I've shot them in various areas in Wyoming and in Alberta.
Pronghorn is the cheapest western big game critter with the highest success rate there is. Plus they are lots of fun to hunt.
When you decide to go, feel free to contact me and I'll share what I know.
Just remember, the year you want to go, you'll have to apply for a tag in early spring.

That doe + buck mount is really sharp. I've always thought of mounting a doe - they are beautiful animals. Here's what you can't tell about that piece from the pic- the doe is the centerpiece. The buck is an accent. He doesnt even touch the wall. She mounts to the wall, and he is attached to her. It is really cool!!! Yesterday I hunted with some friends in union springs, and I was asked to shoot a doe. There was however, one catch. There was a doe on the property I was not allowed to kill with a double white patch on her throat. I saw her. She was gorgeous!! That's the kind of doe you have mounted. They have something special planned for her next year- they just have to kill the right buck to put her with.. My advise is make sure you have a taxidermist that is very competent before you have a doe mounted. A bad doe mount will really look like a turd. There is no rack on top of her head to draw your eyes away from the problems....

It's actually a common gallinule.
It makes a cool conversation piece. Been wanting me a Gallinule. Cool Mount.

My best four. That one on the right is incredibly unique. I got pictures of one almost identical in st. Clair county 2 years ago. Any chance he was killed close to lincoln

The one on the right was actually killed in Illinois. All the rest are Alabama deer. I wish I could find a trail cam pic of him. Where that beam buckles he actually had 4 kickers splinter out of it. At least ten inches worth. He was cool looking. Would like to get what he has broken off fixed but probably won't ever get around to it. Where did you hunt at in Illinois? I've been contemplating a paid hunt up north.
