Movie review…Western Antelope Safari DVD
Posted by dihardhunter on May 8, 2008

Well, I queued up the Eastman’s Western Antelope Safari DVD on my Netflix subscription and watched that yesterday. The DVD has been around for several years, but I had never seen an exclusively pronghorn antelope hunting movie. I would say it was worth the time to watch! A good bit of the action was filmed on public land, with a few more hunts coming on outfitted land and landowner permit land in New Mexico. One of the New Mexico bucks is a 15″ MASSIVE lope with 6-7″ cutters, once in a lifetime trophy and the biggest antelope I’ve ever seen harvested on DVD or TV shows alike. In one segment, they show techniques for calling to rutting pronghorns, something I had heard about but never seen demonstrated. All the kills were made with a rifle, although they do stalk some pronghorns with archery equipment but decide not to try a shot. For anyone looking into a DIY antelope hunt, I would recommend getting your hands on this DVD, much of the action is filmed in Wyoming…where I went for my 2007 DIY mulie/pronghorn hunt and found their advice to be spot-on. Good stalking tips too. You can link to the Eastman’s shopping website and purchase a copy or Netflix also carries the DVD…enjoy!
