely Tables area and I&#39;m sure they will pass on that info to you like they did for me.
Good luck!
Brad

Congratulations! And with this new preference point system, you&#39;ll probably get a tag next year, too! I should have been making my wife buy hunting licenses and Antelope and Sheep tags!

Came back yesterday from Alturas from doing a little scouting. Saw a few nice lopes. Now I am just going to have to get my wife withen 200 yards from them

I would like to thank everybody who gave me great tips and area&#39;s to start looking for the lopes.

There was some very great ones out there, and a few are still out there.

The wife and I did a few stalks that got blown before we got her close enough for a conformable shot. She did shoot at one at 200 yards on the last evening and she could not believe she missed because everything looked good before the shot rang out. I just thought she blew it and told her we will find another one.

While that herd was going over the hill we say a coyote. She told me to kill it. It was probably 300 yards out, and I held dead on it. The bullet hit quite a bit high. While the coyote was still confused on which way to go I shot again, holding right on it. Same thing it hit high.

Needless to say, after that I took a good look at the gun and noticed the scope had a decent dent in it. Some were along the way the scope got hit and went off, a lot. When I got it home, on a 2 foot by 2 target, the bullet did not even get on the paper.

The wife and I had a lot of fun during the hunt together, and that is important. And it is called hunting, not shooting.
