Gentlemen,

Looking for a bright spot in my all things hunting this year, after returning from a dismal Iowa whitetail hunt, I was thinking that at least the mounting of my Wyoming (Buffalo) antelope from last year worked out nicely. My wife and I have been engaged in a major house renovation project which included my clearing everything out of my den a while back so though I received the mount in mid-October it wasn't until a couple weeks ago that my first little "speed goat" was pulled out of the box and hung on the wall. They sure are pretty little things but I have to say that "little" was certainly underlined when I hung the critter next to one of my Iowa whitetails from a better year:

I am also very pleased that my bride, a very good cook, has figured out ways to make the naturally sage laden meat of the antelope taste rather good though we did have one God awful experience with a batch of tacos … won’t do that again

Happy Holidays!

Mark
